Summary

Lucy was only two years old when her mother passes away. Her father remarries to a widow with a son and daughter.  Lucy's father never reveals the truth about her life, and so Lucy thinks her stepmother is her real mother. Her father's death a few months before graduating from high school leaves Lucy with the only family she has known, and they immediately show their true colors. Lucy's stepmother secretly transfers Lucy's inheritance to her name and tells Lucy her father leaves them penniless. Lucy quits school and works as a waitress to support the family. Her stepbrother steals money, including valuable items from Lucy's work. The owner accuses Lucy, and the police take her into custody.  
Will Lucy ever find out about her life and accepts the truth?

    These stories about struggling artists are “a fierce and funny exploration of creation and its discontents” (Steve Almond, author of My Life in Heavy Metal).   Set in various creative communities—an art school, an illegal loft studio, a guerrilla street performance troupe—where teamwork and professional jealousy mix, these interconnected short stories by prizewinning author Anne Elliot follow artists as they grapple with economic realities and evolving expectations.   A middle-aged poet, reeling from 9/11, fights homesickness, writer’s block, and ladybugs at an artist’s colony. A new empty-nester finds a creative outlet in her community garden, but gets tangled up in garden politics. As the characters pass through each other’s stories, making messes and helping mop them up, some find inspiration in accidents and others are ready to quit art completely. Together, they stumble through the creative process, struggling to make art and find the spark of something new and original within themselves. In a world where the odds of becoming a star are nearly impossible, The Artstars tells the darkly humorous yet moving stories of those who dare to dream.
