I had an email waiting on me on Friday morning regarding website work. It was a good ole’ Jackson County resident who is a new author of a children’s book. She was referred by my good friend at the Jackson County Industrial Development Corporation. Still, I stopped doing that kind of work except for my favorite brother and friends a long time ago.
But something told me I should do it. Crazy, right? Typically, I would’ve said sorry but “no” in a reply email, but I did a little digging first and found…
The children’s book is about a dog. ARG!
On a tight deadline because she’s to appear on Channel 8, I told her I’d help her out… ONE PAGE and just a temporary fix to get through what Channel 8 requested. Then I find out the person that will be interviewing her is Patty Spitler — a close friend of Scott’s. So I figure I’m doing a good deed and it’s a small world.
Then I find out she’s the granddaughter of Dr. Joe & Caroline Butler! Say what you want, but Caroline Butler was one of the kindest, most authentic women I’ve ever known. She’s one of the 2 people that were so incredibly good to my Nanny (Bonnie Masters is the other). She visited the nursing home for Nanny’s birthday, baked 2 cakes to bring, and loaded up the youth group to sing ‘happy birthday.’
So maybe Caroline was telling me to do it?
Who knows… but buying a domain, putting it on my server, and creating one page was something I could do in a short amount of time that would help someone in a big way. I’ll share the site once it’s propagated and live — but in the meantime, you can click the photo below to order the book on Amazon.
Now you know: study found that chimpanzees consume the equivalent of about 2.5 alcoholic drinks per day by eating fermented fruit.
