It has been updated and expanded and is approximately 290 pages/88,000 words.
"Notes from Nadir" is an
amusing and poignant look at a Los Angeles-based writer who returns to her
Midwestern home due to financial difficulties. Moving back in with Mom in a
semi-retirement community, she looks for jobs that pay far less than the wages
she earned back in L.A. From working at
a bakery where she hopes to get to know the boss a little better, to finding a job
at an online auction site, the author introduces us to a wacky assortment of
characters. Along the way, she deals with Mom's declining health, unsympathetic
relatives, and rediscovers a place she left many years ago when she dreamt of
becoming a screenwriter. The narrator struggles with being in Nadir, both the
place and the state of mind.
