WestBow Press Presents: '11 on My Own'

COLUMBIA, Conn., April 29 /PRNewswire/ -- In the world of reality television, producers and directors would have you believe that raising large families is one big, fun circus, perhaps laden with some pitfalls but somehow a fairytale nonetheless. Debut author Kristin Luscia candidly shares the realities of raising 11 children as a single, divorced mother in her new memoir, 11 on My Own (published by WestBow Press), a story that highlights her struggles, joys and journey towards renewal.

Luscia's life started out so completely average that she never could have guessed at the roller-coaster ride her decisions would lead her. It took her 43 years and enrollment in a master's program in theology to realize that her life was more than just a continuation of foolish mistakes and unfortunate decisions.

In 11 on My Own, Luscia provides a brief background about the choices she made in selecting men and chronicles the difficulties of enduring family court with her latest ex-husband, a controlling and manipulative man. In her memoir, she discusses her older children and how they contribute to the family. She tells of the trials she's had in maintaining food, clothing and shelter without any support from her ex-husband or the court enforcing any orders. She also gives testament to her Catholic faith and how it has sustained her in the last 15 years.

Appealing to those who have witnessed a divorce and its trauma in their lives, 11 on My Own speaks to women who are in relationships with controlling, devious and selfish men, and it speaks to those women who see themselves as alone in the world. Luscia provides encouragement for women whose husbands have abandoned them with a larger than normal number of children.

Luscia looks at her life as a chain of events that led her to the person she is today. Every mistake that she's made in the past served to form her character and create her personality. She writes, "Trials can break you, or they can make you."
