About the Book

Two women, two countries. Serendipity, life, friendship. Diane, a young Australian mother, meets Maggie, a sophisticated American poet, in a chance encounter. Everything - age, class and even nationality - separates them. Yet all is not quite as it seems. Maggie is grieving for her eldest daughter and trapped in a marriage involving infidelity and rape. Diane yearns for the same opportunities given to her brother. Their lives draw them to connect. This is a story of two unfulfilled women finding each other when they needed it most. Their pen-friendship will change them forever. ------ "Moving and generous of spirit, Something Missing richly evokes the worlds and lives of two very different women, chronicling their friendship as it evolves over time." - Sophie Masson, author "A powerful and beautifully told story of how we grow through the power of friendship." - Wendy J. Dunn, author "Any woman who has experienced love and loss will identify with the powerful emotions Whitting evokes." - Cindy Vallar, author

About the Author :
Glenice Whitting is an Australian author and playwright and has published two novels. She was a hairdresser for many years before she became a mature age student. It was during an English Literature Fiction Writing course that her great midlife adventure began. Rummaging through an old cardboard shoebox in the family home she found a pile of postcards dating back to the 19th century, many of them written in Old High German. The translated greetings from abroad introduced the hairdresser to her long hidden German heritage and started her on a life-changing journey. She fell in love with the craft of writing and decided to pursue a writing career. Her Australian/German novel, Pickle to Pie, was short -listed for the Victorian Premier's Literary Award for an Unpublished Manuscript. It co-won the Ilura Press International Fiction Quest and was launched during The Age Melbourne Writers' Festival. Three years as an on-line editor and columnist at suite101.com introduced her to web writing and resulted in an ebook Inspiring Women. Glenice's play Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow was produced during the Fertile Ground New Play Festival. Her published works include biographies, reviews, numerous short stories and two novels. Something Missing is about two countries, two women and lies that lead to truth. She completed the journey from VCE to PhD when she gained her Doctorate of Philosophy (Writing) from Swinburne University in 2013. Glenice's blog can be found at www.glenicewhitting.com.
