Summer Book Break
Just when I need a healthy index finger... it has become painfully apparent that -- what was merely a sprained finger 3 weeks ago -- has morphed into something more persistent. Add recurring bouts of tendinitis, from typing so hard... and you've got a recipe for vacation. I need one.
Anyway, I'm going to take some time off and read some books. Here's a list of recommendations I got from my friend Elton.
Mikhail Bulgakov Heart Of A Dog and The Master And Margarita
George Saunders Pastoralia
Nikolai Gogol Diary Of A Madman
Barry Hannah Airships
Gay Lutz Stories In The Worst Way
W.M. Spackman [anything]
Noy Holland [a collection]
Oh yeah, I got an email from Adam Mansbach and it sounds like he may accept my apology and agree to sit down for a conversation. Stay tuned.

My Mommy Wears Army Boot’s
By Verna Harps-Morrow
Published by Pagefree Publishing
I am Verna Harps-Morrow, the author of “My Mommy Wears Army Boots ”
This is a children’s book that helps military mothers explain to their children the necessity of military duty and sacrifice.
The book addresses, in particular, the unfortunate separation of mother and child due to military service.
It places this scenario in a more ‘positive light’, by building pride and patriotic barriers to anger, sadness and resentment. These are emotions that may be felt by military children when their mothers leave to serve or go to war.
Based on a 10 year separation, which I experienced, with my own children, culminating with a joyous reunion with them, “my mommy wears army boots ” brings understanding to military children of their own sacrifice in allowing their mothers to serve their country while not finding fault with them for doing so. It also illustrates that their mothers can return to them unharmed.
This book teaches them that favor should be found with their mothers’ noble act of sacrifice. They are seen as heroines and protectors of themselves, their siblings, families and the entire country. This is something that should make them proud.
Finally, the book advocates military service as an admirable and honorable vocation. It presents military duty as a viable option for a career as an adult. The book will make a excellent gift. Please give me the address for the book buyer in your organization, the book is a coloring book as well. I would love to communicate with you and ask questions if you have the time . This is for all of the women who are laying down their life for us during the time of war. I would like to know the rate's to advertise my book please send me the informatiom. Thanks
I look forward to hearing from you
Best Regards,
