Pittsfield Author Published03:39PM / Tuesday, June 16, 2009
PITTSFIELD, Mass. - In the early 1970’s a group of high school students decided to hang out in an abandoned home, take some time getting high and have a nice evening out. That evening didn’t work out the way they hoped. Jeffrey E. Brace’s memoir, “Hope Deferred”, is now in print as one of a collection of true stories entitled Parent/Teen Stories: Without Judgment by Susan Clawson, it is the tale of a widowed father and son working out their lives in the void left by the mother’s death.
Susan Clawson’s first book in her groundbreaking series, Without Judgment, is a collection of short stories written by both teens and parents from around the world who have experienced troublesome times such as teen pregnancy, substance abuse, school and family issues, eating disorders, suicide, bullying, living on the streets and more. These stories are a tool to help others in turmoil realize that they are not alone in their circumstances and it’s okay to seek help without being judged or shunned. The book is presently available from the publisher, Strategic Book Publishing and will soon be out at Amazon, Barnes & Noble and Borders.
Brace lives in Pittsfield with his wife, Michele. He is secretary of the Berkshire Writers Room Board of Directors, facilitator of their Scriptwriting et al group, and editor of the monthly BWR Newsletter. He has written for The Pittsfield Gazette as well as iBerkshires.com and been published in The Berkshire Review.
Susan Clawson lives in Boxford, Massachusetts, with her husband and 15-year-old daughter. She has two older children who live on their own. Years ago, Clawson attended a required seminar while her older daughter was in a teen help program and found a clearer perspective on her own situation through hearing others’ stories.
