Franklin, NC—Deanna Lawrence, two-time Emmy winner and Franklin resident, has released her memoir and first book, Sometimes…A Storyteller’s Journal.

“As a storyteller for more than three decades, it is an honor to share some of the life experiences I had as a television journalist,” said Lawrence.

Sometimes…is a personal sharing of the “stories behind the stories.”  The veteran TV news reporter learned about people and about life over the many years she spent on the reporting beat.

Lawrence has served as journalist, anchor, producer and photographer, with more than thirty years at WTVT Ch. 13 in Tampa, Florida.  A graduate of Northwestern University, Deanna is an award-winning storyteller.  Among her accolades, she was honored with international, national and regional awards, including two regional Emmys, the Associated Press Award of Excellence and the International New York Film Festival Silver Medal.

“I hope those who read this book, gain a better understanding of what it truly means to be a storyteller, and a real appreciation of  the stories behind the stories,” said Lawrence.

Copies of Lawrence’s book can be found on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Kobo, and in local bookstores.
