My Life as a Mule is a contemporary story of Molly, a successful mathematician and mule, who awakens to the realization that everything has always happened for her and that she only ever needs to follow her heart.
The story is set in Everywhere, United States, and all of the characters are animals.
My Life as a Mule is told in four sections. First is an interview which explains what a mule is and why Molly is being interview. The following three parts-Wet Behind the Ears, Still Slightly Damp, and Almost Dry-are short stories from Molly's life and path to awakening.
At the end of the story, Molly realizes that she "simply came here to love." She decides to buy a van and travel. She has a lot of souls to meet and remind that they're loved and perfect as they are.
My Life as a Mule can relate to many genres such as: adventure, comedy, fable, family, fantasy, folktale, memoir, and young adult (or YA).
It can also fall under the following categories: coming of age, happy ending, meaningful message, philosophical questions, and a twist (all the characters are animals).
My Life as a Mule has been enjoyed by readers ranging from 9 years old to 92.
Molly, a Mule Mare, is the protagonist. At various times she can be described as: adventurous, aspiring, a badass, beautiful, blunt, charming, clumsy, complex, confident, decisive, educated, empathetic, engaging, faithful, flexible, funny, gracious, heroic, honorable, a leader, a lone wolf, modest, outspoken, skill-full, tenacious, unapologetic, and visionary.
Her best friend is Harriet, an Appaloosa Hinnie Mare, who at times can be described as: also adventurous, aspiring, a badass, beautiful, blunt, charming, complex, confident, decisive, empathetic, engaging, faithful, funny, gracious, heroic, honorable, outspoken, and unapologetic. Unlike Molly, she is not clumsy, a lone wolf, or modest.
Their nemesis is Billy, a Billy Goat. At times he is: aggressive, greedy, manipulative, sarcastic, and villainous.
Betsy, an adorable Bunny Rabbit, is a life-long friend to Molly. Her main characteristics are: beauty, charm, empathy, faithfulness, graciousness, and honor.
There are many more interesting characters such as Miss Granger (an elementary school teacher who is an over 500-pound Pig), Molly's grandmother (a mean-spirited Jennet or female Donkey), and Mr. Tafferty (a very well-educated Toad and high school Shakespearean studies teacher). The other characters look forward to meeting you when you read the book. ;-)
She was given her first diary when she was 11 years old. "I thought everyone had diaries," Sj recently told a friend. "I just knew that it was something that I had to do."
When she wasn't journaling, she was writing in one form or another. First, it was scripts for clients (Sj co-owned a video production company in Hawaii for over 25 years). Then, it was long letters to friends who loved her dad.
"I found my voice when I was writing those emails," she explained. "For the first time, I was writing about something that I truly cared about - my dad."
Sj's father was known for winning 3-hour-long matches in national tennis tournaments when, in the fall of 2008, he suddenly transformed into someone who batted red ballons to other non-ambulatory rehab patients instead.
Those letters became the impetus for her blog: sjlehoven dot com.
A few years later, a friend dared Sj to enter the BBC's radio play contest. She did not win, but she did something even more important, she entered the contest. In 2014, Kaua'i's Women in Theatre produced that play. You can listen to it online through her website: NowWhoAreYou dot com.
Then in 2017, Sj felt a tap on her heart. It was time to leave the life that she knew, go to the mainland, and write a book. 'My Life as a Mule' was written as she traveled and camped. She was officially Riding the Trust Train and living life in the now.
Sj shares her now time between Hawaii and other parts of the world.
