Using blunt scissors, pages from a Big Chief tablet, a borrowed stapler and a Number Two pencil, Susan Wiggs self-published her first novel at the age of eight. A Book About Some Bad Kids [I still have this-CL] was based on the true-life adventures of Susan and her siblings, and the first printing of one copy was a complete sell-out.

Marrying Daisy Bellamy
Marrying Daisy Bellamy
Synopsis
Daisy Bellamy has built a life around her young son Charlie and a growing photography career in the Catskills town of Avalon. For years her heart has been divided between Logan O'Donnell, Charlie's father, a man determined to make a family out of what they have, and Julian Gastineaux, the reckless, brilliant friend who has never quite let her go.
Susan Wiggs closes out a long-running thread in the Lakeshore Chronicles with a novel about the cost of waiting. Julian's military career keeps him at a distance and in danger; Logan offers stability and a ready-made household. Daisy must decide whether the safe choice is the honest one, and whether the life she wants is the one she has been talking herself into.
The familiar Willow Lake setting and the extended Bellamy family surround a story about single motherhood, loyalty, and the difference between love and obligation.
