One synonym for pawn is hock. Hock comes from a Dutch word, hok, which is defined as prison or debt.
Another definition of a pawn is a person used to advance another's purposes. We think of a pawn broker as a person who is authorized to pay out money against personal property left with him. More often than not, the property is never redeemed and is later sold to recoup the broker's investment and make a little profit on the deal.
But what if one particular pawn broker dealt not in objects but in people?And what if some people felt so imprisoned in their current lives that they were willing to become pawns?
Maybe they would...if they knew where to find the Pawn Broker.
has loved books all her life. That love began by listening to her older sister read when she was still too young to discover the magic for herself. She's read everything from history to the phone book but her favorite authors are James Michener, Agatha Christie and the mystic William Blake.
Over the years, romantic novels became a favorite. The top of that list is Pride and Prejudice. When she retired she had too much time on her hands and spent too much money and trips to the library to get books in order to satisfy her restless soul. It was then she began to write herself.
As an adult she held a variety of jobs, all of them grist for her imaginative mind. The occupations in Choppy Waters will hopefully inspire someone to fight for their own dreams, to never give up on themselves or on love.
A widow, Sandy recently moved to southern Indiana where she lives near the younger of her two beloved sisters.
