There is so much going on its hard to know where to start.

Nationally:
Penguin Group is publishing my book and it will be out October 1, 2007. They decided to title the book "God Said Yes." Yes, I called my manuscript "Grace Through Life's Storms" but Penguin feels "God Said Yes" is it, so I trust them. I will be doing a National Media Release with talk shows, radio, magazines and newspaper with the PR people at Penguin as soon as the book is out. We will keep this site updated for all the appearances. I will be home for a short period of time and then will do a National Christian Release with Penguin for churches, Christian conferences, and anything in that area. I will be doing book signings on these release trips. Please pray that in the next several months that I can get well from the staph and pay for my meds to be well enough to "hit the ground running" this Fall.

I signed with Ambassador Speakers Agency — they are great! Wes started the Christian Speakers Bureau 20+ years ago. A few months back I went and met him and knew this was where God wanted me. They understand my desire to live and my joy to share my story. I am booking dates to speak all over to share my life story and soon to promote "God Said Yes." I feel so blessed that God has given me an agent, publisher and speakers bureau that all believe in this book and that my testimony will bless others.

Locally:
I am working with Melissa Swan at WHAS-11. She met with me for a couple of hours this week and will air my story the week of March 19, 2007. We will do another piece right before the book release in October. I am working with a reporter at the Courier Journal on a features story to come out right before the book as well. I have some contacts at some of the other television stations and hope that we will have some other stations to do stories in the near future. Any help in these areas would be great. I am willing to do all I can to raise money and get this book out.

*** PLEASE realize that I am open to any type of fundraising and speaking. I want to be well this Fall and I want to be able to speak, travel, and to do book signings. With this book opening WORLDWIDE, not just in the US, it's going to be a joy to do — a dream to do — but only if I am well enough to do it. I trust that Christ will bless me if that's His will. I just have to know I have done everything I can possibly do to raise this money and to be the true vessel for Christ that I desire to be. Thanks, and we will keep you updated. - Heather ***
