Meaningful Intent



Books are awake dreams that take us to far-away places.

Words and their narratives are the extensions of a writer’s vision, destined to be experienced by an eager audience. Embrace the wonder of the written words, cherish the mysteries they provide, and delight in endless tales of the unexpected.

      Be a gentle reader.

The pages of a book are the pavement your imagination walks upon; turn them with care so others may follow in your path.

Bewilderment surrounds each chapter read, and swelling enthusiasm ignites spirited anticipation of hopeful outcomes. Plots twist. Hero’s rise. Villain's fall. And love is lost and found.

If at story's end brings a tender tear or despair of the final outcome, rejoice and be content. Conclusion of the last word read should neither be happy nor sad, books blissfully consent that you read another.

Only when stars cease to shine and inflamed inspiration dims will books be silenced. Until such time, the written word will forever have meaningful intent.

On the journey taken, sometimes a memory is not enough, therefore a souvenir is a must – a book, written for all of us. 

Forever keep your books safe from harm.
