Acclaimed local author Sandra Benitez has come out with a new book, but you won't be able to find it in any book store. Benitez, who has earned nearly two dozen honors for her work, including a Minnesota Book Award, struggled to find a publisher for her new memoir, "Bag Lady." The book recounts her battle with a form of Irritable Bowel Disease and the surgery that changed her life. Concerned that the book would be a hard sell, publishers passed on it. So, Benitez and her husband published the memior themselves.
