SPEAKERS 6:45: Albert Monreal Quihuis, writer, author, speaker and businessman with his partner/client Veronica Lamanes to speak about their partnership while writing her memoir. How they made it all happen and how they are promoting it to their audiences.
Better Than Me is based on a true story of three generations of women: Veronica, her mother Maria and her wise grandmother Manuela. Their tragedies, misfortunes and their inner strength to survive, persevere and succeed so the next generation could have a better life is shown in stories of betrayal and poverty to prejudice and the murder of a loved one. This is Veronica’s story, rich and inspiring, her journey from her roots in Mexico to her natural American citizen status.
Albert is also the author of many children’s books: Isabela’s Treasure, Sofia’s Awesome Tamale Day and The Search for the lost Art of Making Tortillas. He inspires his readers by creating a wide imagination of his book characters. His books are for children and those with a young heart, to open their eyes and see the beauty of appreciating different cultures, traditions and history.
