Fully Connected

Hello there all you lovely folks!

I have been away from writing this blog for a long time again, but for a good reason! I spent the summer and fall writing very diligently, and then editing, my new book, Fully Connected: How to Live With More Contentment and Freedom. Sheri and I self-published the book on October 21,2023! It is now up and available on Amazon!

I ordered some author’s copies, and they arrived yesterday. I went to pick them up at the post office and as I walked away, bearing a large box of books, with a huge, joyful smile on my face, an elderly gentleman stopped me and said, “Wow! You look as though it is already Christmas morning.” And for me, it truly was!

There is no feeling as sweet as to hold for the first time a book I have lovingly written. For me, it feels pretty much the same as I felt when each of my daughters were born. In the case of writing a book, or growing a baby, for months I worked hard to provide what was needed for the growth and development of the healthiest book/baby I could. Then there was the labour and delivery part- in the case of a book, submitting to weeks of painstaking editing until I was as sure as I could be that the punctuation was correct and the typos were minimal. (There is always one I missed!)

As I stood at the post office and looked at my new book I felt tremendous pride in myself, for sticking with the process and for doing the absolute best I could to write a book which I hope will be helpful to many.

I wanted to let you all know of this happy moment in my life!

All the best to each of you as we enter the cold, dark time of the year. Advent is coming! May you winter well, and I look forward to sharing with you again soon.
