Grow Old With Me

Novel # 1 in the Quilt Trail Series

A modern-day Beauty and the Beast meet in their fifties when a disfigured carpenter becomes a long-term guest at a bed and breakfast in the western-style tourist town of Love Valley, NC.

Benjamin Pruitt plans to repair the town’s buildings before retiring to a solitary life. Sarah Campbell longs for freedom since her long task as caregiver has ended.

Can Benjamin and Sarah piece the tattered remnants of their lives into a beautiful design to warm their waning years?

I am a North Carolina native transplanted to Tennessee. My contemporary Christian romances give readers a unique view of rural life in both states. Not afraid to tackle tough questions, I write about people who grow spiritually through the difficulties life tosses in their paths.

I am a pastor’s wife, mother of two, and grandmother of three. I’m a registered nurse and water aerobics instructor. I’ve written and published award-winning articles. Grow Old With Me is a 2011 Global eBook Award Finalist and an Amazon Best Seller.

Avid photographers, my husband and I enjoy traveling America’s back roads where rural culture and history are preserved through a unique art form—quilt barn squares. Each book in the Quilt Trail Series will deal with some aspect of quilting and its influence in the Appalachian region.

I love to hear from my readers. Contact me, sign up for a quarterly newsletter, order items from the store, and follow my blog by visiting www.melindaevaul.com

Paperback copies of Grow Old With Me are available on my website.

Proceeds from note cards, post cards, and prints contribute to the preservation of quilting and rural American culture. I also donate money from book sales to support various charities or quilting related projects.

Make it Happen by Lorii Myers BIOGRAPHY

Lorii_Myers — Tue, 22 Nov 2011 15:22:57 +0000

Biography

An empowered employee-turned-entrepreneur, Lorii Myers’s three decades of business experience include a wide variety of career challenges: business manager, controller, senior manager, and business owner.

Believing you should aspire to learn from those who inspire you, she was careful to choose her early employment opportunities well by working for entrepreneurial companies that were owned or managed by formidable entrepreneurs.

When asked what she learned, Myers is quick to answer, “The right attitude is everything!” and in her early thirties, she left the security of employment to fulfill her own sense of entrepreneurial flair.

Because of Myer’s personal quest to explore every opportunity, she brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to her second book in a series, 3 Off the Tee: Make it Happen, challenging readers to, “Come out to play, take on the world, and make success yours!”

Also author of 3 off the Tee: Targeting Success, Myers currently resides north of Toronto, Ontario.

: 3 Off the Tee: Make it Happen by Lorii Myers

Quotes

When healthy competition prevails — you come out to play and you play to win.

Awareness makes us emotionally brilliant.

Your desire to succeed must overpower your fear of failure.

No one can take the shot for you.

To gain self-respect, you need to put yourself first.

Upon achieving a lifelong dream, I thought, this is the way to live your life — in the moment, and to the fullest.

It’s sometomes easier to help others rather than helping yourself. The trick is to listen to your “self” as a friend. This may be the simplest change you ever make in life, with the biggest impact.

Remove the temptation to settle for anything short of what you deserve.

The decide word is so powerful. It’s amazing what you can do once you decide to do it.

The value of routine; trusting your swing.

Find your focus by seeking all that is good in your life.

Successful people consistently put their best “self” forward.

Kick the crutch out from under your excuses.

No one will ever blame you for trying to get it right.

Sometimes not getting what you want is a brilliant stroke of luck.

Once you figure out what you want in life — expect nothing less.

Needs cause motivation. Deep-rooted desires for esteem, affection, belonging, achievement, self-actualization, power, and control motivate us to push for what we want and need in our lives.

Extend your “best before” date by living a youthful life.

When the awareness of what is achievable brushes your life, your journey has begun.
