Sinopsis:

Acerca del autor: I, Connie Mary, am the only survivor left to tell the story of my mother and sister, whose deaths continue to remain undocumented cases of Domestic Violence in Connecticut. Despite being profoundly dyslexic, my life is nothing short of a miracle. I was privileged to attend The Norwich Free Academy where Alan K. Driscoll changed my life in every way a good teacher can save a student. Despite the odds driven against me, I obtained an Associate Degree at Mohegan Community College, a Masters in Special Education and a Sixth Year as a Reading Consultant from The University of Connecticut. Along the way, my path led to The Daughters of The Holy Spirit in Putnam, where I became an Associate. I have been honored to work as a Special Education teacher for over 30 years in Connecticut teaching wonderful children of all ages. My years as a monthly columnist for the Norwich Bulletin under the creative expertise of Raymond Hackett gave me the depth and expertise required to write a novel of this magnitude. My passion will always be focused on the rights of every child to live a happy and secure life, free from abuse. I live in New England in the middle of sacred pines with my husband, two daughters and a slew of animals, including the Robins who come back every spring to have babies. I wrote The Lonely Nest in the hope I could change the way the world views Domestic Violence and Incest. I wanted the world to know that Domestic Violence and Incest could never survive without silence from its victims, along with those who indifferently watch. My mantra: On your journey, do not share the same path as your abuser. When we resort to hate to justify our pain, we become our abusers. In this novel, I purposely left out many words my father used as a channel of hate. Instead of returning hate for hate, use your pain to help others and follow the light. I wish you peace, love and most important to find your beautiful voice. Follow me on Facebook: Look for The Lonely Nest.
