A Tale of Two Mothers in AND JACKI, OF COURSE by Amy Gerstin Coombs

July 27, 2011 - PRLog -- San Francisco, Calif.; Tensions are high during the birth of Nora’s grandchild. Forced to share a waiting room with her son’s mother-in-law who never accepted Nora’s lesbian partner, Jacki, has Nora seething with rage. Each passing minute reveals a new depth of prejudice, and a new bitter memory from the past.

Jacki tells Nora to stop dwelling in the past and dismisses her fears for the future. Can Nora forgive and forget? Should she? What will a mother do to hold onto her family? A short story from our Nibs short story line.
