New Amazon feature

Hi all! The book will have the "search inside" feature enabled at Amazon within the next few days. Visit there then, or go to the Contentment To Go website to read an excerpt of the book.

Book signings went well

Our book signings went well ... we even sold a few books! It was a neat experience and one I'll probably repeat in the near future. Anyway, another benefit of having the book signings was that I got to see Terry and Dawn and their kids Mathias and Rebekah all together for the first time in more than 12 years! That was a true blessing and one I'll remember fondly for the rest of my life. Of course, the visit--all too short in just three days--just reminded me of how much I miss my friends who now live in Germany. But I guess the whole thing was bittersweet for that reason. Anyway, it's the "sweet" part I'll remember most and cherish.

Book Signings

Terry and I will be at the Vineyard Church of Columbus tonight and tomorrow morning to do book signings. We will also be at the Barnes & Noble in Upper Arlington (on Tremont Road) on Monday, June 1 from 4--7 p.m. Hope you can attend!

Update

Was sick and couldn't attend the Ohioana Book Festival. Bummer. I was invited to apply for next year, though, and plan to do that.

On tap now are some more book-signing events: two at my church on the weekend on May 30-31 after each of the three services (6 p.m. on the 30th and 9 a.m. and 11:30 a.m. on the 31st) and one at a local Barnes & Noble store on June 1st from 4 to 7 p.m. Am looking forward to these for more than the obvious reasons: my co-author Terry and his family will be in town on those days, visiting from Germany! It will be the first time I've seen them all together since 1997! Will post on how the visit and the book signings go.

Ohioana Book Festival

Well, it's finally THE week. The Ohio Book Festival is this Saturday, May 9. This will be my first time doing something like this and I am admittedly a bit nervous about it. Please pray for me to do well and for the day to go fast (it's from 10 to 4:30). I'll let you know how it went.

Book Release

The book was released on Tuesday, April 14. I know I should have gotten it posted here, but just didn't for some reason. Anyway, it is now available to the public at http://www.contentmenttogo.com/buy.htm or at Amazon or Barnes & Noble. Just type in the name of the book:Contentment To Go and it should take you to the page where you can buy the book. Happy reading!
