All other publishing features are traditional in nature, and most SJB authors go on to be offered traditional contracts for their subsequent books. SJB publications are available as paperback, hard cover, and e-book versions. SJB authors' books very much hold their own against their contemporaries in the traditional publishing division. Indeed, a number of them have outsold their traditional compatriots. Today, San Juan Books presents author Andrew Wilcox.

Andrew plays the trumpet in marching band and plays the piano.  He has his black belt in karate, is a sprinter on the track team, and enjoys skiing with family and friends.  Andrew loves to fix computers and other electronics.

  Excerpt from Andrew's Awesome Adventures with His ADHD Brain Some Days I Need to Seek Shelter from the Tornado   I wouldn’t characterize myself as a “neat freak” although my husband and children would say otherwise. Having a child with ADHD whose idea of organization is a big pile on the floor has been a bit of a challenge for me. Andrew loves to go to flea markets and shop for antiques, and his “treasures” always seem to end up thrown on a miscellaneous pile shoved into a corner on the floor of his bedroom. One weekend I mentioned to Andrew we were going to clean out his room, which was getting too cluttered with all his collections. Andrew’s response to me was “Mom, why are we bothering to clean up my room? It’s going to stay organized for all of ten minutes.

   Edward Hallowell, M.D.,  Harvard psychologist and  co-author of  Driven to Distraction  and  ADHD 2.0  had this to say about Andrew's Awesome Adventures with His Awesome ADHD Brain : Andrew's Awesome Adventures  is awesome indeed! It is also unique, in that the book combines Andrew's perspective as a child with his mom's perspective both as a mother and as a scientist who's expert on the latest findings on ADHD. Not only unique, this book is also entertaining, well-written, highly informative, and immensely helpful to anyone concerned about ADHD, especially as it occurs in boys who are not disruptive or hyperactive. A superb contribution to the field.  --- For more posts about the Wilcoxes and their books, click HERE . Sign up for the MSI Press LLC newsletter.

  Released this week: Andrew's Awesome Adventures with His ADHD Brain by Dr. Kristin Wilcox with Andrew Wilcox. Available from the MSI Press webstore at 25% discount. Use code FF25. Change what you think you know about ADHD.  In this two-part book, Andrew, a child with inattentive-type ADHD, and his mom, Kristin Wilcox, Ph.D., each tell their story about living with the inattentive subtype of ADHD.  How do you survive life and middle school with an ADHD elephant in your brain?
