Hopefully that will be sooner rather than later. In the meantime, my grandkids came up with the idea to create “Story Time With Grandma Diane”. Every day (M-F) on my Facebook page at 11:00 a.m., I read a favorite children’s book. Homeschoolers can now listen in giving their caregivers a little time for a cup of coffee or a little breather. We started doing this on Monday, March 23 and will continue until the kids are back in school. Tomorrow I’ll be reading my own Life in the Neck New Friends as a special request of my great-niece Lily Lindemann in Oshkosh. Tune in and enjoy the story along with the rest of us. If you have your own copy, you can follow along as we read. Hope you listen in. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db92d57d2e92960a6d8d64f/1584989547173-CD877YZLRUG80LEUOTHB/freshh-connection-M4lve6jR26E-unsplash.jpg Life - Gratitude Defined: Gratitude is thankful appreciation for favors received. Webster’s Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos into order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home. a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow. Melody Beattie In this time of great fear and difficulty with the COVID-19 virus hanging over our heads, with schools closed, social distancing, and many many of us working from home experiencing being quarantined for perhaps the first time in our lives, we as a nation and as communities would do well to think about what we do have instead of what we do not have. For most of us, our daily needs at this point are being met. We have homes, food on the table, and clothes to wear. Most of us can walk and talk, see the beauty that surrounds us, listen to music that stirs our souls and makes our feet want to boogie. We have family and friends to love and be loved by in return. Focusing on our abundance rather than the lack in our lives helps us experience the sense of fulfillment which is gratitude at work. This fulfillment creates in us the desire to share what we have with others. What better time than now for us to reach out in love and thanksgiving to the community in which we live? What can YOU do to bring some happiness and joy into the lives of those around you? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db92d57d2e92960a6d8d64f/1584629361784-BXANNX8KAYH3ZA4MO5US/thumbnail-1.jpg Life - No App to Replace Your Lap Just thinking . . . Covid-19 has forced us to stay home and spend more time together as a family. Schools are closed, parents are working from home, sports have been canceled (professional as well as school and community programs). So what’s a person to do? Social media is full of advice for and from all of us. As I’m thinking about all of this, what comes to mind is that list of things I wanted to do when I retired. Read, write children’s books, clean the pantry, and the list goes on! Now having two grandchildren home from school everyday for the unforeseeable future, my thinking has turned to them and to how can I help the “boredom” that they seem to be complaining about so much as time passes. I trust that if I put my mind to it, I can come up with a plan that may turn this time together into an opportunity to grow in learning, understanding and love. Children need and want structure. It helps them feel safe and in control - they know what to do and when to do it - even though they will argue about it. So to provide structure we need to first talk about the “have to dos” and the “want to dos” and then make room for both in our daily schedule. So that’s my job for today - working together to make our daily schedule. This could be exciting. I’ll let you know what happens . . .

