So lovely!

I'm on a 2 week post graduate school cleansing trip that has turned into a mini "Eat, Pray, Love" of sorts. Your book has inspired me to do many things in my search for inner peace. Just thought I'd post a picture of where I am reading some of your book right this minute. 🙂
FIRST DAY OF SUMMMER…
Yesterday was the solstice, and today summer is here. My garden is at that sweet transitory moment between strawberries and blueberries. Everything is in bloom. Tomatoes are putting out their first blossoms, and the tiny tea roses are happily exploding pink petals everywhere. The beds of mint and wildflowers are full of baby praying mantises and giant bumble bees. Feet are bare, cats are lazy, days are long…with more and more and more such days ahead.
Make it a beautiful one, my friends.
Every summer has its spirit…what will this one bring for you?
Mine, I hope, will be restful.
And here's the poem of the day!
Love,
Liz
A LOVELY REVIEW…and local!
Dear Everyone —
As reviews are coming in for my new novel, "The Signature of All Things", I've been sharing them on this page. Here is a sweet one from my own hometown bookstore — The Book Garden — of Frenchtown, NJ:
"I was immediately drawn into the world of the Whittakers. My heart went out over and over again to Alma, Prudence and all the other women who were at once fortunate and limited simply by the place and time of their birth. This wonderful novel was as thought-provoking as it was entertaining. I will never again look at moss without stopping to really see it! I recommend The Signature of All Things to anyone who enjoys a great read."
Caroline Scutt, Caretaker, The Book Garden.
Thank you, Caroline!
And here is a link, in case anyone is interested in pre-ordering the book. Thanks, everyone!
