Starchild: A Short Story

Starchild is a poignant mother-daughter story that explores the complex inner lives of women.

When Candace's best friend loses her battle with cancer, Annie, her mother, acts in uncharacteristic ways, seemingly less concerned than ever about what her friends and neighbors think of her.

Candace is worried that her mother has reached an emotional breaking point.

However, something deeper lingers beneath the surface, and times of hardship have a way of bringing us closer together than ever.
