Slow Stories

Laura Bennett, thirty-nine, drives three hours to her son Jonah's college apartment — coolers of home cooking, bags of cleaning supplies, anything to keep her hands busy while she's there.

A slow-burn standalone story, ending with the visit where she arrives with nothing at all.

A Wonders of My World Story
It was the summer of 2013. I'd had an epiphany. I'm an author. I could do this from anywhere! So why was I doing it from a basement in Seattle? By July, I was in an F150 and a travel trailer with no destination but the road in front of me. This memoir is based on the true story of my travel down U.S. Highways since then and my life before.
