Author Karen Foster completed her first novel, Reasons for Waking, shortly before her death in 2022. Her sister Lori Turley and her other siblings were determined to get the book published. Not only was it published (by Bold Story Press, which publishes books exclusively by women) but it recently was awarded the Readers' Favorite Award, Silver Medal in the "Fiction - General" category. Reasons for Waking explains a family mystery that shows how frayed our connections can become when we try to skirt the truth, and how facing the truth can heal us.
