Eafat Newton Imagines the Demise of a Children’s Book Author, April 7th

eafatV1Giving Up Candy describes the heart-breaking decision a terminally ill author must make about the legacy of her best-selling book series.  Will young adult writer, April Springer end the “life” of her character Candy, when she succumbs to end-stage breast cancer, or will she consider the option of allowing a ghost writer to keep her intrepid young heroine alive?

This first-draft dark dramedy (think Terms of Endearment meets The Big C) with a fantasy twist, drew a large crowd of reviewers excited to see it come to fruition as a feature.
