Hi, I'm Carole Carson. I moved to France at 80 to re-invent myself once again—and to write novels!
Over the decades, I've played many roles: wife, mother, daughter, grandmother, educator, entrepreneur, community organizer, and survivor. But I’ve always been a writer.
I've published over 800 articles between the Nevada Union newspaper, AARP, and other websites and written two non- fiction books.
At GMASBlog, you'll find posts on whatever catches my interest and content about my four-book fiction series, starting with Blackbird.
The second novel in the quartet (My Mother’s Daughter), third (The Perfect Mother) and fourth (The First and Last Lesson) will be published later in 2023 and represent my vitae opus.
I began writing Blackbird in 1966, the first in a four-book fictionalized memoir chronicling the life of Jane Bertram. Love, loss, abuse, abandonment, hope, seduction and despair give color and texture to her story. Telling Jane’s story made me richer, freer, happier and more loving. May readers receive the same blessings.
