Produktbeschreibung

This is Mrs. Mitchell's award-winning novel What Happened to Suzy, the 25th Anniversary Edition. For its' grit, for its' real life circumstances, What Happened to Suzy took the nation by storm and was added to the nation's Library of Congress and can be requested in the Adams Building reading room. What Happened to Suzy fully describes the story of a very young girl looking for love. Abused at home by a fatigued mother and, by the ongoing abuse of an older brother, who was put in charge of 16 siblings, all this young child wants to do is escape "the boys room," and survive. Many mainstream publisher's rejected this novel, because the concept of one child going through hell was susceptible to turn readers off. But the nation was stronger than that earning Suzy well-deserved praise!. Next, at school, Suzy is called "The Blob" when no kid wants to play with the sad child. Realizing her own freedom is contingent on her success; Suzy, is a great student. She had one champion in her life, her maternal grandmother, "Mamus," who loved Suzy dearly, until she dies of bone cancer at age 51. This is a great story of survival and how one can overcome the worse kind of circumstances, if one believes truly in self-love. Suzy is a true inspiration to all who have been maligned. Love, healing and self-acceptance, has become a powerful force in Suzy's life. Today, Suzy is Carol Denise Mitchell. She has won two-coveted books awards, and loves to write about characters that survive!

Autorenporträt

On June 21, 2023, Carol Denise Mitchell received a Bay Area's Resilience and Determination (RAD) Hero Award, presented by the Alameda County Community Consumer Advisory Board; the author called this one of the proudest days of her life! On July 13, 2021, the veteran writer became a bestselling author when her coming-of-age story, "Noah, True Love Never Dies," hit #1 on Kindle Unlimited. Ms. Mitchell, who released her latest novel, Unstable, in November 2022, was thrilled when "Noah" and "Ruthless Pamela Jean" posted on the top 100 free Kindle Unlimited books simultaneously. "Ruthless Pamela Jean" also won the Readersfavorite 2022 Honorable Mention book award.

"CD Mitchell" was born in Los Angeles, California, on May 12, 1955. One of 16 children, Mitchell, is the daughter of the late Zebbie Thomas Charles, Sr., and Tasceaie Carise Charles.

Born during the noteworthy era of the Civil Rights Movement, Mitchell recalled how living in an urban setting in Compton and Watts, California, during an era in American history when growing up in the "Ghetto," became a motivating influence behind her award-winning writing career. Mitchell witnessed police brutality and disenfranchisement when, during six days of rioting in August 1965, those insurrections and the after-effects of such insurgencies changed her life.

Mitchell was encouraged by her mother, a Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN), who insisted urban ruin was an opportunity for growth. Notwithstanding, Mitchell grew steadily, leaving her imprint on fighting illiteracy and caring for her father, a World War II veteran who could not read or write. Mitchell wrote many notable novels, including the acclaimed book "Your Rights: What Employers Do Not Want You to Know," which remains the worker's go-to reference guide for employees, lawyers, and unions throughout the United States work industry. In 1983, Mitchell chronicled her early life occurrences in a Readersfavorite, award-winning novel, "What Happened to Suzy," winning nationwide praise for its' message of healing and hope. The book was inducted into the nation's Library of Congress's Jefferson and Washington Room(s) archives.

Mitchell, the winner of Pomona California's 1973 Miss Congeniality Award, sponsored by JC Penney's, returned to her writing roots in Oakland, California, in November 2022, with the releases of Unstable and Letters to Carol, which both chronicle her struggles with mental health issues and chronic ho...
