Burying Norma Jeane
Now available in paperback and eBook!
An epic mother-daughter road trip novel to liberate the body of Marilyn Monroe!
Already in the throes of grief after the sudden loss of her husband, Miriam Renata is shaken by the news that Hugh Hefner, the lecherous founder of Playboy, has been recently entombed next to Marilyn Monroe nearly sixty years after her death. Unable to accept her idol sharing a crypt with this succubus for eternity, Miriam and her teenaged daughter set out on a road trip across the West to liberate Norma Jeane and themselves.
“Can the mother-daughter duo rescue Marilyn from her posthumous fate? No spoilers, but I’m betting that, like me, you’ll read this in one sitting to find out.”
—Stina French, host of Listen To Your Skin Reading Series and Headmistress of The Sexploratorium
—William E. Burleson, author of Ahnwee Day
“Burying Norma Jeane is both an epic adventure novel and a call to action. Read this and then meet me at the cemetery! (I’m serious.)”
—Kona Morris, Storyteller, comedian, and founder of Godless Comics
