About Me
I am the author of seven novels for adults, three children's books and one young adult novel, as well as a syndicated columnist and a contributing editor for the new Disney parenting magazine, Wondertime. I think this site is brilliant, and hope you'll visit mine, jacquelynmitchard.com. I live in the Midwest with my husband and seven children, and hope to see my latest book 'The Breakdown Lane' as a movie in 2007, as my first, 'The Deep End of the Ocean' was filmed in 1998. Please feel free to correspond with me! I love to talk about books!

Author Comments
Everyone who has a child, wants a child or loves a child should read 'An Empty Lap,' as it is one of the most moving, sometimes brutally honest portrayals of a loving marriage under stress, and the healing power of parenthood, ever written.

I'm the author. If I may be so bold, start by reading the essay in 'A Love Like No Other,' then read 'The Deep End of the Ocean' and 'The Breakdown Lane.'
