About the Book

"Hit the water!"

They were the last words of traffic reporter Jane Dornacker as her helicopter crashed in the Hudson River during a rush-hour broadcast on October 22, 1986.

Courageous until the end, Jane was the inspiration for Hitting Water, a collection of short stories about embracing life even as we accept death.

A heartfelt account of the real-life tragedy, "Jane in a Plane" is the springboard for a series of fictional tales exploring the people who drift in and out of our lives. It's about humans who leave an indelible impression and in some way inspire us to reach beyond our current state to achieve something greater.

Fans of Flannery O'Connor, J. D. Salinger and the philosophy of Dr. Wayne Dyer will appreciate this unique anthology that arose out of a particularly challenging period in the author's life. For her, the writing of this book is a call to action for herself and others to rediscover their purpose, and to pursue their dreams.


About the Author:

Debra H. Rotmil is originally from New York and currently lives in Los Angeles. After grieving from the sudden deaths of her parents within the same year, she made the move out west in 2010 to create new chapters in her life, cultivate new experiences from a different perspective, and reignite the creative pool inside her. Hitting Water was inspired by people who've touched her life, however briefly, providing invaluable life lessons simply through the gift of having known them. A writer for most of her life, she has written extensively on comedy, television, and film at TVBlogster.blogspot.com. She writes almost daily at OrderoftheGoodWrite.wordpress.com. Ms. Rotmil is currently writing various novels and short stories for future publication. She works at Paramount Pictures.
