Susan drops truth bombs about being sixtyish and single, after 42 years of marriage.  With a keen eye for the absurd, she reveals her experiences with barfing dogs, terrorist grandchildren, unfortunate sex, bad Broadway plays, and complicit cousins.  She’s the wry yet wise neighbor who invites you to sit a spell on the porch as she regales you with funny stories.

Susan Luzader wrote for others throughout her marriage—newspapers, journals, corporations.  Now, needing a way to deal with an unexpected divorce (her husband started dating again), she writes and speaks for herself and for us, as she learns to find the funny side of life.

Becoming a published author of three books is as much a part of Susan’s story as tales of her new life. There is much to be learned about how you pick yourself up—again and again—ignoring that the publishing world wants nothing to do with over-the-hill rejected women.

Her three books, Wine and Cereal: An Irreverent Look at Sixtyish and Single: Volumes 1, 2, and 3 are now available so we can all laugh together.
