About the Book

About the Book Face Your Fears is a novel about a contemporary Canadian family. It is a mainstream family drama about the challenges of everyday life. You will meet Georgie, Bob, their eight kids, their extended family, friends and neighbours in Bell's Corners. One night at their monthly Chinese buffet dinner, all ten family members pull the same fortune from their cookies at the Panda Buffet. "You must face your fears," they all read. Within minutes, bad things start happening. Young Eddie, the most athletic of the family, is hit by a car, leaving him with two broken legs. Five-year-old Jasmine disappears while her brother Neil is watching her, and only the tiny Olivia can find and rescue her twin. To make it through a month of turmoil and challenges, the family members must lean on each other and tap unknown inner resources. The story is meant to appeal to a broad audience. It contains romance, mystery, a stalker, human drama, history and comedy. There are no dirty bombs, just dirty dishes. Teens may enjoy the story as much as their aunts and mothers. Like some modern mysteries, it also contains a peppering of original recipes. There are original illustrations by the author and her daughters. This story is told with stories inside the story. Although it is mainly set in modern Bell's Corners, the story roams over decades and continents. The rich cast of characters includes all ages and walks of life. It also contains some truly awful jokes.
About the Author: Marion Voytinsky is a retired Federal Public Servant who lives in Bell's Corners, a suburb of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. This is not to be confused with the town of Bell's Corners, in the Tay Valley, near Perth, Ontario. She graduated from Queen's University at Kingston with degrees in theatre and education. She has lived most of her adult life with controlled bipolar disorder. The idea for Face Your Fears came when everybody at the table got the same fortune cookie one night, and this idea cross-fertilized with the idea of what it might be like to have a large family. The story was written during NaNoWriMo in November, 2012. When not writing, she enjoys playing board games and is a member of Toastmasters International. She has never made a quilt, but hopes to. She has also written Cheaper Than a Cruise, a travelogue about teaching English overseas; Infinity Plus One, a novel; Bytowne Bridge Buddies, a novel; and created Anna's Amazing Quest, a family board game. Face Your Fears is her first novel.
