About this listen

 A novel exploring a woman's escape from an abusive relationship to find herself. A lot of people get pushed around and take it – it’s safer than confrontation. But Teale was finding too much was being taken away from her – her once seemingly secure life was a sham – and it was all beginning to cost her dearly… something had to be done – but the answers were hidden in a veil of lies… She began searching, in hidden places, for someone she’d lost, a long time ago… “Susan Crossman is a breakthrough writer who probes deep into the psyche of her readers, taking them on a journey of self discovery… that is both intensely personal and revealing… ” - Michael B Davie, author, The Late Man “The murder of women by their intimate partners occurs on a daily basis in North America. And every day, you can also find thousands of women and their children living in emergency shelters and safe houses to escape domestic violence… As someone who has never been in an abusive relationship, I was intrigued by the dynamic of abuse. What would make a woman choose to involve herself with a man who appears to despise her? I began to ask such questions while working for a women’s shelter where I met some amazing women who shared their stories with me… This has been a sad but enlightening journey. But out of all of those fascinating and heart-breaking pieces of tragedy I was able to weave together the purely fictional story of Teale’s escape from abuse to freedom… It is my hope that this fictional story leads to a deeper understanding of a very real problem that causes untold pain to women every day.” - Susan Crossman About the Author: Susan Crossman is a freelance writer with several decades of experience in the fields of journalism, government communications, PR and marketing and her focus these days lies in the creation of business documents that build reputations and inspire commitment. Although the work is intriguing and satisfying, she’s found that inside the heart of her professional approach to words beats the jungle drum of a creative writer. What’s a gal to do? Widowed three years ago, Susan currently juggles her freelance writing work with the care and harassment of two young children and in the rare moments when she is sure no-one is looking, she sneaks off to wrestle with the untidy task of writing for fun. The result has been the publication in 2011 of several essays in the Globe and Mail. The fall of 2011 marked the release of Shades of Teale, her novel about a woman’s journey through marriage to divorce. Skating along the theory that what she doesn’t know might hurt, Susan has worked hard to become a Master Practitioner of Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP), an expert in social media marketing and search engine optimization, and an awfully strong supporter of the value of chocolate as a medicinal agent. She is fluent in French and Spanish, completely comfortable with possibility and imperfection and absolutely useless with a vacuum. Shades of Teale is her first novel.
