When author Gail Mencini<\/strong> wrote her fiction novel To Tuscany with Love,<\/a> <\/strong>she included a character who must deal with breast cancer. The novel follows the adventures of Bella Rossini, a vivacious college junior, who is suddenly thrust into living in Tuscany with seven strangers during one life-altering summer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gail, a breast cancer survivor, hoped that writing about the struggles with breast cancer would remind women of the importance of mammograms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She was thrilled when, this week, reader Toni Daylor<\/strong> emailed to tell her that the novel nudged her to make a long overdue appointment for a mammogram. Toni also included a selfie of her and her Xray tehnician, holding a copy of Gail’s book. Gail asked for permission to post it to her Facebook page, and from there, word is spreading.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Little did I know that the book would actually have this type of effect, even though that was my hope,” Gail said. “And, by the way, it’s also good publicity.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Takeaway:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Jump on testimonial photos like this one.<\/strong> It’s a feel-good story that your friends, followers and fans will love to share and, often, it can be just as powerful as getting a great book review. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
