Synopsis

What's "The Scoop on Ruth"? When you open the book you will enter my world and discover what I have been about. It is a tell all, an honest revelation. That world begins with "All in the Family' and the people and events where growing up happens. In "Sense and Nun-sense" you will be privy to some events even to this day hidden from Sister Superior- like "The Chocolate Cover-Up". Then "Along the Way" there are defining moments and people that ultimately influence us to become who we are. Yes, even when a good Catholic girl flunks Communion. The final section "The 'P' Source" began in the novitiate when no talent me was encouraged to write "gospels". My creative pen found other modes of expression, into writing prayers, greetings, or capturing events. And, there is room for your story to come alive here. It's because I was a copy cat. I borrowed Jesus' style. So, if the parable fits . . .

About this title

About the Author

This woman holds some "oldest" claIms: oldest sibling of four, dyonne in a band of fifteen postulants, oldest in a long time friendship. Each claim has something to say in the sections of her book, The Scoop on Ruth. I am this woman. Adding to the feel of my book is the variety of her lived experiences as a sales clerk, Spanish teacher, Campus Minister and over forty years as a Grey Nun of the Sacred Heart. I invite you to enjoy my stories, their humor, light heartedness and tenderness. Then, as you do, take a step beyond and recall your own stories. The touches of Scripture will allow you to make that leap.
