New Book Crisis Mode released on March 30th 2004

Four Short stories about women facing traumatic experiences.

BOLINGBROOK, IL (PRWEB) May 11, 2004 --Crisis Mode is a powerful and moving collection of four short stories: Whats a Woman to Do," Family Meetings," Family Secrets," and Letting Go." These stories relate the experiences and feelings of women as they face difficult times in their lives from unplanned pregnancy to spousal abuse, terminally ill parents, and more.

Larks brings to life many of the issues and situations that each of us must face at some point in our lives. She brings the characters to life in a realistic and heart-touching manner that takes readers straight to the core of this multi-faceted world Larks has created.

Crisis Mode is an impassioned collection with a complex yet meaningful host of emotions displayed throughout. Larks embraces womanhood in every aspect of the word from mother-daughter relationships to sibling rivalry, romantic relationships, and more.

Cheryl Katherine Wash, author of My Private Room, says, Larks prose sings with the power of each womans spirit."
