Evelyn Cole's first stories never made it to paper. They filled her head before she learned how to spell, entertaining her like a built-in television studio. However, a no nonsense New England heritage prevailed and she became, in her words, "a successful cook, failed entrepreneur, successful professor, failed webmaster, successful ping-pong champion, failed golfer, successful traveler, lover, mother and occupant of this planet." Along the way she published poetry, articles, short stories and inter-curricular text book. For the sheer joy of it, she has written six novels, none of which fits into a category. She says, "The process of writing a novel forces the writer to examine all facets of what it means to be human. If the process is true, the product will be."
