Alex is the 40-18 year old, potty-mouthed, widowed mom of five now-mostly-grown kids. She likes to write about life.

Using humour and deep emotion to tell stories - and throwing in the odd opinion for good measure - she explores lessons learned the hard way.

Alex's novel - the latest one, and the only one she'll actually admit to having written - A Road To Joy, follows a widowed mother of five as she wakes up one day, says fuck it, and runs away from home.

It's inspired by true events; and somewhat embellished.
