About the author/book...

Victoria L. Thurman is an artist and writer. Although reared in a Presbyterian household by two intelligent parents who believed in independent thinking, Victoria constantly wrestled within herself. Trying to please both God and others often left her out of touch with her own voice. After college, she began a perilous journey of nearly losing herself and ending up a broken soul. A period of incubation slowly allowed her to begin a new path on an expedition toward becoming her own person, learning to set aside the expectations others had for her, and seeing life from a different perspective.

She draws upon her own experiences and illustrates her struggles through her character, Delilah “Deli” Dunnfield, most particularly with a piece of dating advice which she grew up with and which led to an “early-life” crisis. During the years of writing her novel, as she lived through her experiences, she learned to laugh, and she tells the story in a quirky, humorous voice.

Part truth, part fiction, all crazy. The Dating Dilemmas of Delilah Dunnfield will take you on the odyssey of a panicked single woman, whose extreme naivety sends her up a creek, many times without a paddle, as she navigates the world of dating. But while Delilah is chasing after Mr. Right, it seems that all the Mr. Wrongs are chasing after her. From being a third wheel on her own date to contemplating the prospect of becoming the step-mother of four children, Delilah soon stumbles upon a truth she never considered.
