Welcome to It's Monday! What Are You Reading? and Mailbox Monday.
It's Monday! What Are You Reading? is a place to meet up and share what you have been, are and about to be reading over the week. It's a great post to organize yourself. It's an opportunity to visit and comment, and er... add to that ever growing TBR pile! So welcome in everyone. This meme started with J Kaye's Blog and then was taken up by Sheila from Book Journey. Sheila then passed it on to Kathryn at the Book Date.
Welcome back to Monday! Here in the States it is Columbus Day and Indigenous Peoples' Day. As I am writing this, I don't have appointments scheduled, but that can swiftly change. This past week was filled with appointments, meetings, some great food, and attending a client's wedding. It is one of the many joys of my career that many clients become friends.

I also was thrilled to hear that Dr. Barbara Becker Holstein's latest book is now available on Amazon. For Seniors Only - Nostalgic Stories of Love, Family and Relationships is out in paperback. This is the first of three books that I formatted and edited for Barbara and her colleague Debbie Storz Higgins. If you check out the sample online, you will notice I am listed as a guest and contributed a few short stories.

Mailbox Monday is the gathering place for readers to share the books that came in their mailbox during the last week. Warning: Mailbox Monday can lead to envy, toppling TBR piles and humongous wish lists.
I bought a copy of this book from Amazon as part of Glenys Nellist's launch team. As a thank you, I received another copy of this book. I am giving both away at the Christmas Year Round blog.
Also in that delivery was a copy of this beautiful book.
On Saturday, this book by one of my favorite Christmas women's fiction writers arrived.
That's it for me this week. Hope you also had a nice week. Looking forward to visiting your blogs.
