Love, Loss, and Gym-Class Chaos: A Midlife Journey Redefined with Author Ruth F Stevens

My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is Ruth F Stevens, author of the book My Year of Casual Acquaintances. Ruth F. Stevens likes to create stories that will make readers laugh and cry. A former public relations executive in New York and Los Angeles, she is a produced playwright and award-winning author of three novels: Stage Seven, My Year of Casual Acquaintances, and The Unexpected Guests. Ruth is a member of the Women’s Fiction Writers Association and the Dramatists Guild of America and serves as a volunteer and acquisitions editor for AlzAuthors. Ruth lives in Torrance, California with her husband. In her spare time, she enjoys travel, hiking, hip-hop and fitness classes, yoga, Broadway musicals, wine tasting, leading a book club, and visiting her grandsons in NYC. In my book review, I stated My Year of Casual Acquaintances by Ruth F Stevens is a wonderful contemporary women's fiction. We meet Mar, a recently divorced woman who drops everything from her past and tries to start over. However, she has zero intention of becoming serious with anyone - neighbors, friends, or dates! We follow Mar for a year as she finds and meets different people on her journey of rediscovery. Some relationships last and others fall to the wayside. But in each, Mar learns something about herself. However, she isn't truly happy because she isn't allowing real connection. The question is - can she? Will she? I laughed and cheered and sighed over Mar. She has a big heart but is afraid to let anyone see it. As someone who has had to start over (on more than one occasion), I understand her reluctance. But like Mar, I've learned it is worth putting yourself on the line.
