Go to www.lisaholdren.com for the new 'truth to some extent' posts. I've decided to start telling the story of a woman searching for her father. She never knew him, he left before she was born, but there is a void -- one every adopted person feels -- but more, he DID NOT WANT her or her mother. He made no arrangements for her, he contributed nothing, he moved on. And now she is going to find him. Why? She asks herself that sometimes. Then she wonders if he looks like her, or sounds like her. She wonders if they have any mannerisms or behaviors that are the same. She doesn't look like her mother, so she must look like him. Who is this man. Why did he leave? How can he live with himself?
The search began in earnest a decade ago and she's still searching for answers. Her dream is to spend 3 days on a cruise to Bermuda, just the two of them, side by side in deck chairs, getting to know each other.
Let's see where the story leads.

Hi, Lisa !
That sounds like a great story.
I'm working on a story about a teenager in search of her MOTHER. Mine is a murder mystery and it's turning out pretty good, but I'm stuck right now, so I'm working on something else in the meantime so I can give myself a break and then be able to go back and look at it with a fresh perspective.
