Sue Potter, author of A Girl Like Me, will visit Dog Ears Bookstore & Café for a book-signing event from noon to 2 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 11
“Who is the least likely person to reach for her dreams, to step over the baggage that the family disease of alcoholism can create? Who is the least likely person to rise above the loneliness, isolation and fear of her own shadow? A girl like me … that’s who,” said the author. “I am so grateful for the ability to step beyond my own limits to experience and participate in my own life.”
“Simply Sue” offers a compelling story of struggle, strength and courage as her faith grows and blossoms in her spirit, awakening her ability to walk through fear and drawing others in to share in her light and love of God. So grab a cup of tea and your favorite afghan, and curl up with A Girl Like Me.
Potter will take you through a bit of her life from there to here, and share stories that will make you laugh, cry or nod your head in agreement. Come along and experience the transformation and be inspired to become all that you are meant to be.
“Remember, faith does not take away our humanness, it restores our ability to remember who we are,” added the author. “I’m a mother, grandmother of seven, former wife, sister and friend. I’m a cousin and an aunt. Most importantly, I am a beautiful child of God. Here I am, ‘A Girl Like Me,’ reaching out with hope and promise. Who would have ever thought? I’m Simply Sue, and I’m glad to be here!”
