SUGAR POP THOUGHTS

"I've been accused of being upbeat, energetic, and perky," says Shayna Lance. The listener has to agree upon hearing her lively narration—a reading that reflects her positive and humorous view of life. Sugar Pop, the child to whom Lance directs her thoughts, is one lucky daughter! Lance began writing when she thought she might not survive ovarian cancer and wanted to pass on some solid advice to her daughter. But Sugar Pop's mom has made a full recovery and recorded superbly witty views on men, makeup, media manipulation, and other topics. Having survived six foster homes, cancer, being jilted at the altar, infertility, and miscarriage has left Lance with sharp, sensitive, and sometimes-sarcastic insights. Her words and voice will make listeners laugh out loud and Sugar Pop thrive. S.W. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award, 2009 Audies Finalist © AudioFile 2009, Portland, Maine [Published: APRIL 2009]
