"I will sing to the Lord all my life;

I will sing praise to my God as long as I live.

May my meditation be pleasing to him,

as I rejoice in the Lord."

Psalm 104: 33-34, NIV

Discover Why...

Truer Words were never spoken.

Let me take you on a journey to the lowcountry of SC during the Victorian era where a very wealthy young woman, Emma Victoria Brown, was born and raised on a large plantation with a family secret that could cost them all their very lives.

The story follows her through trials, love, laughter, and all the things that make life worth living.

It's about being strong and doing the right thing in the face of adversity.

Even Kramer seems interested:).

I have been performing excerpts from the novel throughout the

Southeast for nearly eight years now at various venues such as churches, museums, country clubs, and teahouses.

And now the book is available telling the rest of the story.

 This past Saturday we were blessed with a lovely book signing event at

Time Well Spent tea house in Summerville, SC.

Hubby accompanied me:).

I always dress in Victorian era attire for book signings and performances.

Time Well Spent is one of those special places located in an 1890s Victorian house.

 My latest dress, a little 1880s number.

 The stained glass corner overlooking the gardens was a favorite spot...

for both of us:).

I truly appreciate all of my blogland friends who have left kind comments about my book.

I would like to share some info about the book and upcoming book signings.

The beautiful cover of the book is due to two incredibly talented men.

My dear friend, Richard Darby, took the photograph of the Live Oak tree for the cover.

The cover design was done by Shawn Collins at Tate Publishing.

I will be travelling this summer to Petersburg, VA, Mentor/Cleveland, Ohio, and Louisville, KY to do book signings.

If any of you live in or near these areas I would love to meet you!

"Gold there is, and rubies in abundance,

but lips that speak knowledge are a rare jewel."

Proverbs 20:15, NIV

Books...

What is it about books?

It is the words within...

 the decorative details...

the facts...

the knowledge earned...

 the intrigue of a good story...

 or the building of a new talent?

I love books!!!

I love the feel of a book as I peruse each page while being transported to a different time or place.

Books are a wonder and a gift providing entertainment, knowledge, guidance.

Nothing can make a rainy afternoon more enjoyable than curling up with a cup of tea on a comfy chair with a good book.

Today a little magic was added to that image for me.

After years of work and sharing the story of Emma Victoria Brown with audiences throughout the southest my novel, Truer Words, was released nationwide.

I pray that all who read Emma's story find joy, laughter, inspiration, and love.

Blessings,

"Charm is deceptive,

and beauty is fleeting;

but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised."

Proverbs 31: 30, NIV

Busy, busy, busy...

Wow, it has been some time since I have visited my blogland friends!

Things have been busy with performances,

tending to roses,

tending roses,

 tending to Kramer,

With all that is going on I hope to take the time to visit my blogland friends soon!

Please be patient with me:).

I miss you all!
