I have been amazed with the response from Living Springs Publishers. This is the second year that one of my stories has been selected for publication in their book. They were positive in working with me and helping with recommendations for editing the final story.
The Peavlers have made the Living Springs Press a pretty unique experience. I had the feeling the whole time that not only was my writing in good hands, but that I was in good hands too. I wasn’t corrected; I was mentored. When I was honored placement in Boomers ’23, I also was gifted the enjoyment of 17 other writers, all, with a new story, a new insight, a different eye, ear and voice and a bigger world. This was a workshop in learning one’s size in a very professional yet personal way. I thank you all.

What a pleasure to read through each of the well crafted stories in “Stories Through the Ages Baby Boomers Plus 2021”! All fifteen selected authors have something interesting to share, each quite different from the next, yet all highly relatable. I wondered if I related to the stories because I am a Boomer, but I gave a copy to my twenty-six year old nephew who found it “really cool.” High praise from him, and proof that these stories have something to offer everyone. Of course, I was especially pleased to have my own story included, and grateful for being selected.
I was extremely pleased to be included in the 2020 edition of Stories Through the Ages. The Peavler team was a pleasure to work with. They were prompt, courteous and professional.
