Hey ya'll! I'm liv'n in the hills of Tn in the cabin my husband, Virgil,and I built with five American bulldogs. Here are the reviews that have come in for my autobiography, Pieces of my Heart which is due out April or May. '09 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ¿Jump on the back with motorcycle mama, Katy Ishee, as she wildly steers us on a blistering ride of unwed motherhood, familial alienation, bikers, drugs, and insane asylums--you won't know whether to fall on your knees and pray to the Almighty or get stone-ass drunk and listen to Janis Joplin and the Grateful Dead.¿ Mike B. Vinson freelance writer ******************************************************** ¿This story is so shocking and strong, you have to be strong to read it.¿ Lonnie Mack, Blues rock guitarist/singer, songwriter ¿I have been an avid reader most of my life and nothing moves me more than a true story about real people. I love non-fiction drama with events that have been lived and suffered and overcome. Katy has written a book that touches on all these areas. She has been down the road and back again and has the guts to tell it like it is. She is an inspiration to anyone who has had to overcome hard knocks and impossible odds in this crazy world we all inhabit. Her journey is a testimony about the perils women face in our male dominated society and how they have to deal with it. There is faith, spirituality, numerology and freedom in her message and the song' Mother and Child Reunion" echoes through out the pages. She is one strong and talented person and also cooks great Bar B Que. Who could ask for more!¿ George Cummings_ Original Founder of the band Dr. Hook & the Medicine Show. Singer, guitarist and songwriter. ¿Pieces of my Heart is a book that stays with you long after the last page is read. It opens the door for discussion on so many levels, it's truly a great read. This story tugged at my heart strings like nothing I've ever read before. Pieces of My Heart by Katy Ishee is like taking a journey though someone's mind, heart and soul. No detail is left unturned, no emotion left unsaid. Pieces of My Heart is a powerful, gripping, and heart-wrenching read. ¿ ~Catherine Burr. Bestselling Author +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ What a remarkable read... This autobiography has genuine heart. It's a biographical insight into a troubled soul striving to make sense out of simple act of being...with the loss of her son and her finding him again; Bikers, truckers, and wayward entities harbor her through a life filled with fear and mainstream social osterization. ¿This is a very moving story about a remarkably strong woman.
