About Book

RED BOOTS & ATTITUDE speaks to every Texas woman. It echoes her spirit, her strength and her indomitable will. This unique collection, edited by Texas authors Diane Fanning and Susie Kelly Flatau, showcases the fiction, creative non-fiction and poetry of established and emerging Texas Women Writers.

Featuring the creative non-fiction of Liz Carpenter (award-winning author of Starts With a Laugh) and Farnoosh Moshiri (Bartheleme Memorial Fellowship for non-fiction, 1996), the poetry of Teresa Palomo Acosta (Voertman Award for Poetry, 1993) and Vicky Charleston (Best Texas Poet-Austin International Poetry Festival, 1995), and the short fiction of Suzy Spencer (New York Times Bestseller) and Ruth Pennebaker (finalist for the Book Publishers of Texas Award for Best Book for Children and Young People, Texas Institute of Letters) and many others. A portion of the royalties from this book are earmarked as a contribution to the Breast Cancer Resource Center to aid them in their valuable work.
