Pause: Women's Fiction by Sara Stamey

Dear Diary,

Shall we pause to take stock?

Female (liberated, at least from fraught marriage). Age 52, height 5'5", weight 120, bone density excellent, minimal cellulite, maximal hot flashes. One and ¿ breasts.

Months since sex: 27

Lindsey Friedland, former river-rafting guide and avid outdoorswoman, has hit the worst stretch of water she's ever faced: divorce from an abuser, breast cancer, menopause symptoms that her friends seem to have paddled serenely by. And she's lost sight of her dream of becoming an environmental journalist.

Lindsey needs to get her spark back.

Dear Diary, Disastrous blind dates so far: The walking cologne bottle. The "really want a gal to give me babies" guy. The pushy past-life reintegration facilitator.



Will Lindsey make it past the rocky shoals of family upheavals, job crises, sexism, and ageism... not to mention toxic love traps? Does "happily ever after" now mean settling for occasional (but hot!) sex with Mr. Maybe? Can she reclaim her journalism dream?

Dear Diary, I'm tired of being tragic. I'm sending off my article about the bulldozers versus the baby owls.

First Place, Somerset Award for Women's Fiction

"Sara Stamey does for fiction what Cheryl Strayed and Elizabeth Gilbert did for memoir-Pause gives a voice to women who are too often invisible in contemporary books. The unforgettable Lindsey Friedland weaves together humor and passion against the backdrop of the Pacific Northwest's natural beauty, using her unique voice to deliver a must-read novel about friendship, love, and killer hot flashes."

Autorenporträt
Award-winning author Sara Stamey's "Cybers Wild Card" series of science fiction novels with Berkley/Ace/Putnam netted a Locus Best First Novels listing along with positive reviews from Publishers Weekly, SF Chronicle, and others. She is listed in databases as an early Cyberpunk author along with Gibson and Stephenson, which tickles her. More recently, her psychic-suspense novel ISLANDS won the Chanticleer Paranormal Suspense Award and The Hollywood Book Festival Genre Award, and is described by reviewers as "an intellectual thriller" and "a superior suspense novel....a fast read, a stomping vivid ride." Her near-future thriller THE ARIADNE CONNECTION, a Chanticleer Global Thriller Grand Prize winner and Cygnus Speculative Fiction award winner, draws on her travels through the Greek islands and research into pandemics and geomagnetic reversals. "A rocket-paced thrill ride that delivers complex, engaging characters in a laser-sharp plot... while tapping into the deep roots of mythological tradition." (Chanticleer Reviews) "Pulses with admirable energy." (William Dietrich, NY Times bestselling author) Her novel PAUSE has won First Place in the Somerset Awards for Women's Fiction. "A must-read novel of friendship, love, and killer hot flashes." (bestselling author Mindy Klasky) Sara has indulged her lifelong wanderlust with extended travels in out-of-the-way corners of the globe (inspiring some of her novels); operating a nuclear reactor at Hanford; treasure hunting and teaching scuba in the Caribbean and Honduras; and owning a farm in Southern Chile. Now resettled in her native Northwest Washington, she taught creative writing for several years at Western Washington University. She stays grounded with her native-plant restoration project in her sprawling Squalicum Creek backyard, shared with wild critters and her cat, dog, and paleontologist husband Thor Hansen.
