Hello, did you notice there wasn’t a newsletter for July?

I apologize!!

I was busy working on the final edits of a super secret project that I can now share with you.

Please forgive me and enjoy the OFFICIAL announcement below.

🌻 Calling All Sunflower Sisters! 🌻

I’m looking for Beta Readers for my new book Sunflower Sisters!

Lisa McCombs writes books about surviving adolescence in a world of differences. Diagnosed with multiple sclerosis at the height of her teaching career, Lisa understands the need for acceptance and inclusion.

Inspired by the works of award-winning author Jamie Sumner, Sunflower Sisters promotes awareness of the hidden physical and mental challenges facing today’s youth.

🌟 Change BEGINS with Conversation 🌟

Sunflower Sisters isn't just a book about autism; it's a powerful conversation starter. And I want YOU to be part of this conversation!

What's in it for you?

  • 🌻 A FREE Kindle download of Sunflower Sisters
  • 📧 Exclusive access to my monthly newsletter
  • 👯‍♀️ Lifetime status as a Sunflower Sister

Can you commit to reading this 20,000-word novel and leaving an Amazon review within three weeks?

If so, you’re on your way.

📙 About the Book 📙

Seventh grade! JuJu and her bestie plan to make this the bestest year ever.

With only one week left, they finalize their list of things to do:

1. Go to the Mall for matching school supplies and first-day outfits.

2. Take selfies of their pouty faces to post on social media (for what reason, they have no idea, but it’s what the cool girls do).

3. Move to a strange town several hours away.

Wait...what?!

When JuJu’s dad inherits property in Nowhere, Virginia, the family must live there for twelve months.

But this quirky, storybook town has surprises waiting for them: a secret sister, a crazy rooster, and a blind psychic minister. What’s not to love?

See you next month!

January 2024 www.ladywiththecane.com Reader I don’t know about you, but the holidays always arrive amid a wealth of memories. I remember anticipating the contents of those gifts under the tree. Imagining the contents was nearly as exciting as revealing the prize. I couldn’t wait to call my bestie to review our hauls. The older we get, the less this happens. That’s when it’s necessary to gift ourselves with secret indulgences. I’m not sure what my friend gave herself this year, but I went a...
