Interview

Seven Months to Publication

~ joannedesimone ~ 2 Comments

This past weekend, Sebastian asked me, “How many pages are in your book?” Maybe he’s trying to calculate how long it will take him to get through it. I’ve insisted that he read it before it’s published.

Fun Fact: Sebastian helped me choose the book’s subtitle: Raising Children with Disabilities Through Lessons Learned in Dance.

To answer his question, it’s 243 pages long. My younger self could never have imagined writing an entire book. To find out a little more about my work ethic, check out my interview with Bold Journey.

Many of you know that I have been working on a memoir for a long time. Publishing a book can be a long and difficult process. No joke, I started writing my manuscript in 2011. Parenting two children with disabilities taught me a little something about perseverance. I’m happy to officially announce that Fall and Recovery: Raising Children with Disabilities Through Lessons Learned in Dance will be published in August 2024.

You can read more about it and get a sneak peek of the book cover in an interview I did with CanvasRebel.

Enjoy!
