Grandma Wisdom

July 2017

Dear Readers,

It's only been a few years since I lost my grandma, her birthday would have been last weekend. When I was little I wanted to write a book of all the funny things she said.

I think my favorite was "You make a better door than a window." (You're blocking the view.)

She had others I loved like, "Marry in haste, regret in leisure." And, "When you get married, everything should be new inside and out." (Buy new underwear.)

Of course, everyone's grandma probably said, "This too, shall pass."

And I certainly needed her words during the last six months. I've never had more discouragement for a project, more false starts or anxiety.

So much that I didn't even announce when Book 2 was released. I put my other books on sale instead and wrote about how I wasn't going to take on any hard projects again.

But finally, I'm done. All three books are available. Thank you for the love and encouragement I've received. It's the only reason I was able to carry on and complete it. Here you are!
