The Old Lady in the Newspaper Stephen Jon Schares

I write about the theatre of the absurd, of which there is no shortage of subjects or topics. This is a book steeped in satire. It is not for the feint of heart, or the humorless drones that plague our world. You know who you are.

Be forewarned. I don't write like you do. Read the Disclaimer--This book does not contain political correctness.

The Old Lady doesn't tell people what they want to hear. She tells them what they need to hear. If you have a problem with the Old Lady, take it up with her. But trust me, she doesn't care.

Freda is her own woman. She is one of a kind, and proud of it. She tells it like it is--The World According to Freda. People living on the fringes of their minds now have a Messiah. Just not the one they hoped for.

As for me, I'm just the conduit. As any good writer knows, once you create a character, they take on a life of their own. I just try to keep up.

P. S. This book did not employ sensitivity readers.