Who Knew? Right? Our party on March 21st has been canceled. It has been fun in the planning – going through old pictures and old memories – putting together a slide show for your viewing enjoyment – never to be seen. Oh well !?!?!? So instead of celebrating with all you on Saturday as planned, we will be sitting home on the couch watching nothing on TV and eating macaroni and cheese. Send happy celebratory thoughts our way and envision the fun we could be having together. https://dianedavies.com/life/help-a-writer-out monthly 0.5 2021-03-15 https://dianedavies.com/life/meet-nancy-and-gordon-fredrickson monthly 0.5 2021-03-15 https://dianedavies.com/life/meet-lisa-gammon-olson monthly 0.5 2021-03-14 https://dianedavies.com/life/meet-mary-bleckwehl monthly 0.5 2021-03-14 https://dianedavies.com/life/meet-shannon-anderson monthly 0.5 2021-03-14 https://dianedavies.com/life/introducing-2nd-tuesday monthly 0.5 2021-03-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db92d57d2e92960a6d8d64f/1615764930766-DVCXAIXG85NKCQ60YEP0/Diane+Monthly.jpg Life -

Neander is a young caveboy. He spends his days doodling on cave walls, chasing mammoth butterflies, and playing with his pet rock, Rock. But one day, he meets Neanne—and he’s CRUSHED! She’s short, she’s hairy, she’s perfect! Neander does everything he can think of to get Neanne’s attention. He picks a bouquet for her from the Field of the Bees. He fetches a conch shell for her from the Waves of Salt. As Neander’s gestures get grander and grander, Neanne remains unimpressed. But then Neander hatches the grandest gesture of all, and it’s Neanne’s turn to do some crushing. From Beth Ferry and Joseph Kuefler comes this sweet celebration of first love—perfect for Valentine’s Day and read-alouds all year long. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db92d57d2e92960a6d8d64f/1580952498038-UYMCWRKV97KQGFJXA6Z4/Image+2-5-20+at+6.41+PM.jpg Life - No App to Replace Your Lap - You Are My Happy by Hoda Kotb Illustrated by Suzie Mason https://dianedavies.com/life/no-app-to-replace-your-lap-2 monthly 0.5 2020-02-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db92d57d2e92960a6d8d64f/1580849254253-1DMR5BS61HNKX7MVZK9X/ben-mullins-5QTQz-oYk1A-unsplash.jpg Life - No App to Replace Your Lap https://dianedavies.com/life/no-app-to-replace-your-lap-1 monthly 0.5 2020-01-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db92d57d2e92960a6d8d64f/1580327090142-4H4OF0IYY3MAL9HXTIMM/Image+1-29-20+at+1.28+PM.jpg Life - No App to Replace Your Lap https://dianedavies.com/life/meet-ca-nobens-illustrator monthly 0.5 2020-01-29 https://dianedavies.com/life/no-app-to-replace-your-lap monthly 0.5 2020-01-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db92d57d2e92960a6d8d64f/1580321722417-S3LFXO990X51LB5KYHJM/yoab-anderson-IHC5LPAoGrs-unsplash.jpg Life - No App to Replace Your Lap https://dianedavies.com/life/blog-7-no-app-to-replace-your-lap monthly 0.5 2020-01-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db92d57d2e92960a6d8d64f/1580159663714-AGX472274SO4SUDOR445/Image+1-27-20+at+2.26+PM.jpg Life - Blog #7 No App to Replace Your Lap Family Reading Time - can be as little as 15 minutes a day! https://dianedavies.com/life/something-to-ponder- monthly 0.5 2019-12-29 https://dianedavies.com/life/life-in-the-neck-christmas-1 monthly 0.5 2019-12-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db92d57d2e92960a6d8d64f/1577555822178-X3FY70T3KLDRTBDORAOM/thumbnail.jpg Life - Life in the Neck Christmas Merry Christmas to one and all!

