Karen M ClarkKaren Clark is a true Renaissance woman with a vast career ranging from an Italian-trained fashion designer, litigation paralegal, carpenter and wood floor mechanic to concert promoter, personal historian, landscape designer and IT/Word Processor at he ad agency that brought you the Pet Rock. Like most midlife women who have gone through the "Change," she now spends her time on artistic activities such as writing and spending time with her grandchildren-and yelling at politicians on television. Singing in Silence is her debut novel. Her next book is NestQuest, her memoir of the twelve years it took to write this historical novel while suffering a brain injury from workplace bullying which led to homelessness at age sixty. Her journey to find her own home led to wanting to know more about the history of her brave ancestor's quest for a home in America, culminating in a drive through England, Ireland and Scotland. That journey revealed Mayflower ancestors, including the pilot of that famous voyage and her ten-times great grandmother who was one of the original Separatists. She has learned to Trust the Journey.
