The story of What Now begins with Jeannette on a plane flying to Chicago to attend her friend and employer's funeral. Jeannette worked for Windy City Publishing and Recording and still did consulting from Oregon. She met a man named Robert during the flight who was pleasant to talk to and kept her mind from thinking about why she was flying to Chicago. A lawyer was waiting to read the will when she arrived. Jeannette had inherited Windy City Publishing and Recording, lock, stock and barrel including the building. She was thrown into the position of CEO and owned a multi-million dollar recording company overnight. She had no business training, but she knew music. How was she going to run a business when she just moved with her two sons to Oregon? She decided to spend every other week in Chicago and the rest of the time in Oregon which meant a lot of traveling. Robert, the man she met on the plane, lived in the same town in Oregon she had moved to. They became very close. Jeannette's ex- husband, Jeff, moved to Oregon and made her life miserable. Jeannette and Robert were married and honeymooned in Ireland. Robert Donna lives in eastern Oregon in the basic area where she has lived for her entire life. She has lived an interesting life and worn many hats. She has been a seamstress, cake decorator, bank teller, General Ledger clerk, upholsterer, waitress, cook, served on the Little League board, singer, served on many city activity committees, pari-mutuel teller (taking bets for the horses and dog races), elected to the City Council, worked in the Special Education high school level as an aid/teacher while taking college courses to get a degree in special education, and at present an artist and author. Donna has four children, fourteen grandchildren and five great-grandchildren. She had three grown daughters one of which decided to stay in Oregon after the wedding. She was nothing like her father. She caused serious problems with drugs and alcohol. Robert was constantly stressed. Because of her, his health deteriorated. Jeannette was alone again and had to deal with Robert's daughter and a major business in Chicago. After trying time and time again to help Robert's daughter, Jeannette kicked her out of her house and out of her life. She spent most of her time in Chicago producing her love of music. One day she was attacked with a knife by a man who said she owed him money. She overcame her injuries and came out a stronger woman. Would she have to see her attacker in court? Testify against him? Then what? Find out in book 3, Full Steam Ahead.
