One evening, I watched a segment on the E! Network about a personal shopper to the stars. I thought it would be amusing to create a character who does this for a living in Hollywood, but who is tired of the constant whiny demands of her clientele, and wants to give it all up. Judith Collington was born! She's in her mid-thirties and has a 13-year-old daughter, who isn't exactly thrilled about the idea, but goes along with it.

Check out my other novel, too. Radium Halos, a Novel about the Radium Dial Painters. It's historical fiction, based on a true story.
