I had the pleasure of being featured in Sunday's Lifestyle section of The Villages Daily Sun. The column features me, and my newly released book.Fingers and toes crossed for success.

Congratulations, that's great! Is there any way to attach, link, or copy and paste the article here? The Daily Sun online gives us very little of the news they print in the online addition.

Default Daily Sun and Sandra Randell

Well, I'm not supposed to "self promote" on this site, but the link to the columns content can be found on either Facebook under the name The Worm Tickler, or Amazon.com. Sadly, I could not find the Daily Sun link online today. Thank you for your interest. Sandra Randell

Sandra,

That's wonderful! I'm heading on over to Amazon. Hope it's a huge success.

Default Thank you!

My little children's book has been a labor of love, which rather like "Topsy" just "grew and grew". The story line teaches in a humorous manner, how the life cycle works, using pet hens and tricky worms as part of the "plot". There is an animated clip on Amazon under the The Worm Tickler. Appreciate your kind comments and congrats. Sandra

Thank you'all for your kind comments and encouragement. I checked my book sales website this evening, and I've actually sold some books today! This is all so exciting, and a very new experience for me.
Imagine my surprise today, when our neighborhood golf group asked for my autograph on the hardback books I had with me. What an honor....

Sandra.

I hadn't had a chance to read the paper today but I certainly will now.

Good for you. Congratulations and best wishes. It is lovely to see a person who speaks "childrenese". It shows a lot of good stuff about you!

Sandra, I missed the paper today..but wanted to say congrats to you. It may have been in the paper, but I know you once mentioned at golf you would be having a book signing when the hard back came out, when is that going to be..would love to get a signed book for my grandkids.
