I can’t believe it. The day is finally here. I am a published author!
I would like to thank all the people and say all the things, but for now, I will just jump up and down and cry some happy and some kind of scared tears.
I’m am so happy. This is something I felt like I should do for the last 30 years. I have a hard time getting things finished, so this really does feel like one of the biggest accomplishments of my life. This has been a labor of love for sure. There were so many times I wanted to give up, gave up, or thought it was just a dumb idea. But God wouldn’t leave me alone about it and put the right people in my path so that I was able to finally complete it.
It wouldn’t be here without my amazing Publisher, Chloe Simons, from E n’ S Publishing. She took a brave leap and followed a prompting that eventually (when I finally got brave enough to do this thing) led us to this place. She spent countless hours behind the scenes getting permissions for quotes from Salt Lake, working with editors and design and spent who knows how many grueling hours go over and over this manuscript of mine. She’s a hero. She was an instrument in God’s hands for sure. If you need a publisher, look her up. She is professional, patient, organized and so easy to work with. (enspublishing@gmail.com)
I’m scared. I feel like the little fawn that was born in my front yard last year – all wobbly-legged and scared. I hope people will be nice. I hope the message will outweigh my mistakes. I think it will. No, I know it will! The reading method I present is life changing and if you learn it and do it you feel the Savior and Heavenly Father’s influence powerfully in your life. I promise.
It’s with so much gratitude that I am sharing this with you. Thanks for listening to the podcast, believing in me, and helping me see that my voice and perspective are needed in this world. I love you!! Your love, messages and kindness have changed my life. It’s been so fun getting to know Jesus right alongside you. What a fun and rewarding journey it has been.
After you read it, (in one sitting, I’m sure, haha) please take the time to head back over to Amazon and leave a review. That is how this book will get pushed to the top so that others can find it. Let’s flood the whole dang world with the power and truthfulness of the Book of Mormon. Yay!! We are doing this! This is happening.
You can buy it in Kindle or Paperback format at the moment. There will be an Audible version in about three weeks.
Hi Melanie,
I am so so excited to read your book, I have been following you for years.
