About the Book

ICE ON THE WING: Essays On Life And Other Difficult Situations began as a collection of columns about the personal, political, and parenting experiences of a thirty-and then-forty-something writer who experienced the world in fifty shades of black. Except when it came to her daughter, who reminded the author that every now and then, the angels do prevail...

Originally published in a variety of newspapers and magazines, these columns centered on author Shalynn Ford Womack's experiences as a working single parent who homeschooled her gifted daughter, while also taking care of an aging, disabled parent. Her struggles with relationships, money, marriage, and divorce will resonate against the experiences of an entire generation of women like herself.

Shalynn Ford Womack wrote these columns with passion, a fierce intelligence, and often with some anger at the injustice she observed in daily life. There was also a softer side to many of these pieces, often revealing a dry, almost sardonic wit. There is a voice at work in these columns; one that is, in turns, loving, angry, sad, funny, poignant, bittersweet, and longing. Sometimes within the same paragraph, and usually within the 750 word limit imposed by her editors...


About the Author: Shalynn Ford Womack is a freelance writer whose op-ed, travel, and feature stories have appeared in The Moline (IL) Dispatch, The Huntsville (AL) Times, The Tennessean, The Tullahoma (TN) News, The Tennessee Register, Nashville Parent, Home Education Magazine, and elsewhere. She holds a Master's Degree in Clinical Psychology from Middle Tennessee State University.
