Memoir of a freelance artist who ignored safety tips from her Spirit Guides. Life on this planet and clues from another dimension examine: art, reincarnation, relationships, childhood trauma, redemption and the love of good dogs.
I wish I could have your life... but only for two weeks, said a friend with a salaried job and a pricier (but less eclectic) wardrobe.
Mernie's life was supposed to be more enviable. Spirit Guides on the Celestial Side helped plan it for this planet. A roller coaster track for this incarnation was laid out as a carefully charted course. Then it was suggested the first hairpin turn was too sharp and a bolt might be loose. Ignoring safety advice from sages sure enough, Mernie's little car flew off the track to careen through a very different 'theme park' than expected.
Humorous and cautionary tales take you on rides much safer to read than experience. You'll race on sailboats, ski on acid and live with showgirls in Las Vegas. You'll share puff pastries with angels and you might face some fears. Mernie also shows you how to have a career in the creative arts without a real job. Her freelance vocation in both commercial and fine art has spanned forty years.This is a also a story of redemption, so hang in there. (Mernie is rather unlovely in chapters 5-8, but she does eventually get sober.)
An artist's 4th Quarter Review looks at stories and paintings to see a bigger picture-inspired by life in this world and glimpses of another. Being only marginally adept with the Cosmic Message function, Mernie keeps trying to hear to the angels... and the dogs.
Quality paperback includes 20 black & white illustrations by the author.
