For my corrected copies of Lolly's Yarn, I wanted to fill a blank page or two with endorsements, but I'm shy about asking for them. I did get amazing encouragement from many--even outside my family--who have volunteered (or been coerced) into reading it. There's still a day or two to add your viewpoint if you hurry. Just post a comment, or email me. I posted samples from my book in November and December.

    I didn't realize you were posting regularly again Anna. Shame on me for not checking! I'll be sure and check back more often now. I'm excited to hear about Lolly's Yarn. So how does one order a copy?

      Thanks, Monique. You've been one of my biggest fans. I hope I post more regularly. I'm hoping to post at least once a week, on Monday or Tuesday.

      You can order on Amazon, preferably through my website, but I suggest waiting until next week to be sure the latest corrections are there. As soon as I arrange more sales sites, I'll let you know.

    Wow!!!!! Sounds like the book is a smash hit!!! I'll have to buy a copy when I get some money.

    Thanks for posting on ANWA so I could take a look. I was so wrapped up in my son's wedding plans and Christmas that I didn't even see it.

      From the Pearl Harbor chapter I read, it was very interesting!!! If that is a sample of what is to come of the whole book, then I say it will be a great read!!! Well done!!!
