    I had hoped “Soar Above the Yesterdays” would have been released by Thanksgiving. It is a little behind schedule, but we have high hopes that you will be able to have your very own copy within two to three weeks.

    To refresh your memory on the book, it is a sequel to “All Things”, and takes Susanna into some more decision making. Old characters are revisited; new characters introduced; there is mystery, history, and romance to add to the excitement. Susanna has two paths she can follow. Does God have a role in His perfect plan for her with her musical talents, or is there an entirely new and different path for her to travel?

    The new book “Soar Above the Yesterdays” is with the publisher.  Target date for availability will be within 2 months.  I’ll keep you posted.

    Soar Above the Yesterdays, a sequel to All Things, brings Susanna Elder more life-changing decisions with romance, history, and mystery.  Old characters are revisitied and new ones introduced.  What mystery does her antique desk reveal? Susanna finds two paths in front of her; which one will she take.  Does she follow her dream of a career in music, or will Providence lead her in a different direction?  What hope for a future lies in the path of a single mother of twins?

    A new book is on its way.  “Soar Above the Yesterdays” is a sequel to “All Things”.  The rough draft is complete and in the hands of a first reader.  The next step will be an editor, and then the difficult task of re-working the story into a book we can all enjoy. Hopefully, it will be in print by the end of 2009 or before.

    “Soar Above the Yesterdays” is the continuing story of Susanna Elder, her twins, and her friends and family.  Whereas “All Things” is a story about the dilemma of unanticipated pregnancy, “Soar Above the Yesterdays” works through the problems following a young woman who has normal feelings, wants a normal life of romance, career, and hope for the future.  Although the concept of “secondary virginity” is the primary focus of the book, a bit of mystery combined with romance and career decisions carry the focus to its logical conclusion.

    Many of the same characters carry Susanna’s story through 1956, both in Grassy Branch and Kenbridge.  Carly Rose, Duncan, Grandpa, Aunt Sarah, Jim Bob and many others play important roles in her life.  You will meet many new faces, as well.

    I’m looking forward to sharing with you the conclusion to Susanna’s story.
