Meet author Donna Lynn Lito at the Lowcountry Stars Stage!

When Mae—a free-spirited college student with high aspirations and a carefree lifestyle—meets a handsome, motivated, ambitious guy, her life seems perfect and complete.

But what will happen when two disparate worlds collide?

Soon, Mae finds herself caught up in the demands of motherhood and manipulation, struggling to find and assert her authentic self. Where is the fun-loving young woman she used to know? Can she ever intertwine other people’s expectations with the desires and beliefs she has always held dear?

Mae confronts a tough decision: she can either muster the courage to break free from societal norms or remain trapped, feeling lost and miserable while maintaining her ‘perfect’ family intact. 

Letting Go delves into the complex, emotional, and often intimidating consequences of a young woman’s struggle to overcome her fears and embrace her truest, happiest self. 

Donna Lynn Lito earned her master’s degree in creative writing in May 2024. She currently produces podcasts and blogs on her website, Donnalynnbooks.com. 

In addition to her latest novel, Letting Go, she is the author of 4FCKS SAKE and Securely Insecure. Stay tuned for her upcoming book, The Mixing Bowl, which will be released later in 2025.  When she’s not writing, Donna Lynn enjoys life in beautiful Summerville and exploring the Low Country. She loves spending time in South Carolina, creating her authentic life while “letting go” of the past and focusing on the future.
