WELCOME TO L.L. LEE'S NEW BLOG

A BLOG THAT DISCUSSES L.L. LEE'S BOOKS. ALL OF THE NOVELS HAVE STRONG FEMALE CHARACTERS. SOME OF THE BOOKS SUCH AS THOSE IN THE SISTERS SERIES ARE HUMOROUS. OTHERS, LIKE JUDE'S BENCH OR A BENCH ON THE BEACH ARE MORE SERIOUS. AND IN SENIOR CAMP 2035, THE WOMEN PROTAGONISTS FACE HORROR WITH BRAVERY AND DETERMINATION IN DIRE CIRCUMSTANCES.

Widows and the Holidays

It's that time again. Time for cheer and joy as the holiday season is already here. But this is not a good time for those of us who are still grieving. We feel our losses more strongly than ever during this special season.  Even if we lost our loved ones years ago. We remember the good times. We watch Christmas movies over and over again. And we cry for those joyful Christmas days of the past. My book, "A Good Catch" is about widows who have grieved for years and are ready to get on with their lives. It is a joyful, fun novel because it offers hope for us. Hope that we will not always be lonely and that it is okay for us to still feel the pain of the passing of a loved one, especially during the holidays.

A NEW WIDOW & A NEW NOVEL

I lost my brother-in-law a couple of weeks ago. His wife is heart-broken and as I try to console her, I relive the passing of my husband (his brother) nine years ago. During these early stages of widowhood, when you are still in shock, you feel as if you are going to wake up from a bad dream and life will be back to normal. It is the fantasy that keeps us going. The fantasy that gives us hope.

And so it is with my books. I try to give myself and all who have lost someone we love a little bit of make-believe to get us through. So, despite my sadness, I will take up my pen, rather my computer, and continue another book in my Sisters Series. This time I am sending my sisters to Sicily to pick up an inheritance left by an uncle who has just died.

Like all the novels in the series, this book is a humorous mystery with just a little bit of romance. A book to make you smile, especially during a time when you have little to smile about.

Sending The Sisters to Sicily


Started a new book in the Sisters Series. I am sending them on an adventure to Sicily. They have aged a little, but haven't changed much. Still LOL funny and endearing.
Today's your last chance to get A Good Catch for free on Kindle. Selling well and am getting good feedback.
Missing my husband a lot today. He would be telling me how proud he is of me that I continue to write. That I continue to try to make people laugh. I still feel him encouraging me as I start my new project. How lucky I was to have had this wonderful man in my life for so many years.

"A GOOD CATCH FINDS ITS AUDIENCE

I recently discussed my latest book, A Good Catch, at a library luncheon in Bay St. Louis, MS. The women in the audience, especially those who had lost partners or spouses, were very involved in the question and answer period following my presentation. Those questions reflected the need to be able to share the pain of loss, the road back from devastation following the loss of a loved one, and the hope we all have to find love and companionship again. I believe I have found my audience for the novel. There was lots of laughter when I read from the book. Great participation and interest. Now I just need for this type of mature audience to find the book.

A GOOD CATCH FOR WOMEN OF ALL AGES

A woman who recently purchased "A Good Catch" at my first booksigning, read the review in the Sun Herald and drove to the Bay in a storm to get it. She had lost two husbands and was lonely. "We have to go on living,"she said."My children don't understand." With those words, I thought I had found my audience for the book. Women over forty who had lost a husband, partner, companion and who wanted to get on with their lives. Woman who wanted to laugh again. Then, a young woman told me how much she really enjoyed the book. Her mother had suffered a loss and was trying to find a reason to go on. Another young woman told me what a great "play" the book would make. What I learned from the feedback I've received regarding the book is this. This is a book of hope, of looking forward to the future no matter how old you are. And the search for love may be heartbreaking, but it's also fun and exciting no matter what your age.

A New Year & A Good Catch

Survived the holidays and have been busy getting my new book, "A Good Catch," ready for publishing. Need some cover art and editing finished and it will be ready to go. It's a small book, lots of fun, but deals with serious issues of widowhood also. The book tells the story of seven grief support group members who have been meeting together for four years since the loss of their mates. They decide it's time to get on with their lives and begin trolling for new partners. Some join in reluctantly, some eagerly, all humorously. The characters are strong Southern women who are certain to make you laugh. I think this book will be good medicine for those of us who have lost a loved one and thought we'd never laugh again.
