MAITLAND, FL— Deb DeFine’s new book, Snapshots From My Visit to Planet Earth, ($12.99, paperback, 9781498433341; $6.99, e-book, 9781498433358) will have readers laughing and nodding in agreement as she describes true stories from her unique journey in life. Written to lift the spirits of readers traversing a sometimes dark and gloomy postmodern world, Deb depicts her memories in a way to encourage readers to see humor and meaning in their unusual experiences.
“If laughter is the best medicine, then Snapshots From My Visit to Planet Earth is a large dose of that antidote,” states the author. “I want the book to provide a temporary escape from the rigors and responsibilities of modern life, such that readers will be able to identify with the different stories but also to laugh at them because, after all, they happened to someone else.”
Deb DeFine considers her voyage through Life 101 as what established her “street cred” for the book. After being born and raised in the Midwest, she spent 13 years taming the jungles of New York City. Several trips to South America and Europe also seasoned her life story qualities, creating an eclectic montage of treasured moments and comical anecdotes involving people from all walks of life and points on the map. “I learned that while the venue and other exterior factors change — set, costumes, makeup, lights, score — the script remains remarkably familiar, because the players all have similar stories to tell,” Deb states.
