What is this lovely book about?
Elaine loves to send and receive postcards. But nobody wants to do that anymore. Her friends have all gone digital. They’d rather text or email. So, Elaine decides to send postcards to herself. Empowering, outrageous, hysterically funny. What Elaine has to say on these postcards is not what you would expect!
Postcards to Herself is about a woman, her love of Holly, her Yorkshire Terrier, and a very fun and interesting life.
Elaine, in Laura’s story, found that she felt so alone. She solved the problem in more ways than one. How? You must read the book to find out.
Recently, a writing group I belong to started a postcard exchange. I have received the most fun and cute postcards with meaningful messages. I look forward to receiving postcards and am working on my packet to send out. What fun!
Back to Elaine and Holly and their adventures! You will learn a lot from these two. Check it out!
SHOUT OUT! to Laura Stamps, Pet Advocate
It’s not every day that I shout out someone’s birthday, but here we are. Laura Stamps, who I consider the ultimate pet advocate, and fun-loving poet and writer, has reached a new year! As some of you may know, she is a cat mom, specializing in helping rescue cats. She has a senior feline household and loves them up on the regular.
I also happen to know that she is a dog person, as well. And she celebrates this with her advocacy work.
I met Laura through her doggie books where she shares stories with prose poetry. If you want to find humor in your life, I highly recommend Laura’s books. Full disclosure: we have published three of Laura’s books but have read more. They are addictive. They are family friendly. They are educational and entertaining, all in one.
Here is Laura’s latest creation and you may want to grab a copy for your favorite person. Laura will even autograph a copy for you.
