The event is free and is part of the Brown Bag Inspirations series at the library this summer. ?Participants are invited to bring a brown bag lunch, if desired. ?
Spielman?s book, ?The Life List? will be available for purchase at the event.
?The Life List? was published by Random House Publishers and released July 2. ?
The book centers on a 30-something woman named Brett, who has a cushy job, a posh apartment and a handsome boyfriend - all-in-all, a sweet life. When Brett?s beloved mother passes away, she leaves behind a will with one big stipulation: in order to receive her inheritance, Brett must complete the list of life goals she had written when she was a 14-year-old na?ve teenager. ?Suddenly Brett finds herself on an unexpected journey.
??A few years ago, I came across an abandoned life list I?d written as a teen,? Spielman said. ??Lori?s List? was penciled across a piece of yellowed notebook paper, along with 27 goals I believed would lead to a happy life. The list and those dreams became the seed for my novel, ?The Life List.??
Spielman, a resident of East Lansing, is a former speech pathologist and high school guidance counselor, and currently works as a homebound teacher for inner-city students. ?She will speak about her experiences writing and publishing her debut novel, and will also read excerpts.
