Judith Marshall

Judith Marshall is a third generation native Californian, born St. Helena, California and raised in Concord, CA. Although fiction, her debut novel "Husbands May Come and Go but Friends are Forever" (winner of the Jack London Prize awarded by the California Writers Club) is informed by the author's own experiences. She, too, has experienced the devastating effects of being laid off, losing a dear friend and has been blessed with the friendship of a group of women she has known since high school.

A mixture of hilarity and heartbreak, this story is a celebration of fresh hopes, second chances, and the anything-but-simple art of relationships. The book optioned by a Hollywood producer.

Ms. Marshall's second novel, Staying Afloat, is a story borne of marriage and lust set against the responsibility of family. It explores a key life question: Can a woman ever really know her heart until she faces tragedy?
