Passing: A Rough First Draft (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This is a work of historical fiction based on the daring escape from slavery of Anna Marie Weems. The protagonists take their escape from the point of that historical event, and run in a similar direction, with different twists. This is the very rough first draft of the novel, with much more drafting work needed, especially after the middle of this manuscript, of the novel which is being fashioned out of what began as the Ann & Anna series on the ShiraDest blog. It is being released in stages both to ensure that this work survives the author, and also to show one writing process, from initial concept through the various drafts of a novel.

Autorenporträt

About the Author:

Shira Destinie Jones, MPhil, MAT mathematics, BSCS, has experienced housing and food insecurity as a child, lived in projects in Oxon Hill, MD and Anacostia, DC, struggled with gender strife at the US Naval Academy, and dealt with class and color line divisions in Baltimore. She has worked in developing countries and rich countries, studied economic social policy, and taught on the importance of history and shared governance through walking tours, presentations, and classroom lessons. Straddling several worlds as a polyglot has allowed her to hear in their own words from rich and poor people in Turkey, England, Mexico, and France. Comparing that with experiences from her own background of origin has led her to use her studies to create a plan with the potential to build cooperation between all parts of our society, in the interest of the common good.
