Warmest Holiday Wishes

December 11, 2016

 

Blessings From My Family To Yours

Let me take this opportunity to send my heartfelt thanks for your support and encouragement on this journey of mine, the one I never anticipated.

Your kindness and enthusiasm since the release of Far Outside the Ordinary has filled my heart with such gratitude. From comments on this blog, to texts, emails, phone calls and your outreach through social media. It humbles me more and more each day. Thank-you!

Far Outside the Ordinary continues to sell by the power of two. Two people tell two, who tell two, then two more. This momentum gives purpose to the long hours I spend writing, taking me away from friends and family. It also propels me to finish the sequel, a story that keeps me up at night. I am working tirelessly to complete it. And I realized I have each of you to thank for giving me this guided purpose. 

May your holiday season and coming year be ladened with love, happiness and good health.

Merriest of Cheer!

Prissy

      Thank you Patti…you were in my next book without saying that. LOL
      Hope you are feeling better now. We sure missed you at our ‘non’ book party. I taught them how to fold napkins into Christmas trees and they order Echo’s off Amazon.
      Non-literary night, to say the very least.
      Merry, merry. I’ll see you ‘before’ Christmas. XO

    Merry Christmas, Prissy! What a joy meeting you and your husband at our Women of Vision luncheon at Flagler College! You took the time to meet many of us one-on-one, winning us over with your upbeat warmth and openness. You have many fans here anxiously awaiting your “next chapter.”

      It was great meeting you, too. I loved every second of my visit to Flagler and have the fondest memories of my time spent there.
      How humbled I was to be surrounded by so many beautiful women inside the walls of that architectual masterpiece. Priceless treasure!
      Happy, happy holiday!

    Beautiful picture, and so representative of your precious family! From all the way down the street, 3920 BB says Merry Christmas. I am so sorry I missed the napkin folding adventure. There is always something cooking at your house, and it is spelled F-U-N! Much love to you, Dale, and your family,
