Produktbeschreibung

The first in a 7-part contemporary fiction novel serial, "A Life Singular" tells the story of a successful man writing his autobiography. In essence a love story, "A Life Singular" deals with mental illness, the choices we make between right and wrong, and how the one affects the other.

Some of life's lessons are harder to learn, and some amazing opportunities easier to take. The trick is always to understand the consequences of our choices, before it's too late...

The title volume, "A Life Singular", starts the journey. What do you do when you lose the one who gave your life meaning? You write about it. You tell the world how amazing it is to love and be loved by someone so special, what love helps you achieve and how it makes you stronger.

Jeff Diamond had built a life of influence, adulation and wealth by making the right choices for the right reasons. He lived by the law of reciprocity, a lesson learned on the streets as a teenager with nothing but an unquenchable thirst for knowledge. Plagued by the scars of a violent childhood, he created his vision and fought for it. And once he no longer needed to fight for himself, he fought for others.

Yet when Jeff's dream girl is taken from him and their children by the ignorant act of a jealous misfit from his own home town, the millionaire realises just how far he has come. Why had he succeeded when so many like him fail? It wasn't complicated. The secret lay in the endless pursuit of love and wisdom; life's two magic ingredients. Now Lynn was gone, he resolves to use his remaining days to account for their life in a way that would inspire young people to make his type of choice rather than García's.

Then after their story was written, he would be free to go after her, to begin the whole incredible journey over again. Everyone has a life singular: one; unique; extraordinary.

Sales proceeds go to two Australian non-profits helping disadvantaged young people further their education.

Autorenporträt

Lorraine Pestell was born in London and has had a successful career as an Information Technology professional in the UK, US, Europe, Singapore, and more recently Australia. Lorraine currently resides in Queensland with her rescued Belgian Malinois, Nikki,

Although still working full-time, Lorraine is a passionate volunteer for several organisations and an activist for social justice issues. She finds volunteering time and energy to those less fortunate is an effective antidote to life-long depression and the symptoms of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.

The idea for "A Life Singular" originated when Lorraine was 14 years old, and the story has continued to develop in fits and starts since then, whenever time and life events permitted. However, three years ago, a new element of the plot triggered a sudden urge to complete the novel, and since then the story has evolved into an epic, multi-part contemporary fiction saga.

Sales proceeds of "A Life Singular" go to The Smith Family (http://www.thesmithfamily.com.au) and the School Volunteer Program (http://www.svp.org.au).
