Story About "Getting to Know Your Child's Brain" Published in Press & News in Late Dec.

   With all the mass shootings in this country lately, there has been a lot of attention on mental illness as the likely cause; but not many people have talked about the possible origins of the crises. It is likely that many of the offenders had recognizable issues all the way back in their early childhoods.
   Tressa Reisetter, Ph.D., a Twin Cities neuropsychologist, points out that when a child acts out, it isn’t necessarily to upset their caregivers or even to get attention, but because there is something going on in their brain neither of you understand.
   “Sometimes kids just explode and people don’t know why. Sometimes it’s because they don’t get enough sleep. Sometimes it’s because they are not eating the right diet. There is an intimate relationship between nutrition and mental health,” says Reisetter, who adds that positivity also plays a role.
   To help clear up the confusion a lot of people have about child behavior, Dr. Reisetter has written the book, Getting to Know Your Child’s Brain, released earlier this year by Calumet Editions of Edina, Minn.
   A story about the book is in the Dec. 20 issue of the Press & News newspaper. Dr. Reisetter was also interviewed on WCCO Radio in Minneapolis about her book in the on Nov. 27.

Eau Claire Author Cathy Sultan Helps 200 Art & Wine on Main Launch New "Women Writers on Wednesday" Series Dec. 5

   Cathy Sultan, author, Damascus Street, helped 200 Main Art & Wine in Eau Claire, Wisc., launch a new “Women Writers on Wednesday” series the evening of Dec. 5. WEAU-Television, the NBC affiliate in Eau Claire, covered the event, which Sultan also previewed on Wisconsin Public Radio on late November.
   At the event, Sultan discussed her latest novel, which is set in a Lebanon still struggling to cope with the political repercussions of a bloody 15-year civil war. In the story, Andrew Sullivan, an idealistic American physician, becomes the unknowing pawn in a deadly spy game where an intricate cast of characters lures him into a maze of deception and illusion. As he attempts to find and rescue his fiancée Nadia, who was kidnapped by Syria’s former Intelligence chief, this riveting political thriller takes surprising turns in a tale of lost innocence and survival.
   The story is a sequel to The Syrian. Sultan has also written several nonfiction books about the Middle East and at the event explained the complexities of the Middle East, a place where nothing is as it seems.
