Short Story Notes

It's an overcast and foggy day here on the
south shore of Nova Scotia. We've had
some drizzle and the occasional shower
as well. I've spent part of the day, editing
a collection of short stories.

Three of the stories don't seem to fit neatly
into the overall theme of the collection. But,
I've made the decision to keep them -- well,
at least for now. Two of them are quite silly,
really; but what's a writer supposed to do,
when faced with such silliness? I mean, the
stories were there, waiting to be put on
paper. You can't very well ignore them:)

The third story flows even further away from
the theme of the collection. It's actually a
re-write of a story that was published in 1904,
about a historical figure who had a secret
gold mine in the Kejimkujik area of Queens
County, Nova Scotia. I felt the urge to re-do
the story for the collection.

Oh yes, starting in early October, I'll be
working furiously on a new eBook. You can
read about it at the following link, which
also contains the link to download my Free
Report, Control Stress the Natural Way.

Well, must take a walk outside and experience
the fog.

All the best!

Free Report! Control Stress the Natural Way

Hi,

My FREE Report, "How to Control Stress the Natural Way: A 21
Day Program," is finally online and available for downloading!

It's been a struggle getting things set up properly. When you click
on the link, below, and land on the Wild World of Plants page,
you'll see the Free Report listed. When you click on it, your
Acrobat Reader should open in your browser, and the Report should
download.

After it's downloaded, simply look to the upper left side of your
Acrobat icons and you will see an icon that looks like a floopy
disk. Just click on that icon to save my Report on your computer.

I sincerely hope you enjoy the Report, and find it of some value.

The Way of the Crow

Hi,

Well, it's a cool night here in Nova Scotia.
The temperature's at 8 Celsuis, and will likely
go down another degree or two before morning.

In 1996, Nimbus Publishing in Halifax, published
my book, Black Spirit: The Way of the Crow.
It has since gone out of print, although I have a
number of copies. The last time I looked, Amazon
was selling some copies. However, I had to search
under "Lacy" rather than "Lacey," to find it.

I've decided to re-publish the work as an eBook.
However, I haven't decided whether I'll edit and
make changes to the manuscript, or stick with
the original manuscript, word for word. It's an
interesting and fun question to ponder -- either
way, I plan to create a new website strictly for
the book.

Crows are wonderful birds, and I look forward to
bringing my book to the web. I'll make further
announcements about the book on this blog.

All the best!
Laurie

Free Report to be Released Within Days!

Hi,

Just a brief post to say that my free nature-based report,
"How to Control Stress the Natural Way," will be available
in a matter of days.

I've had a fun time polishing off the report. It'll be in PDF
format. I first thought about giving it as a gift to people
who sign up for my newsletter. However, instead, I simply
give subscribe instructions in the report, itself. This way, I'll
likely get subscribers who are truly interested in the
newsletter.

Well, I must go now. I notice the sky has cleared here on
the south shore of Nova Scotia. It's 1:35 in the morning, and
the moon is bright. Think I'll go for a late night walk!

All the best,
Laurie
