Jeanne Sandberg Fuller has done it once again. The author of The Day the Bathroom Ceiling Fell, Nice Girls Are the Best Kissers, and Tales of a Closet Belly Dancer presents her new book, Creative Writhing, a compilation of her work that has won awards, been published in newspapers, magazines and those not yet in print. This anthology of stories and adventures is told as only she can in her friendly, down-home voice. Each selection is carefully and cheerfully written with exquisite language and charm. They range from sailing on the new power boat with hubby and the kids (What could possibly go wrong here?) to Snaggletooth, the cat named Pusso (yes, Pussocat). Jeanne plunks them down in front of you just as if you were sitting across from her by the fire. This book is full of stand-alone pieces that fit together like pieces in a puzzle. If you have read Fullers other books, youll know you are in for a treat with this one (Diane Roush, international English teacher).
Light and lively. Part travelogue, part reminisces, part belly dances. You name it, it's here. Written in Jeanne Sandberg Fuller's delightful style this third book is a look at her adult life. The first two, The Day the Bathroom Ceiling Fell and Nice Girls Are the Best Kissers, are the stories of her childhood and young adult life and are also written in her inimitable if quirky style. Fuller gives her impressions as a dancer and artist as she visits Egypt, England, Greece, and Istanbul. The anecdotes of her family on these trips make us feel we're right there with her. She has been an avid fairy tale, myth, and history fan from the very beginning which makes the travels come alive in a most unique way. "Whether an armchair traveler or a world traveler this book will take you places as never seen before." -Diane Yost Roush, B.A. Albion College Retired International English Teacher
Readers who are homesick for small-town America fifty years ago, when the living was simpler and more family-oriented, will be delighted with these charming memoirs, which are full of humor and pathos, familiar settings, and real-life characters who leap off the page with vitality. Fuller's style is both original in vocabulary and homespun in approach, convincing us that we are there watching her grow up. The relatively uneventful, but extremely human picture she paints with words will capture the imagination of all who remember their own childhoods with longing for the less-complicated, but utterly satisfying life of those times.

This charming coming-of-age memoir will capture your heart from the very first page. From small town American values and parental attitudes to group dating and popular fashion trends, Fullers crisp, clear, and sometimes quirky, writing style will keep you spellbound. She refreshingly presents an in-depth look at her life in America from post WWII to the beginning of the Korean War when times and lives were a bit simpler. Her characters are real, her verbal pictures are clear and her adventures are pure. A delightful read from the beginning. -Diane Yost Roush, B.A. Albion College, retired International English Teacher.
