Hey ladies,


WHOOHOO!!!! My book is live as of today!  It still has the temporary cover on it when you see it on the bookstore page, but it will be converted shortly to the design I purchased. If you are still interested in purchasing a copy, go to www.wordclay.com then go to the bookstore tab, then click on autobiography, then go to page #6 and scroll down until you see ,"Looking Up When Your Circumstances Have You Down." The book will have the final cover on it, (in the bookstore) according to the publisher, within a week, but when you purchase the book, the printer will place the final cover on it as it is ordered. I couldn't wait, I had to request a copy NOW!!! As you can see, I am excited!! Gosh, I hope everything is ok. Maybe I shouldn't tell you all about it until I see it. LOL. Too late now. Nanikj     AKA                                                  KJ Jacobs    WOW that looks good!

Thanks for the wonderful comments, Ladies. Yes, I will autograph it, if I come to your area. Hopefully, I will get the chance to have book signings. This is all new to me, but I am willing and ready to do it! Nanikj  AKA Karen or KJ

If you go to the group, "Tell Your Story," you will find a synopsis of my book. I've written it so many times, and there is enough information there to give you a good understanding. I think the post in the group would be sufficient. But thanks for asking.

Sorry I haven't looked in on the Forum lately. Thanks everyone, I do hope it will be an encouragement to those who read it. As well as giving honor and glory to Jesus who is my strength every miniute of every day. I will be gone out of town tomorrow, then will come back in the evening only to leave and go to a conference for 3 days. So I won't be able to respond until I get back. Don't ya'll do anything till I return! LOL I will ask for prayer for safe travel. I will be driving 3 hours away and will be staying by myself and coming back on Thursday evening. I can't afford to have any of those insulin reactions while I am away. There I go again, Jesus will be with me! He hasn't let anything hurt me yet, and I will continue to trust Him! See ya'll when I return. Love Ya, Karen or Nanikj or KJ whatever you want to call me. LOL

YEA!! My copies of my book that I ordered came while I was away. It is a quick read only about 144 pages, but all in all I think it is good considering it is my first one. It is meant to encourage people who have chronic illnesses, women who are in or have been in troubled marriages, and how God works through the events in my life to show me that He is always there. I couldn't put a lot of the specifics about my second marriage in there due to liability issues, so if he ever dies, I will do a re-write! LOL


Even though I made many mistakes in my life, God still held me in the palm of His hand and led me back to Him. It is also a story of how my faith has grown through the years, and that things aren't always what they appear to be. God is always in control, even when we disagree.


My experience with this publishing company has been an eye opener as well. I had to e-mail them to change the format on 2 pages. Of course, I will have to pay for it, because it's a self publishing company. It doesn't matter who was responsible for the error, I can't prove it. It's not that noticable, but I'm sure that experienced authors will notice.  Oh well, I learn something new everyday! That's a good thing, right!


Thanks for all of your encouraging words!

Hello Antoinnette,


I wish I knew how it was going. I'm really frustrated with my publisher. There is a back office for every author and on that back office, I am supposed to be able to click on a tab to see the sales and royalities, but not so. I have asked repeatedly for them to get it fixed and all I get is, " I T is working on it." If I was the owner of that publishing company, I would have replaced my IT people. It shouldn't be THAT hard to put a "counter" in there, so that each time a book is ordered, it would be counted.


The first quarter royalty check will be issued in the middle of November.  So I have to be content until then. I have watched the sales rank go up and down on Amazon.com and Barnes & Noble.com, so I know that books are being sold. If anyone on WomenCo. has read the book, I would love to hear your review.


Blessings,


K J
