I can’t decide if choosing a book cover is grueling or exciting. Perhaps a little of both.
WOW: A Word of Wisdom for Healthy Living is perking right along with a Thanksgiving target publication date. So, book covers are on my mind. WOW is a book about food, a book about herbs, a book about health. I’m thinking a set table with pretty dishes and perhaps a little bit of fall involved. Don’t you think that evokes a health vibe?
Here are a couple we’ve been playing with…any thoughts? ideas?
I’m a reader. From elementary age, reading under the covers with a flashlight to power reading between laundry loads, or reading a chapter at 2 am, reading has always been a part of who I am and what I do. Recently, one of my granddaughters shared a stack of 8 books with me. We share […]

I’m from a tiny Missouri burg, and I still just LOVE IT. Sure, I had some harrowing experiences growing up, but I also met Jesus, learned lessons that would guide me through life’s struggles, and cemented life-long friends who are more like siblings. So, I’m happy as a kitty in catnip to be going “home” […]
by John Heinerman If you like Latter-Day Saints historical accounts, this book is for you. I enjoy journal entries as it puts me in their shoes, so to speak. The book ties the LDS belief in the “Word of Wisdom” to specific foods and shows the evolution of its practice. I was slightly disappointed as […]
Forged in Love is the first of three sweet romances* in the Wyoming Sunrise Series. I love cowboys. I love the smell of leather, the sound a saddle makes when you “mount up”, the rolling hills and sweeping valleys of horse country. I also appreciate the harsh reality of forging a living in the country […]
I love historical fiction. And, this one is special because it’s about the author’s family. The story wound itself within the double helix of Emily Beeson’s family and emerged in this beautiful poignant tale of love, heartache, and redemption. The heroine, Ellen Breakell, sat in their family pew guilt enveloping her like an evil shroud. “Maybe […]
Catherine has done a beautiful job in bringing her brother, Charlie, out of a nightmare’s darkness into the light that only love can accomplish. She gives us the opportunity to know him as she does, to see and feel his great spirit, to look beyond the uncertainty, and grab hold of the essence that is […]
Oh, my goodness how I love to read!!! In addition to the obvious, (books) I collect memes, jokes, cartoons, and essays, about books! And, I know some of you do, too. I get lost in author’s bios and author’s how-to’s and author’s stories. Of course, I love to write as well–guess books and writing […]
To say my first book signing was a little out of the ordinary is like saying Alice knew exactly what she was doing when she went down the rabbit hole. Check it out here.
