Locals, I just received ordered copies of Advent Adventure, my book showing celebrations of the four Sundays of advent, designed to use for Advent candle lighting, plus designs and scripture devotions of Old Testament Jesse Tree ornaments celebrating prophecy and New Testament Chrismon (Crismon) ornaments for church traditional symbols and Christ and church history.
Locals: these will be on sale for $5.00 (my cost as author) tomorrow at Glenbrooke Senior Center’s Clubhouse on Briar Creek Boulevard from 10:30-11:30 tomorrow, Monday. This is a book signing event for my senior writing class, You Are Unique. Their anthology, Remember The Time. . . ? ( $8.00) and some of my other thirty-three book titles will also be available for sale at author-copy prices of $3.00-$5.00 per copy. Of course, these are all available on Amazon at full price plus shipping at Betty Whitaker Jackson or on my website at www.bettyjackson.net. Date of the book signing is Monday, December 16 from 10:30-11:30 only. Hope to see you.

She especially sends kudos to the Space Coast Writers Guild members for their encouragement and advice. Her five books, It's a God Thing!, Job Loss: What's Next?

Their two grown children and daughter-in-love, all orchestra musicians, and our beautiful granddaughters Kaley and Emily live nearby. Hobbies, and probably future topics on her blog: gardening, symphonic music (especially supporting the Space Coast Symphony Orchestra as a volunteer and proud parent of a violinist, a cellist, and an oboist), singing, book clubs, and co-teaching a weekly small-group Bible study for seniors. She volunteers and substitute teaches at Covenant Christian School, and serves as a board member of the Best Yet Set senior group at church. Foundationally, she daily enjoys God's divine appointments called Godincidences, which show God's providence and loving kindness.
