My
late father came out with some priceless words of wisdom. One of the best bits
of advice he gave me was, ‘If you come to a crossroads and don’t know whether
to turn right or left, it’s better to keep straight on.’ And, if you think
about it, that bit of advice can apply to life as well as at a crossroads.
He
also reckoned that time passed much quicker the older one gets. I’ve found this
to be so true. For instance, it was with a sense of disbelief that I realised
it’s been three months since I last blogged. So much for my New Year’s
resolution that I would post a blog at least once a month!
I’m
temporarily departing from my reminiscences about the past to tell you about my
new book Entertaining Angels.
We can experience them in
A random act of kindness
A helping hand
A nudge in a different
direction
A stranger crossing our
path
Or
There might just be a real
angel in there somewhere.
These are stories about everyday angels. The title Entertaining Angels comes from a verse
in the Bible which says:
Do not
forget to entertain strangers for by doing so people have entertained angels
without knowing it.’
(Hebrews 13:2)
It’s
reasonably priced at 99p on the Amazon UK site at www.tinyurl.com/ybzp73g3. Prices vary on other
Amazon sites.
I’m
very conscious that I have readers waiting for the final book in my Roberts
family trilogy but progress has been very slow owing to various health
problems, most associated with getting older, and now some major work on our
home, so decided to publish this collection of short stories in the meantime.
The first draft and an initial edit to book three, tentatively called In the Thick of It, have been done and
I’m hoping to get on with more editing/rewriting this summer. Until then, I
hope you enjoy my light-hearted angel-themed short stories.
