Hi friends!

If you live anywhere near Springfield, MO, this is especially for you.

Next Thursday, June 25th at 6:30 p.m. at the Library Center, will be the only hometown event scheduled for this year. (I’ll be on Book Tour on the road most of the rest of the year!) I would love to see YOU there! I’ll share the backstory of how “Roadtrip with a Raindrop: 90 Days Along the Mississippi River” came to be, share the Multimedia Presentation that takes you on the journey – and I’ll be signing books. And, YES, if you have a book you would like signed, you are very welcome to bring it! A flyer with all the details is printed below!

EXCITING NEWS FROM SERENDIPITY!!

Hello, my Friends!

I’ve got some VERY exciting news to share!

I have signed a contract to cruise on the Mississippi River aboard the American Queen Steamboat!

If you aren’t familiar, it is a stunningly gorgeous ship – the largest steamboat in the world, with a capacity for 436 overnight passengers! I’ll be an onboard presenter – sharing the adventures of our little raindrop with river-loving guests from all over the world.

I’ll be traveling with her from July 23 – 29 on the gorgeous piece of river between Dubuque, Iowa and St. Paul, Minnesota, and again on the return trip, presenting the Multimedia Slide Show and signing copies of “Roadtrip with a Raindrop: 90 Days Along the Mississippi River.”

RIPPLES!

Serendipity, our little raindrop, is creating BIG ripples!

First, I’ve just been notified that Roadtrip with a Raindrop: 90 Days Along the Mississippi River is a FINALIST in the competition for Foreword Review’s INDIEFAB “Book of the Year” Award!

The winners of this prestigious award will be announced in June at the American Library Association’s Annual Conference to be held in San Francisco. Keep your fingers crossed, my friends…but, whatever happens, I am humbled and honored to have it included as a Finalist!

RECONNECTED!!

Whew! It’s SO good to have you back!

In the process of rolling the existing blog into the brand-new website gayleharper.com , there were a few technological hiccups! For a period of weeks, my ability to communicate with you through this blog wasn’t working! Then, there was that random re-send of an archived post from waaaayyyy back! Technology is SWEET when it works and hair-pullingly frustrating when it doesn’t!

AND the good news is, the issues seem to be resolved and I’m told we are solidly reconnected!

Happy Thanksgiving, my friends!

Wherever you are and however you spend this day, know that, at a level that may be beyond our human comprehension, every moment is absolute perfection – because nothing else is possible. There are no mistakes in the grand design of everything, whether the mind can understand that or not.

I could go on for pages listing all the things about this moment for which I am thankful – including the ability to send my love-filled wishes to you today. Suffice it to say that I am so filled with thankfulness that I am Gratitude itself.