1996, a good friend of mine told me that I should not retire. She said that I had a lot to give and to do yet. She wondered how I could even think about not teaching any longer. About that same time the philosophy statement above began to develop and hold truth for me. I had no intention of quitting. I just wanted and needed to find a new way of learning, growing and doing. 1996 brought many changes to my life; my only child left for college, my Mom passed away, and I no longer had my first grade classroom. I began working for the University of Wisconsin – River Falls as a student teacher coordinator. I was the liaison between the college and the student’s student teaching placement. I critiqued lessons that the student’s taught, and generally help them grow into their teaching careers by offering suggestions, ideas and support. Their enthusiasm and fresh new ideas were intriguing and refreshing to me. The job also allowed me to visit different districts, schools and classrooms which I really enjoyed. In 2004 my life was turned upside down and inside out when I was diagnosed with breast cancer. My supervisor at UW-RF finished the semester with my ten students and I checked into the hospital for a double mastectomy and a year full of doctor appointments, hospital stays, and learning to live my life with my new normal of being a cancer survivor. My writing career then began in earnest as I journaled my way through my 302 days of a breast cancer journey chronicled in From There to Here; A Breast Cancer Journey, my first published book. That began my long history of activism as a survivor-advocate for breast cancer patients. In addition to my work as co-leader of the Hastings Breast Cancer Support Group and co-creator of the Voices of Hope DVD, my extensive experience as a volunteer for American Cancer Society’s Reach to Recovery program put me in direct contact, as a home visitor, with breast cancer patients in the first days after diagnosis. I was once again teaching but this time my students were women fighting for their lives. I was learning, growing, doing and experiencing inner peace and gratification as I reached out to help make a difference. After twelve years of my own survivorship, I published Breast Cancer Saved My Life, my second book looking back on the life lessons I had learned through my own journey with the enhanced awareness only time can provide. As an elementary teacher for twenty-six years, I read thousands of books to hundreds of students and now as a grandmother I’ve read hundreds of books to two children. I’ve always wanted to read my own stories to children so in 2018 I published my first children’s book entitled; Life in the Neck New Friends. It is such a joy to watch the faces light up and to hear the oh’s and awes as my listeners get into the story. New Friends has been recognized by Mom’s Choice Awards at the Gold Level and Eric Hoffer Book Awards as Winner of the Children’s Category in 2019, a little extra bonus for my work. In January of 2019, I combined my teacher training/experience, cancer survivorship, and award winning writing know-how to give me the expertise to publish Jeannie Ann’s Grandma Has Breast Cancer. Jeannie Ann’s story is intended as a tool to help new breast cancer patients gain confidence in talking with their children regarding their cancer diagnosis. The book is written in the voice of a six year old making it understandable and helpful. Mom’s Choice Awards recognized Jeannie Ann’s story at the Gold Level as well. Life in the Neck Squirrel Trouble was released in November of 2019 which shares the story of Eli, his log fort, and the squirrels that move in and take over. So what’s next? Well, I’m not sure. Lots of animals are lining up for spots in the Life in the Neck Series. The eagle, Canada goose, and even the little chipmunks living in our rock walls want a chance at stardom. Margarita Sikorskaia, the Life in the Neck illustrator, is asking what’s next and when as well. I need to continue to sell books to build up my cash reserves to be able to publish another book. Perhaps my dream of signing with a big time publishing house will come true putting me back on track with the series. Only time will tell.

The address below is a good article explaining the book print lingo of a signature. https://www.formaxprinting.com/blog/2018/01/book-printing-lingo-what-is-a-signature The pages of a book are printed on large sheets of paper and are known as a signature. The use of Signatures speeds up the printing process, simplifies the binding operation, and reduces the amount of paper waste. All signatures contain page counts in groups of four. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db92d57d2e92960a6d8d64f/c8cc53bd-a76f-46d8-be37-ae8bcf3993cc/B33F9D1E-759F-4A86-876E-AA8285457520_4_5005_c.jpeg Blog https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db92d57d2e92960a6d8d64f/b31d3069-49d6-4f8e-8c13-fea035301f0d/Example-of-a-16-Page-Signature-1.png Blog https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db92d57d2e92960a6d8d64f/0eaee5d1-23f8-439a-9ee6-2d615ba11086/1E1F3C93-E462-44D8-92BE-CD0EEB6DFBBF.jpeg Blog - Make it stand out Cover and signatures for Life in the Neck Advent of Christmas https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db92d57d2e92960a6d8d64f/1d6ad293-faeb-493c-838e-0d5eabccda60/6A71F971-1037-48AC-B2D7-010840098B6A.jpg Blog - Through much dialog, we mutually decided that this idea would take away the simplicity of the story and would perhaps be confusing to our young readers.

