Lisa, this is a very inspiring story. I just started on some of your books and I’m using a few of them for an English project. I have every intention of being an author. This story just tells me that I can do it, and that I have just as much a chance as anyone else. This is so inspiring and encouraging to me. Thanks so much for sharing.

Hopeful for the Future,
A.N.T.

Lisa,

Great story! That’s exactly how I have been writing these past few years – after housework is done and when my toddlers are asleep. I was actually mopping my kitchen floor when I got a call from a publisher and was so surprised, I thought it was a joke.

So glad you kept writing and writing. That’s very inspiring to me.

Much success,

Karen

Neat story. How funny that right after writing a story about embezzlement, you encountered an embezzler in real life!

I’ve heard about Lisa’s sister convincing her to write before, but it’s interesting to hear the whole story. How wonderful for both of you!

That was (is) a great first sale story. The fact that you and your sister’s first sales are intertwined makes it that much more inspiring/touching. Thanks for sharing, Lisa!
