NO, IT’S NOT FOR KIDS BUT IT IS REAL LIFE

The message of the ebook  is REALLY for everyday heroes who are working class women over the age of 40, wondering where they fit in.

Their challenges bring up questions like:

  • Am I more than a wife and mother?
  • What else do I have to fulfill myself?  
  • What if I’m not married and I don’t have kids?
  • What does that say about me?
  • Am I still relevant if I’m not perceived as ‘desirable’ as I was in my 20’s?  
  • What if I decide to think and act differently about sex than my parents did?
  • What if I still love sex with a man but can’t find one that I like to be around for more than a week?  
  • What if I didn’t get a chance for a ‘higher education’? 
  • What if I don’t want to be a ‘high power’ executive? 
  • What if my child is hellbent on taking risks?
  • Am I still a good mom if he/she is?
  • Why do I have to work so damn hard?  
 
 
oh hell yeah

STORY NUTSHELLED

Alexine Cleans is a down-to-earth, fictional story about a recently fired 51 year old woman whose car just died and now she’s cleaning houses for a living; while her 14 year old son is away, somewhere, after a series of reckless adventures. 

This full spectrum view of her life includes dogs, fat thighs, online dating, sex, brown people, white people, and feeling relevant at her age, body mass index and annual income level. Quotes from Pulp Fiction, Eddie Murphy, Kids in the Hall and Stan Ridgeway, among others, pop into her head without the mention of Generation X.
