Being Anti-Social

 Mace Evans is single at thirty-eight following a divorce and a series of unsuccessful liaisons. And after her much unloved older sister, Shannon, declares that Mace is anti-social, Mace embarks on a journey to understand her condition, whether she was born this way or if it is the accumulation of thirty-eight years of unfortunate encounters with other humans and dogs.  

For reasons unknown to Mace, she has an affair with a work colleague, which brings an unexpected end to her perfect marriage. As if the self-imposed torture and regret is not enough, Mace endures ongoing judgment from her older sister and mother, which further exacerbates already tenuous relationships.

With support from her four best friends, Shiraz and pizza, she recovers to a degree, but in her quest to understand her anti-social ways, she finds herself wondering about the quality of the fabric that keeps her network of friends in tact.

When Mace's mother is diagnosed with cancer, Mace searches for common ground on which to re-connect with her mother before it is too late.
