Tricia Dodson author of the recently released The Blow Fish and Other Men of the Sea is one of the featured authors on Shelfari: www.shelfari.com/authors.
As someone who is single and in her 40s, Tricia Dodson has experienced a lot of the frustrations of dating. "I wanted a way to have my own Sex and the City group of women to say that I am not alone with my frustrations." Recently, she had the opportunity to appear on The Dr. Phil Show and confront a few of the men I have labeled as “Blowfish”. These are puffed up, arrogant, egotistical, condescending men who have no concern for the women they use for sex and are oblivious to the carnage they leave behind. This led to the revelation that all men could be classified as a type of fish. Dodson explores the types of fish that women seek. Fishing and dating are very similar. They both require patience, skill, the right bait, and the perfect location. Tricia discovered that Internet dating is not the right location for her. In this book, she shares internet stories and over 100 emails that contain the good, the bad and the totally unexplained. This is not a man-bashing book! "I love men!" Dodson exclaims. It is a tongue-in-cheek look at dating for women. It is based in fact, with just a little fiction thrown in. It is about coping with the ever-changing dating life. She told Dr. Phil that she was so frustrated with men that her idea of a perfect date is now soft music, a nice candle and plenty of batteries! Any woman who has ever been frustrated while searching for her Mr. Right will appreciate this book! On a very serious note, the book is about women learning to love and respect themselves. Sex is not always love. Women need to learn that they have the power to throw back that unwanted fish and hold out of their Marlin, he’s one of the good guys!
