Synopsis

Sometimes it takes a little drama to find your voice.

Charlie's marriage has hit rockbottom-and his bed is a lonely place. In a bid to rekindle his mojo he joins a local writing class.

A hobby that has his wife laughing into her morning latte. However, the writing class enjoys his stories, including the director of the local pantomime. The director persuades Charlie to write the next local pantomime. Charlie's wife calls him crazy, and with a dame as funny as a kidney stone and equipment on par with a second-hand stall, Charlie can see her point until his wife leaves him for her therapist.

With a fire of epic proportions and an exotic wardrobe mistress sending mixed messages, Charlie is caught in the crossfire of amateur dramatic politics, divorce, and reviving his "romancing" skills.

Will he find the courage to take a second chance?

A Dame Called Derek is the first novella in the Diva Diaries series, although each book can be read as a standalone. For fans of Abbey Jimenez, Maddie Please, and Judy Leigh, A Dame Called Derek is a laugh-a-minute farce set in the small town world of Scottish amateur dramatics.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Back in the days before TV remotes and when the Bay City Rollers were Scotland's finest export, Kerrie Noor left Australia for a working holiday-and never looked back.Now based in Scotland, Kerrie has been a community radio regular, belly dance teacher, stand-up comic, and Edinburgh Festival performer. Her first novel, Sheryl's Last Stand, was inspired by her experience teaching belly dancing and launched the Bellydancing and Beyond series-bittersweet comedies featuring women over forty, unexpected passions, and more than one shimmy gone wrong.Kerrie still dances, often mixing storytelling with sequins and the odd joke, and has inflicted her quirky style of humor on many, including several rest homes, charity events, and pretty much anyone who will sit still long enough to listen.She's been shortlisted for the Asham Short Story Award and had two short plays performed on the radio. When she's not writing, she's probably plotting a fictional fiasco involving glitter, grumpy relatives, and the enduring power of friendship.
