Jane Ganahl

My delicious, beautiful and talented friend, Jane Ganahl has written a book, "Naked on the Page: the Misadventures of My Unmarried Midlife" and started a blog -- Musings of a happy spinster). I can't wait to see her. Tara, Mom and I will definitely be at Third Place Books on Sunday.

"Risking ridicule, Ganahl refuses to let men and an age-obsessed culture define her sexuality. And the reader cheers, 'you go, girl!'"
-- USA Today

"Ganahl's writing is sassy, fiery (the prose equivalent of her red hair and love of rock and roll), and many readers will nod in amused sympathy as she recounts her disastrous forays into the world of online dating or laments the difficulty of looking sexy in a sensible heel. But the book isn't all self-deprecating humor. Reeling from the one-two punch of her mother's and sister's deaths and struggling to accept her daughter's increasing independence, Ganahl tackles the bigger issues as well. Ganahl may be occasionally, infuriatingly self-defeating, but more often she's pluck and charm personified. Readers, meanwhile, will enjoy Ganahl's romantic portrayal of her beloved San Francisco - a character as alive and fully developed as any in the book."
