One small corner of my basement

....you know what that is....IT'S CHRISTMAS. With a brief visit from Thanksgiving, of course. But it is late this year and after Thanksgiving we will have a short 26 days until Christmas. So, I'm thinking people are already starting their Holiday shopping. I know I have already started mine, even though my husband won't give me any kind of a list until just a week or so before Christmas. Which means, I have to fill it in with what I think he might want/need. On the other hand, I have given him a very detailed list of what I want this year. And when I say detailed, I put the actual URL on a list so all he has to do is click on it to find the majority of my Christmas wishes. 

And now to my point - I hope books are on your Christmas list. I have books for kids, for teens and for adults. From our BBD Publishing website, we even have Large Print Books to cover seniors or those who have vision problems. If you lived during the 1950s and 1960s, I'm sure you will recognize some of the stories I share in my memoir "Me and Them". A novel and a collection of stories can be found in "The Mart". A variety of stories based on the kinds of houses people live in will surprise and delight you in "Seven Storied Houses". "Deep Lake House" covers decades of guests who visited the special place for a week or two each year. For your pre-teen, "The House at the Top of the Trees." will keep them turning the pages. Also, book 2, The Castle at the Bottom of the Sea" is not far behind so stayed tuned. 

As always I appreciate your support. Not only is reading fun, it is the very best way to spend a snowy, winter afternoon. But of course, for me, it doesn't matter the season. It is my favorite way to spend any day, snow or not!
