#fridayfive 11.3.2023
Today’s Friday Five is all about my online Holiday Website and why you should take advantage of it this year.
- I’m offering the books way cheaper than the major online retailers. Who doesn’t want to save money during the holidays? LOL
- You’ll receive the books autographed. Can’t say that when you order from a commercial retailer.
- You have the opportunity to buy one of my handpainted book boxes with your book purchase.
- Shopping from the comfort of your home computer is very convenient.
- you’re supporting an indie author and a small business with your purchase.
Here’s the link to my store – one caveat – US continental orders only ( NO Hawaii or Canada). Shipping costs are ridiculous. In that instance, it is easier and cheaper to buy the books from a retailer.

Welcome to my Website gift store for 2023!
Just as I’ve done for several years, I am opening my own direct-to-you bookstore so you can purchase my books at a reduced price as gifts for yourself or for the romance reader on your holiday gift list.
Below, you’ll find a list of all the books available this year directly from me.
Each book is $13.00 for the print version and this year I’m offering something else if you plan on gifting the book to someone ( or just keeping it for yourself!!!)
Book Boxes.
I handpaint these boxes for my books to nestle in to keep them safe or to give them to someone as a present.
If you would like one for one of the books I’ve indicated, they are $2.50 each, additionally.
This is the form to order: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/17Ve1YnqXBl034ujM-Ygq7Af2-03AApZwABtGygzMBIE/edit

( I can’t ship oversees or to Canada because of prohibitive shipping costs.) But you can purchase the books at Amazon and major online dealers.
And to make it even easier, here’s the store’s QR code. Just point your camera at the screen and click on the link. You’ll be taken right to the order form!!! Easy Peasy. ( I try, lol)

7 months…
On TikTok the other day I saw a video and had to stop and watch it. After I did, I saved it because it spoke to me on so many levels.
The video was the 7 questions you should ask your mother before she…dies. I still have trouble saying, writing, and thinking that word in relation to my mother.
These are the questions:
- What is your happiest memory of us ( either you and your mother, or the family as a whole)?
- What is the nicest thing I have ever done for you?
- What is the one thing you always want me to remember after you are gone?
- What was the first year of motherhood like for you?
- What do you wish most for me?
- Is there anything in our family that is a secret?
- What are the best and worst things about getting older?
Here is the saddest part of this entire exercise: I only know the answer to one of these questions. And truthfully? I wish I didn’t.
I can certainly speculate on the rest of them, but I’ll never have a definitive answer, which, for the control freak in me, is just devastating.
7 months…feels like yesterday.
