TANJA
BROWN

This book is a raw, funny, and deeply intimate memoir about love, desire, motherhood, and the courage to choose aliveness in the middle of real life. Set against autism motherhood, midlife reinvention, and a decade-long relationship with a man twenty-six years younger, it explores what happens when a woman stops living by the rules she was given and starts listening to herself instead.

Flipping The Script

Unapologetically honest and emotionally precise, this story isn’t about defending choices or offering tidy lessons. It’s about telling the truth about longing, responsibility, resilience, and what it costs (and gives back) to live with eyes wide open.

” No Lessons – Just Life “

This book isn’t about becoming fearless or reinventing yourself from scratch. It’s about living a complicated, fully inhabited life-loving deeply, carrying responsibility, making imperfect choices, and telling the truth about all of it with humor and clarity.

“Some men aren’t afraid of stepping into life affected by autism, aging, or responsibility. They’re turned on by women who can hold complexity and still laugh, love, and want more. Maturity isn’t a liability it’s the draw.”