Welcome to a new adventure in the Neck, a beautiful place where animals and humans live together in harmony--most of the time. In this book, a young boy named Eli builds a log fort with his dad, but it's not long before mischievous squirrels Chatter, Whistle, and Squeak move in and take over. As the nuts, acorns, and pinecones pile up inside, Eli realizes he's going to have to get creative to get them out. Will his plan work, or will the squirrels win? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db92d57d2e92960a6d8d64f/1574622724591-4FNSAL083ISTO51NAIOY/9781643439648itascabooks.jpg Home - Author - The US Review Gives High Praise for Life in the Neck Squirrel Trouble Life in the Neck: Squirrel Trouble by Diane Davies Beaver’s Pond Press book review by Olivia Farr "They only weigh ounces, but have a lot of energy and like to be busy and bossy." Eli worked hard to build a fort with his dad during the summer. The animals of the Neck noticed this impressive fort, and soon some pesky red squirrels had moved in. The red squirrels found the fort to be rather cozy and began to build up their stash for winter. When Eli finds himself repeatedly cleaning up the mess from their stash, he asks his dad for advice. Together, they check online and find a set of steps to follow. Eli follows the steps carefully, trapping the red squirrels and taking them away from the fort to set them free. However, the red squirrels are just as determined as Eli, and they repeat these steps until Eli adds one of his own, learning to live with the squirrels. Told in short chapters, this book is ideal for young readers of chapter books who will admire the full-page illustrations while reading the short paragraphs featured on each page spread. The story is highly relatable, as children will often encounter challenging problems they will need to solve, even if their problems are not as persistent as red squirrels. This book illustrates the steps for handling problems, including doing research and following steps to attempt to solve them. Davies even goes a step further to demonstrate that not all problems can be solved; sometimes people may have to make the best out of the situation in which they find themselves. With rural charm, adorable animals, and a storyline that is both cute and straightforward, this book has broad appeal for young readers. Lovely illustrations complement the text in this charming story of persistence and problem-solving.

Children are terrified by the thought of losing parents and grandparents, and cancer is a particularly frightening and mysterious illness for any age group to confront. Author Davies uses her talents as a grandmother, educator, breast cancer survivor, and patient advocate in this concept picture book that speaks frankly about the fears, tough questions, and emotional responses that both children and adults have when confronting this medical challenge. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db92d57d2e92960a6d8d64f/1581603348774-DH025H2USY03V7KRRWX0/Screen+Shot+2020-02-13+at+7.48.31+AM.png Home - Author https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db92d57d2e92960a6d8d64f/1573050222318-NY7BI7BU7THSSA7462Z7/DSC03817.jpg Home - Author - New Friends: Life in the Neck Welcome to life in the Neck, a beautiful place where animals form unbreakable connections. In New Friends, the first book in the Life in the Neck series, Delaney, Rocket, and Cardinal Red meet and learn about friendship, cooperation, and the busy world around them. But when danger comes to the Neck, will their bond be strong enough to beat it? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db92d57d2e92960a6d8d64f/1574623804746-CJL20KELX5RXO6LRV6HN/IMG_1097.jpeg Home - Author - The US Review New Friends: Life in the Neck, Book 1 by Diane Davies Beaver's Pond Press book review by Jordana Landsman "Mother Deer and Mother Rabbit were close by, enjoying the sight of the two new friends playing. Another set of eyes was watching too." Delaney the deer comes into the world full of questions for her doting mother doe. When Delaney is old enough, she becomes friends with Rocket the rabbit, and the two play and learn together. Sometime later, they are befriended by Cardinal Red, a bird protecting her soon-to-hatch eggs. Together, the trio becomes trusted friends and companions, sticking together through fun days of play, cozy naps, the terror of a fire, and the ever-present threat of a hungry resident coyote, who will only be appeased by alternate food sources for so long. This well-intended and lovingly rendered children’s book walks the line between showcasing sweet animal characters and describing the dangers they face. On the one hand, when the trio of friends convene in their series of playdates, theirs is an appealing community of youngsters developing friendship and trust, learning about others, and sharing of themselves. https://dianedavies.com/home/advocate monthly 0.5 2020-03-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db92d57d2e92960a6d8d64f/1585431911823-IIWCU4O9OQEJHLT2IZPB/thumbnail-1.jpg Home -
