A great gift giving book that delights and gives u a warm and fuzzy feeling

Here’s a lovely review posted at Amazon.com:
What a pick me up book…A great gift giving book that delights and gives u a warm and fuzzy feeling.. Perfect to give to a friend for a birthday or just a general Brighten up your day read. I am planning on ordering some to keep on hand for such a occasion. I did order my Mother a copy and her comment was “Its just adorable ” Its a quick read so the person you give it to doesn’t have to be a avid reader or have the time to read a book that takes them weeks to finish. The illustrations are very charming and makes you understand the sweetness of this book. Everyone will smile after reading this like I did.

We hope you will enjoy the book as much as this reader did.

Happy Equinox-Easter-Passover!

There is every reason
To celebrate this season: 

Embrace the Spirit, go and have fun 
Under the Creator’s glorious sun.

Marketing – how does one do it?

This past year has been the year of the book
Considering all the hours it took.

Now I need to commence
recouping the expense.

Marketing is not really my cup of tea
But it’s an absolute necessity! –

And while I am working on this writ
I’m wondering “how does one do it?”

We’re so close to publishing!

I know you’re expecting a ditty
that’s smart or maybe witty
re: the status of “the” book.
Well, I’ll not squawk like a rook
I will simply state:

Searching for an answer to an age-old question

Now that JOYS and LAMENTS of GETTING OLDER is in it’s final stages and ready to be published (at least the first limited edition) I am getting involved with new topics and am looking at “LOVE” – what is it?

Would you like to share your thoughts on this subject? For now, I will keep my thoughts out of your way for now.

Results of the 4th “advance read” are in…

These words almost brought tears to my eyes.  I am moved that the outpourings of my heart and soul had such an effect.

Lissa E writes:
“…..it was a privilege to read this book, a real pleasure.”
“…. this book is joy for the soul and I want to share it with so many…..”
“…..facts and truth, inspirational, enlightening”

Thank you, Lissa E

More reviews – thank you

It warmed my heart to read the comments of our third reviewer who wrote:

“I feel honored that you asked me to review the advance copy…

This is a beautiful and touching book..  I wanted to take the time to savor the book so have read it several times…it made me cry, laugh, think, re-evaluate and recommit to really living in the present.”

Thank you, Gwendolyn Y.
