Welcome back to hashtag Sisters-in-law with Barb McQuaid, Joyce Fance, and me, Jill Wein-Banks.

Don't worry, Kim will be back next week. She's off this week. There's some

book news from the sisters. Barb, you want to start with the news? What's the news? My book?

Yeah, do you have a new book coming? I do. I think I've discussed it here before, have I not?

Well, there's never a bad time to discuss a new book that's coming out.

Okay. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm so shy. All right. Well, thank you. If you're going to drag it out of me,

I do have a new book coming out. I'm working on it now. It'll come out next June. It's called The Fix.

It's a double entendre,

you see, because I talk about how the current administration is running our government like

a mob ring, so the fix is in. But I also spend most of the book offering solutions, hence

the Fix, about how we can improve some of the guardrails in our government

so that we can lead and restore our democracy and not be subject to the whims of an organized

crime figure. That is so important. I can't wait for that to come out. And Joyce, you're on a book tour right now.

Well, I am, but let me just say about Barb's book. I think your timing is perfect because it's going to come out right when we're getting ready to move past this administration.

And people really will want to know what the fix like. So I can't wait

to see it. Do I maybe get to like help and review a draft, or is it too late? Absolutely. Oh,

no, I'd love to have that, both of you, all three of you, my sisters. I have like new perspective

being on a book tour, which is actually really fun. The thing I didn't expect was how much fun it would

be to get to talk

with people about the book, but also to go around the country and to get inspired by all the

things people are doing. You know, so many of our listeners have walked up to me. There have been

tons of people in Sisters-in-law T-shirts and the wonderful new hoodie, which I found I was able to go home
