Lisa Weldon, Author of "Twenty Pieces: A Walk Through Love, Loss and Midlife Reinvention"

  • Well Red 223 Opelika Road Auburn, AL, 36830 United States (map)

We’re excited to welcome Lisa Weldon to our store to read from her stunning memoir, TWENTY PIECES, at 6pm on Thursday, Sep. 22nd! This memoir tells the incredible story of how the author claimed her own happiness at age 58 after a series of hardships altered her life forever. ✨

Recently divorced, facing foreclosure on her home, and grappling with a stagnant advertising career, Lisa woke up one day with the realization that her life would never be the same. Then, an impossible idea became a reality: for one month, she would live in New York City on her own, taking a crash course in advertising in the morning and walking a different Manhattan neighborhood after class. Along the way, Lisa opened herself up to the circumstances of her changed life - and slowly began to welcome the newer, stronger person she was becoming. The memoir that was borne from this journey is a testament to readers faced with the incredible task of revising themselves - one determined step at a time.

Join us on Sep. 22nd for a memorable night! We’ll have copies of Lisa’s book available in the following weeks for those who’d like to make their purchase before the event
