Congratulations to the 100 winners in the Goodreads Giveaway for Across the Street!
To all the winners and content entrants:
Thanks to everyone that entered the Goodreads Giveaway, and congratulations to the winners of a copy of Across the Street!
Thank you all so much for being interested in my writing, and I hope you enjoy Across the Street.
Writing Across the Street was a bit special for me. I am an identical twin (my sister’s name, coincidentally, is Lisa), and thankfully, we never had to consider surrogacy. We did, however, talk occasionally about how interesting it was to be best friends and have identical genes. So, it was uniquely fun for me to explore the limits of love between twin sisters as I wrote the book.
I very much like to stay in touch with my readers, and I encourage you to reach out to me via Goodreads or my website (LaurieLisa.com) with any questions or comments about the book. A number of book club groups have asked me to attend their meeting (via Zoom), which I think is great fun. There are so many perspectives and interesting questions. If you are part of a book club and you happen to be reading Across the Street, if you like, I would be happy to pop in for a Q & A.
I invite you to follow/friend me on Goodreads and join my Reader List (at LaurieLisa.com) to stay up to date on my other novels and upcoming events.
Again, thanks for taking an interest in my book and for entering the contest. I look forward to hearing from you.
