Getting born is trickier than Spanky ever imagined.

Yearning for life, Spanky chooses Nina, a flighty actress just out of college, and Rick, a sax player who changes tires to get by, to be his parents. Only Nina seems to be hung up on her gay guy friend Pablo, and Nina’s best girlfriend Dink is hung up her! Will Nina and Rick get it together in time to conceive Spanky before he evaporates? And if this hurdle gets crossed, will they choose to keep him? If so, will they and their quarreling families learn to like him?

There’s not much Spanky can do but watch from afar while his fate plays out—and if that’s not scary enough—something else happens that makes Spanky have to completely reevaluate his expectations. He’s a girl!

A poignant, hilarious, unforgettable look at life, love, gender, and the essence of what makes us who we are.

The Middle of Somewhere

ForeWord Magazine's Book of the Year

Eadie T. Pratt sets out on a road trip in search of a new life and ends up in the middle of somewhere she never expected.

Start with one independent, urban lesbian who cashes out her life in San Francisco for a second-hand travel trailer and sets off to the Michigan Womyn's Music Festival in search of a new life. Add to this a broken-down '66 T-bird, a bunch of small-town Texas Baptists, a ton of fried food, and a church scandal. Pepper this with a hot love interest and a dash of greed, and what you get is Eadie T. Pratt's road trip gone awry.
