About the Book

Against the Current continues the life-story of Victoria Farnsworth during her senior high school year and the following nine months. Amidst the hardship of moving several times, changing high schools, and trying to earn a living, Vicki falls in love. Young love should be carefree, happy, romantic, and filled with hope. Vicki's new love was the exact opposite! Discover how Vicki faced every challenge and held fast to her convictions. Relive with her, the most heart-rending year of her life. Discover for yourself, ways to cope with your own personal challenges, by learning from a young eighteen-year-old girl.
About the Author: Victoria Farnsworth was born in California, but grew up on a beautiful island in the Pacific Northwest. She spent three years in California as a teenager, but returned to Washington to graduate from high school. It was during her senior year that she met her husband, and after his return from Viet Nam, they married. They have spent 46 years together and have three married daughters and eight beautiful grandchildren. Victoria has moved to Payson and is enjoying her retirement surrounded by the natural beauty of the mountains in central Arizona. Her first work was published in the Reader's Digest in August of 1983. She spent the next several years writing poems for family, friends, and church, but never endeavoring to publish her work. During her career as a swim instructor, she was also busy raising a family of three girls. As is every mother, she was busy driving girls to lessons, sports, and church activities. When the girls all left home for school or marriage, she spent time in serious prayer and contemplation. She then embarked on a new career as Clara the Clown. Seven years were spent clowning around up and down the West Coast. As always, she was busy with church service and managed to be a Relief Society President during this time. Her new career ended when a car accident forced her to retire. After becoming a Master Gardener she started a new business doing landscape design. Unfortunately, another car accident forced her to once again give up something she loved. Writing continued to be a hobby. During her ten-year membership in the Glove & Trowel Garden Club, she spent four years as secretary and writing the quarterly update of the club's activities. In June of 2011, Victoria had an article published in the Northwest Landscape Professional magazine about butterfly gardening. So many people read the article and commented that she should write professionally; a seed was planted! She kept an online journal of her life in Mexico and continues with a website devoted to her new life and home in Payson, Arizona. Now in her retirement, the time has come to share her life experiences. One book could not begin to hold 60 plus years of unforgettable events; hence, this work will take many volumes to tell the story of an ordinary woman living an extraordinary life.
