I received my copies of HEART OF THE HOLIDAYS yesterday, and the book is every bit as beautiful as you said. The cover is really outstanding and however it is displayed in the book stores, I think it should draw a lot of attention. What a gorgeous shade of red!
I leafed through the book, which of course, I could not read in total for now, but I did see all of my poems (naturally), and I did read quite a number of the excerpts you included … along with your own writings. I decided you are no slouch when it comes to doing poetry, too, and I did like what I came across with your name underneath,’as author.’ Obviously, you are a multi-talented woman. (smile)
Thank you for the personally autographed copy…it will be my personal copy to treasure, not to be given to anyone else, and it would really be an honor for me.
I plan to buy some more copies to use for Christmas gifts.
It really is a neat little book, Sheryl. I really was impressed with all the items you had in it and can only imagine what a chore that had to be to collect everything and sort it all out… so you really deserve any and all accolades you get, my friend.
Luv and God Bless,
Ginny
