Nine-year-old Margie Mack leaves her grandparents to live in Chicago with her mother and stepfather Marty. It's a tumultuous, exciting time for Margie, filled with unexpected surprises.

As Margie discovers boys and challenges of adolescence, the grand events of the 1960s play out around her. The sounds of the British Invasion resonate deep within her, and she mourns with the nation at President Kennedy;s tragic assassination.

Margie's own life takes an unexpected turn when Jack, her biological father, returns. His reemergence into her life triggers paradoxical emotions. Through the love and guidance of her stepfather, Margie learns to forgive Jack, although she has no doubt which of the tow men deserves to be called Dad. A sweet, inspiring reminiscence of times past, My Ship has Sails continues the story of Margie Mack's life begun in her first book, Through The Woods.

About Margie Mack (Chicago, Illinois Author)

Margie Mack

My name is Margie Mack and I live in Hanover Park, Illinois. I grew up in Colby Point, Chicago, Elk Grove Village and finally settled in Hanover Park for 30+ years. I am married 47 years, have a huge family of kids and grand-kids! Writing is what I love to do. I have published two books so far in a four part series. Both of my books have been sent to the "Oprah Winfrey's Leadership School for Girls" in South Africa! Some of my some of my stories have been featured in the "Chicken Soup of the Soul" series as well. I have been on the "You & Me" show on The U station in Chicago and you can find those shows on youtube.

I have a Facebook page with 8000+ followers that you can find under the following link:https://www.facebook.com/Margiemackamazinglifewriter/. The third book in this series is "Leaving Camelot" and will be released in time for Christmas and then the final book in the series "Miles to Go" will be released next year. I am also working with a team in Hollywood on a screenplay that I wrote that is currently being optioned.

Future books include a mystery, a thriller, and three biographies on various people in my life. Finding 7 siblings late in my life I have a fabulous tale to tell you. I love to look at works of art because that is what inspires my poetry and stories. I find that a routine and sedentary life can be dangerous to our health, I would much rather die from an adventure!
