IS JESUS SERIOUS? A Garro Guide for Christians

    If, like me, you struggle with some of the behaviors Jesus asks of His followers and with St. Paul's telling us we are called to be saints, I write this 4th Volume in The Jesus Series, "Is Jesus Serious?" to speak to Christians' personal struggles to meet Jesus's and Paul's expectations.

DELICATE DAMES, by Barbara Grengs, author of the popular teen Toby Martin series.

Four filthy rich, entitled, spunky old broads livie in an upscale senior high rise in Mendota Heights, Minnesota where they fight their boredom by playing games, but their usual games of  canasta and poker have lost their allure. So what do the girls do to add excitement, adventure, fun and satisfaction? They invent “Pop Goes the Weasel,” a game where they plan to “pop” deserving old coots. What’s not to like about conspiring to commit murder?

Work began or continued on the following books this week:

Jack's News!

  by your Official Bookstore Cat,  

and Gossip Columnist.

HI Everyone, 

    Jack here, your favorite bookstore cat.  Haven't heard any news this week.

   Me and Spunky have just been laying around all week. She's been sleeping in the Rocking Chair by the living room window, I've been napping on the chair on the back porch.

   I DID see a black squirrel in the back yard. The walnuts are dropping so I've been watching the squirrels store them up for winter. I never saw a black one before. Very industrious he was. And FAST, TOO!

Meanwhile if any of you, my favorite authors, are going to conferences, holding book signings, or have any news or some good gossip for me. 

Just drop an e-mail to: arline@mail.com  

with

"News for Jack" 

 in the subject line, and
