  San Juan Books is the hybrid division of MSI Press LLC. It allows first-time writers to become published in a traditional way through the reduction of risk by sharing publication costs. 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 Dr. Kristin Wilcox. Dr. Kristin Wilcox has a Ph.D. in Pharmacology from the University of Mississippi Medical Center in Jackson, MS and has spent over 20 years as a researcher studying the pharmacological and behavioral effects of drugs at Emory University in Atlanta, GA and then at John Hopkins University School of Medicine in Baltimore, MD.  She has authore

  One of the fun things that a publisher (or at least, an acquisitions editor) gets to experience is meeting more than one member of a family -- as authors whose work we publish.

Kristin (Dr. Wilcox) attacks the topic of ADHD from the point of view of a specialist in their award-winning book, Andrew's Awesome Adventures with His ADHD Brain . Andrew, a remarkable young man with ADHD, describes what ADHD is lile on an everyday basis from the viewpoint of someone trying to handle life while coping with ADHD. Powerful!

  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? Kids with ADHD will relate to Andrew’s reactions to everyday and school-related situations, like remembering to turn in homework, staying organized, and making friends.  Using practical strategies Andrew learns to manage his ADHD even when his brain sometimes feels “like and overstuffed garbage can, the lid won’t stay on and garbage is falling out all over the floor”.  He even realizes there is a positive side to having ADHD like creativity, fearlessness and hyperfocus.  Dr. Wilcox’s unique perspective as bo

“My brain is an overstuffed garbage can — the lid doesn’t stay on, and stuff is falling out all over the floor.” This is how my son describes what it’s like to have ADHD.   When he was initially diagnosed, I thought I understood ADHD: it was found mostly in boys who were hyperactive, impulsive, fidgeting, blurting out in the classroom. My son, who had been diagnosed with the inattentive subtype of ADHD, had none of these behaviors.   Unfortunately, the stereotypical view of a boy with ADHD has changed little over the past several decades.   This was the motivation for my son and I to share our experiences with his ADHD in our book Andrew's Awesome Adventures with His ADHD Brain   (MSI Press, 2022).   I continue my mission of spreading awareness of inattentive-type ADHD, particularly in boys, through my blog on Psychology Today , and by writing for various ADHD groups.   October is ADHD Awareness Month, and you can read more about my journey with my ADHD son in this article
