I published a kid's book and just got a message from a parent. She wanted to let me know that her child requested she read my book for a school read-aloud. Might seem like a small thing to some but it made my whole day.

So, I was jolted awake at 2:59 this morning by a little voice saying "Mommy where are you?" Normally I could see the hall nightlight from my bed but it was oddly pitch dark. I fumbled for my phone. Pointed the light toward the foot of my bed. Nothing. Both kids were sound asleep.

Any self-defense experts willing to help a gal out? I've researched and still can't find the "move" I want my character to use. A much taller opponent grabs the protagonist by both shoulders with a tight grip. I need something simple and quick. No weapons involved.
