Just Published—The Heritage Keeper

AlienFlower · Post by **AlienFlower** » Sat Mar 30, 2024 2:47 am

Hi all,

I've been working on stories/poems/books for children, with the conviction that skills developed trying to write poetry improve your instincts no matter which direction you take.

I brought out a self-published middle-grade (age 9-12) novel in 2016—fumbling, but nonetheless used in a couple of schools as novel unit for several years.

I've re-worked it and the 2nd edition has just been (self) published on Amazon as a paperback and e-book. The Heritage Keeper

Congratulations Jackie! My great-granddaughter's birthday is in Sept. and I will order it for her. She will be 9 but she is very advanced for her age

. I am always proud to be able to claim some connection to the talented people on this forum. I would love to get a signed copy but failing that an email from you to forward to her would be wonderful. She is of African descent on her mom's side. If you don't mind I'll be in touch later.

Jackie - I just now ordered your wonderful book "The Heritage Keeper." I can't wait to read it, and to then pass it on to some young friends and relatives. Congrats on this marvelous achievement.

Thanks Linda and Aj—I love that a book might be in the hands of a young reader. Linda, of course, I'd be glad to!
