OCTOBER 2009
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Daughter of Pulitzer Prize Winner, Singer-Songwriter Leah-Carla Gordone Self-Publishes Highly Personal Memoir Surrounding Her Manic-Depressive Illness
“From hazardous, fragmented [mis]adventures, Leah-Carla Gordone pulls a shining crystal ball of understanding—reconciling the intensely creative and bipolar parts of herself. Her memoir never loses a kind of mystical wonder at life, humor, or an undeniable self-possession, even when it seems that all else is falling away…A triumphant story of feminine resilience and beauty.” – Lo Galluccio, Author of "Hot Rain" and "Sarasota VII"
“THE MOTORGIRL MEMOIRS is magical! An eloquently written, honest, and compelling masterpiece with rich and colorful insights into Manic-Depression that will bring you to tears. Leah-Carla Gordone takes you on a funky, urban adventure with her emotionally riveting character, Em-Gee, who has the soul of a rock star, a super hero, and a pixie all rolled into one brave and awesome Bipolar babe!” – Taj Bell, Author and Illustrator of children’s book "The Little Night Fairy"

About me:
Books to Bridge the Region is a seven county reading initiative in Indiana covering Lake, Porter, La Porte, Newton, Jasper, Starke, and Pulaski counties. Check out our web site at www.books2bridge.orgHere are some FAQ's about Books to Bridge:
What are the goals of this project? The goals of Books to Bridge the Region are to promote literacy, to create conversations among families and communities, and to foster critical thinking related to a theme.
How are the books selected? A selection committee comprised of educators, librarians and booksellers uses a themed approach with multigenerational selections so that families can read together and readers of all ages may enjoy the conversations the books generate.
How did Books to Bridge the Region develop? Participants of the Post-Tribune's former One Region, One Book wanted to continue the synergy found in that four-year project. Books to Bridge the Region is not owned or managed by any one educational or media entity and does not intend to replace other area One Read initiatives. On the contrary, we encourage participation in programs that foster reading.
Take a look at this year's book selections!
