Dibs!" is what Sissy says the first time she finds Paolo in her camera lens, and her young heart is caught by his essence of loneliness. By Way of Water is a coming of age story between a Mexican boy and a young Carolina girl who draws broken animals and people like a magnet into her circle of healing and care. Together they sail the Lockwood Folly River into the Intra Coastal Waterway and discover the joy and pain of caring too much and the significant difference between being loved and loving. By Way of Water begins where Borrowed Things ends. However, it is not a sequel but a companion piece, each able to stand alone. At the very beginning, Paul opens Sissy's journals, and the reader steps back in time with him to 1965. Her mother's memories intermingle with theirs and, along with their own adventures, we relive the amazing time of Civil Rights, Vietnam, assassinations, and the Beatles. Doris Schneider's tender story is set against the growth and tumult of our country during the 1960'S. The culture of the times as it was shaped by the young and the young as they were shaped by the times is beautifully related in this book. If you were there, read it and remember. If you were not, read it and experience, through its characters, the emotions and vigor of those brave times. Jayne Davis Wallauthor of Winter GoldfinchIn a time honored tradition of Southern women's fiction, By Way of Water births more than young love, hope and faith. It layers teen dreams and conflict within a countercultural revolution of racism, sexual exploration and social tension. The end result is a palette of vivid color and tender remembrance set against the beautiful waterway of coastal North Carolina. A superb story from start to finish. Angela Beach Silverthorneauthor of Promises Seeded Inside, Cries of Innocence and the award winning book, Depression Cookies. This stunning novel accurately reflects the nation's troubled emotions during the Vietnam War and the assassinations of Martin Luther Kin.

Borrowed Things takes place in North Carolina, alternating between Durham and Pearl, a fictional town on the Lockwood Folly River. It traces a year in the separate yet symbiotic lives of five characters whose paths cross and sometimes connect. Wishing to reinvent herself, Anne Gray sells her Durham home to Noah Levinson, who also negotiates for the temporary use of her things and their stories in the desperate hope they will infuse some of Anne's spirit and resilience into his ailing wife, Elizabeth. Anne finds a new home in the dying town of Pearl where she releases the memories of two failed marriages as she sails the waters of the Inner Coastal Canal with a haunted Latino priest and an elderly woman who rides a bicycle and wears No Fear t-shirts. Through Anne's not-so-divine intervention, Father Paul and old Marjorie unveil their long held secrets, and come face to face with the embodiment of their abandoned hope. At the same time, back in Durham, Noah and Elizabeth struggle with their marriage as they endure the myriad treatments for her cancer, finding diversion and an objective look at themselves as they read Anne's stories. Throughout, Anne and Noah exchange emails that eventually threaten the peace they both seek. Anne is finally forced to come to terms with her past and accept or reject the opportunity for a last and lasting love. Borrowed Things honestly addresses issues about relationships and the struggle to bridge the gap between a conservative upbringing and a changing, sometimes permissive society while maintaining a sense of humor. Tia Bach, co-author of the award-winning Depression Cookies wrote about the manuscript, "Borrowed Things is Southern women's fiction at its best, capturing your heart within the first few pages. Anne Gray is a rare character, equal parts strength and compassion. Readers will identify with her struggles and lingering questions as they enjoy her exploits and journey toward friendship and love. But most of all, they will find them.
