Why a Book Blog?

Because my publisher said so.

I've been blogging, Tweeting, FBing and MySpacing for years, but she told me to focus on my book's messages. While I'm getting this book born, I need to look down the road and consider its future.

Therefore, let's talk about Grandma. I spent some time with her today. I love to get her 98-year-old point of view on things, and learn tidbits of family history. After all, she has seen everything. She is an absolute treasure, not only in terms of history, but in familial history. She remembers her own grandparents, who pioneered this area, and has shared those stories with me since I was old enough to listen. She always impressed upon me the importance of personal background. Remember whom you are.
