Wandering

...a long way past the past

It was the late 1970s … a time when mobiles, the internet, and more modern modes of touring were non-existent. It was a time when best-selling author Sharon Kreider embarked on her three-year solo adventure from her remote hometown in Canada to Asia.

Through her eyes, her experiences, and her delicious words, you will discover:

  • Majestic Nepal before the rest of the world did.
  • The colors of India and rivers of love that flow through it.
  • Goa and the most beautiful beach in the world.
  • How the Middle East evoked questions: What am I doing? Where am I going? Who am I?

Sylvie is a poignant women’s fiction novel examining a family’s love for one another, acceptance, and letting go. Set in the Colorado mountains, it reveals the secrets and lies surrounding what appears to be a perfect family. Exploring the delicate threads binding family together, we learn how an unexpected tragedy can unravel everything and how they find hope, inspiration, and forgiveness to continue.

An important and sadly relevant story about a loving family forced to accept and forgive the results of a young girl’s repeated social rejection, Sylvie is a must-read for grief groups, parents, and educators; providing useful, understandable insight for parents and siblings of family members suffering consequences of coping with unexpressed trauma.

The Worst Christmas Ever

This time of year, a common practice is gifting, giving something to someone without expecting anything in return. It can be a watercolor drawing of the sunset, a crocheted blanket, a handwritten poem, fixing up the garage, or shoveling snow off a roof. One can also buy just the right gift for their loved ones, from a bicycle for a

A Very Cold Day

The coldest temperature ever recorded near where I was born and raised was -73° Fahrenheit in 1935. In those temperatures, frostbite can happen in minutes on any exposed skin. Blood pressure lowers, breathing becomes shallow, and there can be a slight thickening of the blood, which can cause chest pain in some. I’ve not experienced that extreme cold, but I came
