About the Author:
"dayclean" marks the debut of author e.r. dinsmoor. Raised in El Paso, Texas, the author attended the University of Texas El Paso with a major in piano performance and a minor in creative writing, studying short stories for one semester with the late, great Raymond Carver. At one point during the semester, Mr. Carver summoned Ms. Dinsmoor into his office and asked what she wanted to be when she grew up! Ms. Dinsmoor replied, "I don't know. Got any suggestions?" He replied, "Yes. Get married." e.r. dinsmoor also spent four semesters studying William Shakespeare with Dr. Maureen Potts. If the author hadn't used class time for sleeping, it really would've been two semesters. Even so, Dr. Potts instilled in the author a long-lasting love for the Bard. Currently, the debut author is hard at work on her second novel, set in the beautiful town of St. Albans, Vermont. She lives in Pennsylvania with her devoted husband and five of her six children, three of whom are Animal-Americans.
Review:
"Titled for the local concept of "dayclean"--the promising moment just before sunrise--this warm-hearted novel avows the redemptive power of love, life, and starting over. The characters are likeable; their language ripples and shimmers . . . Moving forward, dayclean might be the best option after all." -ForeWord Clarion Reviews
"[A]n attention-grabbing mystery with a quirky cast of characters set in a steamy Southern setting."-Kirkus Reviews
