As the author of the non-fiction book, "The Healing Path of the Romantic: Type Four of the Enneagram Personality Type System," Donna M. Fisher-Jackson has brought to life the personality of the Romantic in her current novel of Clara and Irving. Based on the true story of a Romantic, Donna takes you on a journey through the world of past lives, and how the seeds of a Romantic can be planted in lifetimes ago. It's a love story that may prompt you to go on your own quest to uncover your own past lives and your soulmates across time. If there is one truth in life, it's that love lives on forever.

This novel was inspired by the lives of Donna's grandparents, Clara and Irving Fisher who lived in Onset, Massachusetts, and had three sons - the youngest of which was her Father, Donald Herbert Fisher. Her grandparents passed away before she was born, but she imagined what their lives must have been like during the 1920's at the height of the era of vaudeville theatre and silent films. In the 1990's, Donna worked as Director of Public Relations at the Zeiterion Theatre, a restored vaudeville theatre, in New Bedford, Massachusetts. Thinking about her grandparents, she wondered if they had ever seen a show at the Zeiterion which opened in 1923. She decided to connect her grandparents' love story with her own experience of working at the Zeiterion. Her novel is truly a love story of a Romantic, past and present. In 2023, the Zeiterion Theatre celebrated its 100th birthday, still going strong as a vibrant performing arts center which is being updated for the next century of its life.
