The neon waves crash over me, pummelling this body of mine into the earth that has mocked me for the lifetime I have been begrudgingly granted. Within this destructive water are stories that feature people like me, lost, lonely and afraid of what lies ahead. "I was 27 when I first told the woman of my dreams that I loved her. It was the one regret that has haunted me for so long..." The voice the water channels is of someone much like me, love-struck. Love broke me; leaving me to wonder why I can never be loved in the same way that I loved. Does this change the feelings I hold for her? No... It just makes me realise what I knew all along. As much as I want to save them from ruin, I finally understand that's not my purpose... They'll have to save themselves.

"It's Gonna Be OK" takes the reader on a journey. It explores the author's experiences as a spunky little girl, through turbulent teenage years, and finally emerging as a maturing young woman while living on the Seminole and Saint Louis, Oklahoma and Texas oil leases during the 1930's and '40's. Laugh and cry with the family as they move from boomshack to boomshack and finally "Toots" is sure Mama and Daddy are rich. Their latest boomshack has an inside bathroom! Share the adventures of "Toots" and all those gritty people who became "family" while living in the camps. This red-dirt experience molded their beings, and for many, will never leave their hearts.
