#Sisterhoodoftheshortyellowpencils: Mental Health Mayhem, One Sticky Note at a Time -- Amber Weigand-Buckley, Paperback

No neat chapters. No tidy bow. Just sticky notes, stubby pencils, and the things most people are too ashamed to say out loud.

In #sisterhoodoftheshortyellowpencils, 2026 International Impact Book Award winner Amber Weigand-Buckley offers an honest, funny, unconventional look at life with bipolar disorder, anxiety, ADHD, depression, and a wonderfully neurodivergent brain. Part memoir, part interactive art experience, and entirely its own thing, this book follows the rabbit trails instead of pretending they are not there.

Through candid stories, cartoons, prompts, doodles, hidden details, and unexpected connections, Amber explores mental health, family, faith, stigma, shame, and what it means to keep showing up when your brain does not follow a straight line. Along the way, readers meet her British husband Philip, her three daughters, the Neurospice Girls, and the everyday chaos that provides plenty of material for both laughter and reflection.

This is not a book about fixing yourself. It is an invitation to recognize that a diagnosis does not disqualify you from purpose, leadership, connection, or a meaningful life.

If you have ever felt like too much, not enough, or simply wired differently, welcome to the sisterhood.
