With It is written from hard experience, neither memoir nor factual chronicle. I traveled with the carnival for over three years, with my then-husband and little girl. I've lifted the stories out of memory, put them on a time-line, highlighted the most colorful characters, and thrown in a murder loosely based on real events. Nearly everyone is fascinated by the possibilities inherent in the carnival subculture, and I was no exception. I learned the world - its language, its joys and its ugly secrets - and lived to tell the tale.

Love Bade Me Welcome exposes the triumphs and hardships of Phyllis' life and those she loved. This biography offers never before seen insights and facts about Norman Mailer, who was married to Phyllis' sister, Bea and later became Phyllis' lover. 
As Phyllis sought out her spiritual quest, she and her third husband, noted artist Lynfield Ott, forged their path together that led them to India, to the feet of the renowned spiritual master, Meher Baba. Because of their long and devoted relationship with Meher Baba, she and her family became the only people to reside at Meher Baba's American ashram, the Meher Spiritual Center in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.
