Lunch with Mom: A Daughter's Soliloquy
Hi all,
I wish you all a healthy and good-reading New Year for 2025. I'd love to hear about your favorite memoir. Meanwhile I want to say I've just written my second memoir and my 28th book. Lunch with Mom: A Daughter's Soliloquy was a difficult write and I hope you take the time to check it out.
What's your favorite memoir?

“I have never experienced writers block and I've written every day since June 1972. But I have experienced the need to get up and walk around, eat ice cream, let ideas percolate, forget the story for a time, and then return to the page. Even the muse needs a vacation to rest up before she gives more of herself.”

Thanks sweetie. You have always been such a supporter of who I am and I thank you for that. You are so humble and giving. I hope your health has improved with your last surgery. Keep in touch, Jan
i love you jan i think and know you are a true soul nd i respect that 1 love
Thanks for the friend add, Jan xx looking forward to chatting books with you, and catching your reading updates in my newsfeed!
You have wonderful titles. I'm not usually a mystery reader but I love them on TV. Maybe your books can change my mind huh? My books can be checked out on www.JanMarquart.com. Hope to chat with you again soon.
Hi Jan,Thanks for sending a friend request to this fellow Goodreads author (mystery, in my case)! I hope you will put my books, A Real Basket Case, To Hell in a Handbasket, and the most recently released Deadly Currents, on your to-read list.
- Beth
