    About this ebook

    If you like to read, or simply enjoy good stories, can you remember how or when you started on your reading journey? Did someone inspire you to become an avid reader? A grandparent, maybe? Or, perhaps, a neighbor, aunt/uncle, older sibling? Most of us can put a face on that question - and truly be thankful they were there. Here is my story, from the bottom of my heart.

    Sandi Caldwell

    I am over the age of 21 ( times 3-plus ), happily married, have 2 children and 2 grandchildren, and 1 very spoiled cat. I have been writing 'books' of various lengths since about 3rd grade, but shared them only with close friends and family. Now, finally, I've gathered enough courage and confidence to share my writings with the world, whether they want them or not. Either way, it will make me happy to know I made someone smile, or think, or read a book.

      FOMO, But For Books

      Jul 30, 2021

      My FOMO is particularly acute in the summer. When I go on vacation, I always take too many books with me. The haphazard reading of my childhood summers is gone, and sometimes I think I’m chasing it, when I pack too many books. The post FOMO, but for

      The Joys Of Reading With A Second Grader

      Nov 18, 2019

      Books Out of Place

      Oct 31, 2017

      I take it upon myself to pluck used books off a stranger’s stoop or from a trash can lid. This is how they sneak into my life, crawling with traces of the people who held them in the past, who touched them, who were touched by them. Strangers, like g
