With the help of an attractive graduate student, Kate endures a summer with her overpowering artist father and gains the courage to pursue her own artistic goals.
Zibby Oneal approaches writing as a visual artist, thinking in terms of color and composition. Her creative process begins with a vividly imagined character and setting, visualized as clearly as a painting. This strong mental imagery is essential for her to begin crafting her narratives. Her desire to create her own stories stems from a childhood fascination with the magic of language, nurtured by a mother who read aloud extensively.
