I’m going to write a story about a Woman Ghost Writer who poses as a man-author named Moxie Halloway. No one has seen Moxie who is called Maxie, because he leaves nothing in his guns. He lets the reader have it – right between the eyes. Then it is discovered Maxie is interred in the Camarillo Hospital, and is a woman who claims she was the mistress of William Randolph Hearst, and, she is………..”Rosebud”.
Escaping from the looney bin, Maxie becomes a Wild Woman living in the hills. Her children come forth after seeing their mother on T.V. They are math wizards who invented a new math and language. Maxie Rosebud had turned her children over to Khrishnamurti, and were raised in his ashram in Ojai. Their adopted father was a math genius and taught them ancient Sanskrit. They are interred in their mother’s one room – with a view of the peak.

Rosemary was in the Waves, and left this world in 1997. Her…
