Produktinformationen zu „Detours (ePub)“
Jessie hated leaving California, the ocean, the sand between his toes, the cool surf washing around his feet, and the smell of the seaweed as he tangled it around his shoulders. Hed been learning to body-surf with neighborhood friends and was getting pretty good.
All that had come to an end when his dad announced taking that out-of-state job. Why isnt the one you have good enough? challenged Jessie. No one listened. From heaven to hell, Jessie thought. He almost hated his dad for making him change friends, schools, and his home, leaving the wonderful sea behind. He bet the teenagers of the desert never even heard of surfing!
Making it worse was changing late in the semester. He wouldnt know anyone in his classes; he thought hed be the new freak! His heart was heavy. Would there be anything good to write?

Autoren-Porträt von El Farrar
The author’s formal education included four years at Stanford University for undergraduate work. At Arizona State University, she received a bachelor’s degree, master’s degree, and PhD over the years from 1963 to 1991. She was instrumental as Art Department’s chair and instructor for twenty-seven years in development of the Yavapai College Art Department in Prescott, Arizona. Her expertise of subject matter developed the programs for watercolor and printmaking. She sponsored the art club for many years, taking trips to museums and theatre in California, giving students more up-close-and-personal attention to these visual and performing art forms.Her awards in juried exhibits continue with the most recent one at the Glendale Annual Juried Fine Arts Exhibit and juried work at Art-Intersection in Gilbert, Arizona. Her work is in collections in the United States, Hawaii, Canada, Norway, France, Great Britain, Germany, Mexico, and Reunion Island. Due to an accident in 2009, travel is limited, and dimensions of artworks are smaller. However, art will always be a way of life, a way of personal expression in whatever form it takes. It is a way of communication and conversation with the world and about the world as each individual interprets it.
Recently, after a two-year graduation from the Institute of Children’s Literature, that art form has moved into literature. She finds this new passion fulfilling and stimulating in much the same way as the visual arts, moving one out of this world and into one of the imagination and references both personal and literary.
“Yavapai College at Prescott will always have a special place in my heart, as I was there at an exciting time of development for the college . . . a unique and special time for all who experienced the building of classrooms and the development of programs.”
When she retired from Yavapai College in 1993, she served as graduate advisor for Prescott College and their new master of arts program (MAP). Her last

student in that program graduated in 2006, and she finally retired from formal instruction. She has loved teaching students to explore sights and sounds and feelings and learning how to express and share them through the language of the arts. She says, “It has been an exciting journey all the way in every way every day!”
