"I’ll be fine.” Jodie said, standing with her head high, and her shoulders back. “I’m Jodie,” she grinned. “I bounce back from anything.” Join Jodie Maine, an aspiring author and musician, in the first of a series of stories of old friends, new friends, relationships, music, literature and an awful lot of coffee. In "Coffee And Ink" Jodie finds herself back in touch with an old school teacher, who casually mentions that he is a band, and she is asked, seeing as she is a writer, to write some lyrics for their album. Suddenly, Jodie is thrown into a world where she has to choose between friends and family, her career or her hobbies, real life or fantasy, and learns a few things along the way. If you like tales of music, coffee, and random conversation, you could (possibly) do a lot worse than reading Jodie Maine: Coffee And Ink.
