Dear Passions in Poetry Friends~

I am so proud today..proud and excited, to have been given the honor
not only of walking in friendship, beside our own Marge Tindal
while she devoted much time, love, and talent
into articulately compiling many of her beloved
Native American Indian poems into book format...

But, Marge has so graciously bestowed upon me, the privilege
of joyously announcing to fellow Passions members
the birth of her first publication ~


"Out of the Whispering Winds"



~Front cover art "Folding Words" by Sandra de Nijs~

.

Those who have followed Marge's Native American writings,
many of which are posted here at Passions,
know they are filled with the history of the Cherokee
and their trials on the Trail of Tears.
You also know they are told with warmth and love by Marge,
through the spirit of SkyeLara.

Please join me in wishing Marge all the best
with her most recent and beautiful artistic endeavor.

.
Congratulations and good luck dear friend and Passions member!


*~Marge will be in here later to give you the details on future purchases.
I know many of you will want to have a copy on your own bookshelf.~*

I knew it was only a matter of time before our illustrious Willow White Feather would have her native poems in print!

Nancy, you presented this wonderful announcement in such a lovely manner!

Marge, I will be ordering your book as soon as I learn how!

Big, congratulatory HUG,

Nance~
Thank you from the heart of my little bottom for holding my hand through these last few months ...
there were times that I wasn't sure about anything ... but you were always there for me to 'bounce' it off of~

I don't know what else to say .. but you know my heart on this anyhow ...
so take an extra *Huglet* or two~

Friends ... the dream came true ... it really did~

You can find one place to order the book online here -
http://www.publishamerica.com/shopping/shopdisplayproducts.asp?catalogid=18041

and another here -
http://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbninquiry.asp?r=1&ean=9781424163908&itm=1&z=y

There will be many others as time marches on and I will come back in and advise you of those places also~

Please know that for the initial orders it 'may' take up to three or four weeks for you to receive your book (as the books are right now at the printing press getting readied for distribution world-wide)~

I am published by    and in a couple of weeks will be in book stores everywhere.

They've done a marvelous job on the Press Releases and I'm busy booking engagements for intereviews, book signings and reading engagements~

I'm not going to be handling the sales of my own books at this time, as I am devoting so much time to scheduling events to promote the sales and there's only so little me to go around~

I am truly blessed with wonderful friends, who have held my hand during my life ...
may each of you know that I humbly offer my words for the world to read and for my family to hold onto foreverly~

Thank you all ... thank you all ...~

Ron, you innoculated me with print fever when Voices On the Web came to be~

I hope to be an honorable voice of poetry for the all of time~

It is a positively WONDERFUL day to be a poetess~

Well, Margie Girl, I have just ordered my copy through Barnes & Noble and I am eagerly awaiting its arrival!

I checked out the link that the deVine poet gave you. I do believe that that woman could be of great help in promoting your book! I'm keeping my "wings" crossed for you!

I am thrilled for you! Enjoy this new leg in your life's journey! You most definitely have earned your stripes! We are all so proud of you!

Love & Native Spirit Light,

Linda
P.S. That is the PERFECT cover!!!

Friends ... I wanted to take a moment to tell you all how the beautiful cover for this book came to be -

The cover was 'fated' ... I had found an artist's name on a newsletter I get from Artist Registry ... followed the link .. found the 'Folding Words' painting ... wrote a little poem it inspired and sent it to Sandra de Nijs asking permission to use it at PiP~
She thought that would be just fine~

When the book came about ... I wrote and asked if I could possibly use the painting.

She said yes ... and when I found out that she lives in the Orlando area, I asked her to join my chapter of The Florida Committee of The Museum of Women in the Arts ... turns out she already was a member ... but hadn't found the time to attend our monthly luncheons in quite awhile, which are held here in DeLand ... WELL ... she came this month and we met ... she is as thrilled as I am about the publication~

If you want to see more of Sandra's art, please go here -
http://www.artesandra.com/
Dang, she's GOOD !!

What blessings the Internet brings !

*HUGLETS* to All of you~

Dear Marge,
   I am so very happy for you! This was meant to be and is very much a welcome treasure to look forward to.I saw that this will be available nationally? You better believe that I will be at Borders and Barnes & Nobles looking for "Out Of The Whispering Winds".
   I'm not sure if I had told you,but the last two years I have become a part of two separate groups (both totally unaware of each other)here in PA that are comprised of either native Americans or those who have a tremendous love for native American people and lore.I am most certain that your book will be of great interest to many new friends of mine.
   Question: Upon my purchasing your book, would you do me the great honor of autographing it for me? I would need a mailing address to send it to you.Meanwhile, please accept my heartfelt...

Congratulations!

I am so pleased to know that you have compiled your marvelous collection of native American poetry for the owrld to read. You know how I have been hoping this would come about for a long time. Some of those poems are truly memorable in content as well as in execution and deserve a wider audience. I believe the nature of your poems will atract many readers and then the beauty of your poetry will become known. I wish you much success with this endeavor. I'm so proud of you and proud to call you my friend. Wish I could see you again. Didn't we have fun?

OMG !

To hold this book in my hands this day is all-encompassing ... overwhelmingly thrilled is this lady !!

It's a beauty ... it really is a beauty !

Nance ... thank you for being there ... for calling ... for being just exactly who you are ... true to the core of friendship~
I love you lady~

I know well the feeling Marge.  And it is something that is akin to a birth.  You did well.  The midwives are happy.  

Now, go out and share it!  

And I will be sending you something.

Hugs

What a spectacular presentation of this wonderful realization of Marge's dream. The title is totally after my heart and so is the picture chosen for the cover. Great choice!

CONGRATULATIONS dear Poet! I will be happy to have a copy of your book to cherish. Will visit amazon.com right now.

You have heard the whispers of the winds ... but it was written in the stars from the very beginning that you would please the world with your writings.

Wonderful!

Love and big hugs.... and joyous jumping TOGETHER.

Hi Friends~
Just a quick little update on a thing or two about the book~

I've been a little under the weather with a bout of pneumonia ... so my interviews and book signings had to be put off until I've recovered completely~

I'm slowly on the mend ... so busy rescheduling those events~
With April being National Poetry Month, I've got oodles of events to cover~
I feel so blessed~

The warm response to my book has been overwhelming ... and I'm just so proud to be a poet ...~

Thank you all sooooooooooooooo much for the support~
Bless each and every one of you~

*Huglets*

Dear Marge,
your book has landed in Rome and is now in my hands! It is truly beautiful and I have just read a few poems to immerse myself into the atmosphere and I am thoroughly captivated!

Hope you are perfectly well again, dear Marge, to go on signing your book on many occasions. It deserves to be read by the world!

Congratulations again!

Hugs from happy

Tina~
Thank you hon~

Ivor~
Please let me know when it arrives and thank you sooooo much~

I have a wonderful book signing event scheduled for May 19, at the Cassadaga Spiritualist Camp Bookstore~

There will be four or five of us authors in attendance ... we will each be given an opportunity to do a presentation (I'll read a couple of my poems) then meet with those who wish to purchase the books~

As a teenager, I lived close to the Cassadaga Spiritual Camp, so it will be a sort of 'going home' for me~

On the same day they are having a Gala Day event with vendors offering arts and crafts, so my Bill and my friend, Michele, will be setting up a booth to showcase their beautiful art pieces ... Bill will feature his gorgeous wood carvings and Michele will be showing her unique fused glass art work and jewelry~

After the book signing event, I will join them for more book sales~

It sure is a great time to be a published poet~

Thank you ALL for your love and support in this long-awaited dream come true~
