A former speech pathologist and guidance counselor, Lori Nelson Spielman currently works as a homebound teacher for inner-city students. Her debut novel, The Life List, was inspired when she discovered an abandoned life list she’d written as a teen. It has been translated into 16 languages, and Fox 2000 has purchased the film option.

Lori enjoys fitness running, traveling, and reading, though writing is her true passion. She and her husband spend their winters cursing the god-awful Michigan winters, and their summers sailing the glorious shores of Lake Michigan.

Lori would be honored to be a guest at your book club, should you select The Life List. If she's in your area, she'd be happy to visit in person. If not, perhaps Facetime or Skype.

Ideas for a unique book club experience:
• Consider a “Bring your Daughter (or Mother) to Book Club” event. The Life List is a perfect read for mothers and daughters.
• Bring your old life list to share, if you have one.
• Create a new life list and share with others. Just email me your address and the number of members in your club, and I’ll send each of you your very own life list. (From the author.)
