Sky Eccles has a father who is Mormon and a mother who is Protestant. Her father's roots go back to the founder of his church and the pioneers; her mother's roots are foggy and forgotten. Because she was born and raised with a double identity, Sky sees her surroundings in duplicate, like a Kodak color print sitting beside its own filmy negative. A new career in journalism is giving her clarity of vision

Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

Skylar Eccles is growing up in Utah as the child of a mixed marriage between a Mormon father and a Protestant mother. As a "half-breed," she faces constant, subtle pressure from her Mormon relatives to convert and witnesses her Protestant relatives' disdain for the Mormons. Sky's struggle with her belief in God and her place in life is offset by her grandmother Harriet's memories of converting to Mormonism and making a place for herself in her new community. Howard-Johnson strengthens her novel with behind-the-scenes details of Mormon life and history in a book suitable for all collections, particularly those where sf author Orson Scott Card's religious books are popular.

I brought my life's experience to a writing career when most people would have been considering retirement. You have heard Sinatra's song, "I've been a poet, a pauper..." well, so have I. And I have put every bit of it to good use with my poetry, fiction, and multi award-winning HowToDoItFrugally Series of books for writers, now almost nearly fully republished by Modern History Press.

I love to travel for inspiration and for career building and have studied writing at Cambridge University in the UK, Herzen University in St. Petersburg, RU, and Charles University in Prague. Come play with me and learn with me. I'm reviving my newsletter with the release of the 3rd edition of "The Frugal Editor." Subscribe at https://howtodoitfrugally.com and join me on Facebook and Twitter. It's not hard to find me with my hyphenated name!

Here's to writers and readers everywhere!

Best,
