Coming this fall. The second edition of my memoir, The Tootsie Roll Lady: a memoir of mental
illness, alcoholism & faith, will be released hopefully in time for
Christmas presents.
For those of you who have read the first edition, I
recommend purchasing the second edition as it updates my recovery starting
after 2005 in an additional Epilogue at the end of the book. There is also a
2019 additional Prologue.
For those of you who have never read it, I think this is an
important time to rerelease this book because mental illness is very much
misunderstood in today’s cultural, political and health environment. The Tootsie Roll Lady takes the reader
through the traumas, struggles, and effects of the mentally ill, from a very
personal point of view. Much of society makes assumptions about those with
mental illness, and those assumptions are based on the media’s views. The Tootsie Roll Lady addresses those
assumptions as readers see mental illness from the inside out.
In coming blog articles, I will explain my reasons for
updating and launching this new edition of the book. In the meantime, if you
are in a big hurry to read the first edition, it can be purchased at Lulu.com
in either paperback or an eBook. Right
now there’s a 10% discount. The Tootsie Roll Lady is also available at
Amazon.com but there’s no discount there and it’s only available in paperback.
Be looking for more information on the release of the second
edition. I will be notifying you in my blog but also in Facebook (More Than Wishing is the business
site).
Until next week, know I’m praying for each and every one of
my readers and followers. May God bless you and encourage you to keep Him
central in your life journey.
