Lisa Wingate. I got a message from Goodreads on your behalf about me having read a book of yours and giving it a good rating on Goodreads. However, I just checked all my feedback and ratings I have left and have not read any of your work. I have not and do not like junk email in my box. Please remove me from any mailing list you might have put me on. ? Thank you. kc

Hi KC, Thanks for reaching out. I don't have any list that includes you. If you search my name you'll see that there is another author with my name and there are also "summary and analysis" kinds of books that discuss Before We Were Yours... books that I have not endorsed by the way. Perhaps there was some mixup at Goodreads. I'm sorry that happened and hope it doesn't happen again. Lisa

I loved Before We Were Yours and it really moved me to try to find out more about my great grandmother, Sophia Belle Wright who by family rumor was born in Aiken SC around 1895. Rumor has it that she and her sister were placed in an orphanage in Aiken SC operated by the Catholic Church. The sisters were adopted by Thomas Wright and his wife? Harriett Floyd from Augusta but it's hard to know what is truth.

I’m reading “ I’ll Watch the Moon” and I love it! I was also born in Minnesota and raised there on a farm. I also lived In Minneapolis and visited St Paul. I also enjoyed your other books. What a talented writer you are, Lisa! When will your next book be published?

“The Book of Lost Friends” has so much that stays with me as a reader. The school scenes with Benny were so real: The kids with raised hands, “Oh, oh!” and then speaking without permission. Aunt Sarge telling Benny that the good teachers always leave. Lisa, your mom Sharon was my colleague in OK years ago. Are those school examples from your own experience, or maybe from your mom?
