Susan Lerner and Nancy Meyer are sisters, and first time authors. Together, they wrote a fictional romance novel based on their own lives, called September Somewhere. The story follows the saga of three law school friends who agree to travel together to a new location every year in September. Over the years, the characters lives’ and careers evolve, as does the sexual tension between the trio.
The story reveals their lives, friendship, and romantic relationships as they come together annually for a vacation to reconnect with each other, including destinations in Paris, Miami, Crested Butte, Martha’s Vineyard, Sag Harbour, San Francisco, and New York.
Promotions and events to share September Somewhere with various groups who would enjoy the fun love-triangle romance, including young adults and college grads, who are travelling for Spring Break, taking a Summer Break or “gap year” in Europe – has successfully pushed the book onto Amazon’s Bestseller List in related travel categories.
“We are so proud. It’s been such a long journey, and to have our shared dreams of becoming published book authors fulfilled has us filled with gratitude. We hope that this bestseller achievement will inspire other people to explore their creative side, and give back to their communities. This book is not just a romance novel, it’s a part of our journey to support ALS research and awareness, and to inspire other people like us to help their own.” shared Lerner and Meyer.
Travel related organizations who connect with young adult and college students, are being approached to offer copies of September Somewhere free, or sold at a discount, to their members. Potential partner groups include university/college and young adult travel clubs and book clubs. Also any group related to ALS medical research would be a welcomed alliance for the authors.
Lerner and Meyer call themselves “2 Grandmas With A Purpose” because a portion of the proceeds from the sale of this book is being directed toward the Robert Packard Center for ALS Research at Johns Hopkins. For more information on the Packard Center and their work, please visit www.alscenter.org
