An Angel on My Shoulder

By Lori Szepelak

Author Lori Szepelak had always believed in the afterlife and in angels. But where was the proof? Shortly after her mother’s death, it appeared unexpectedly, in a photograph she had taken while walking in the woods. There, in one photo, was an aura - and in it, the image of her mother smiling. Other photographs revealed auras too, the proof, she believes, of the presence of guardian angels guiding and protecting us. Tell your story to others, was the clear message she was given, and share your photographs as well. An Angel on My Shoulder is her response, her gift to the angels who inspired her and compelled the writing of this book.

As I sat at my desk on Dec. 12 and started writing a press release - I put a simple headline in bold at the top: "Southampton woman self publishes book on
