About the Author:
Annette Langer completed a successful career with the Federal Government, taking an early retirement after over 26 years’ service. She went back to school then and trained for a new calling, this time as a travel agent, rewarding work she did for many years thereafter.
Although she has dabbled in writing much of her life, it was only recently that she began in earnest to focus on it with a purpose. Her debut book Healing Through Humor: Change Your Focus, Change Your Life! was the result. The book has been very well received by reviewers and readers alike.

How I met the Author:
Annette is one of those rare personalities that you meet who you know is going to be a joy to be around. She is full of humor and has a positive outlook that is infectious. I had the pleasure of being trapped in a car with her and our doubious driver for a few days last summer as we attempted to hawk our books, buzzing between book stores and civic centers all over the Bay Area near Oakland, California.
It would be hard pressed to describe our experience better than to just call it Mr. Toads Wild Ride. This was supposed to be a simple booksigning schedule, but became an adventure dealing with our host, whom was an odd duck for sure. We went to senior centers during their lunch time. Needless to say, they were more interested in a hot meal than a hot deal. We laid out books to near empty civic centers and bistro botiques one after the other. I've never been to so many venues to sell books that were so empty in all my life. It became funny if it wasn't so sad. The best thing about the whole thing was just meeting Annette. I know you'll love her books. John Wolf
