May I Ask a Favor?

-


It's been almost two months since the release of Words of Encouragement for a Discouraged World.  I've been encouraged by the response from those who have purchased the book and how the book is helping women.  That was my desire when I wrote it!

May I ask you a favor today?  If you have purchased, Words of Encouragement for a Discouraged World, would you be willing to go to Amazon.com and leave a customer review if you have not already done so?  If you purchased the book from some place other than Amazon, that does not matter.  You can still leave a review.

 Book reviews help other women who are considering purchasing it.  The further up in the ranks the book goes on Amazon, the more it will show up in search results.  Obviously, it helps me to sell the book.  Besides the desire to encourage other women, and fulfill my life long dream of writing, I have been trying to help our family by providing some sort of income that will also allow me to stay home and be available to my husband, children and church family.  So I would so appreciate it if you would be willing to do this!

 Also, if you have read the book, and would be willing, I'd love it if you would consider writing a book review on your blog.  If that is something you would consider, you can contact me via email, and I'll chat with you about that.  I would link back to your blog here if you choose to write a review.

 You can go to Amazon by clicking on the book cover above.  Under the stars at the top of the page is a button that says, Create Your Own Review.  Thank you so much for your help!

 Have a blessed weekend. :-)

    Terri, I wrote a review for amazon a while ago, and am still benefiting from reading your book every day. I'm sure sales will pick up even if it is gradual.

      I saw your review when you did it, Barbara. Thank you! For some reason reviews on Amazon.UK are not linked with Amazon.com in the U.S. Not sure why that is but I did see it.

    Terri, I can write a review on my blog. I was thinking of doing it on Monday, June 3rd. I am enjoying the book and would love to share how I am using it. I can work on writing the post this weekend.

Oh What to Do; I'm Sixty-Two!

Today is my sixty-second birthday and it's hard to believe I've achieved that....um....seasoned age! My first thought this morning was one of not being sure that I like it. However,  as I thought I about it, I decided to take joy in the fact that I've reached an older age. Because age comes with benefits. Benefit #1 - I'm a bit wiser.   When I look back at some of the decisions I made when I was younger, I cringe. With age has come the ability to slow down and think things through before I make major upheavals in my life. I've also discovered that getting worked up about certain things is just an absolute waste of emotional energy. Benefit #2 - I'm enjoying my life.   As I've aged I've learned all kinds of skills and hobbies and can honestly say that I'm never, ever bored. I love all the different things I'm able to do and it's fun! Benefit #3 - I've learned to appreciate my relationships. With age I've learned to work on developing a...

Eating to Live

  Despite the unexpected busyness and interruptions, I have been plugging away at my weight loss as well as writing the plant-based, whole food cookbook. Recipe testing fell by the wayside the past two weeks, but I've still gotten a good chunk of the book done. I also got on the scale this morning for another one pound loss which makes a total of 61 lbs. since I started this journey back in July. It's second nature at this point and I have so much more energy and feel healthy. The only negative is that because I've lost so much weight I'm seeing some sagging, crepe-papery skin happening. Yuck. Some of that is age and I need to figure out some toning exercises. It's definitely a life-style change, but a positive one which I'm so thankful I started on. The pictures above are a small selection of meals I've eaten the past two months and many of those will be included in the book.  This will be a printable e-book as I find that will be the easiest and most cost ...

When the Unexpected Pops Up

On Thursday afternoon, just as Dan and I were getting ready to leave for a meeting, we received a phone call from our son. He was sitting on the side of the road with a blown engine in his car. The problem is he lives 3 1/2 hours away. After back and forth phone calls he called a tow truck and got it towed to a garage. He ended up renting a car and headed here for the holiday. We've been working with him to figure out his next steps because he still owes thousands of dollars on the car which will also take a significant amount to replace the engine. His rent is going up in the new year. His seasonal job ended and he is trying to find something else, but needs a car for that to happen. His car still has not been looked at by the mechanic. It is all more than a little overwhelming. Long story short, we extended an invitation for him to live here temporarily so he can get out from under all of this. It would save him money on expensive rent and utilities.  The timing was right since h...
