I had a very pleasant surprise this evening. I got a text from a very dedicated employee, Chris Chapman and his wife Jeni. Jeni is the daughter of Madeline’s brother David. Chris has worked for the company almost his entire adult life, just short of 20 years.

They had left a box by our back door here in Bertram. When I went out and retrieved and opened it, there were 5 copies of The Angora Chronicles, volume one. It has 67 stories, mostly some of the first stories I submitted.

It is so professionally done. When Chris heard about my stories (he isn’t a FaceBooker) he contacted his mother, Wanda Winters-Gutierrez, who has several of her own books published. She became a member of our group and started working to put this book together.

There will be a link that I’ll post soon on how to order it, if anyone wants one. We are establishing a price of $9.95 each for these little gems. After my wonderful visit to the Falls on the Colorado Museum today,

I am designating all the proceeds for now to the museum. Therefore more than 1/2 of the $9.95 will go helping make the museum even better.

I am truly overwhelmed by the thoughtfulness of Chris and Jeni along with the hard work of Wanda. My most heartfelt thanks to you each.
