Spelling is important
When you write a book, spelling is so important. Actually it is important all the time but I am thinking of the spelling errors in all three of my published books. And, that is with me completing my own final proof read, plus my editor and the layout artist doing the same thing.
It happens - so do what you can!
When I am working on the completed draft of a book I think about the spelling alot. Make that, "I think about it a lot."
Write about it ....
So many people say, "I should write a book."
So, if you should write a book, and you want to write a book you should at the very least sit down and start writing your book.
Works for me - and shout if I can help you.
From the heart,
Carol Ann

One more Red Hat story
Look what arrived in my mail last Friday - from the Nova Scotia Red Hat team. Touching and appreciated - thank you ladies. Very sweet.
And, thanks too for your feedback re my books and Comfort Hearts that you purchased at the event. You purchased everything I brought with me as you know!!
We ran out of books and I believe I have mailed out all the copies as promised but if anyone is missing their copy let me know if you don't receive it in the next day or so.
Don't go too crazy you mad hatters you!
Love

Bluenose 11 makes its historic relaunch
I would love to have been in Lunenburg this past Saturday morning to watch history in the making.
Nova Scotia's sailing ambassador has completed a two year restoration project. Over $15.9 million has been spent. That's million! As I understand it Ottawa covered $4.9 and our little province of Nova Scotia paid the rest.
Really? Some things I will never understand.

RIP Raylene Rankin
Yesterday I returned home from Toronto's Run for the Cure to learn of Raylene Rankin's passing. She was 52 years old. Only 52 years old and cancer had taken her life.
My sister Connie and I walked in our first Run for the Cure about 19 years ago. We were remembering our mother, Mary Rose Cole, who we lost 20 years ago this December. I hate this killer disease.
Raylene Rankin was such a gifted and beautiful singer. She was also an excellent speaker. On a few occasions when her health did not allow her to keep a speaking engagement I was called in to replace her. No one could ever replace Raylene. She often spoke and sang at these events as well so when I arrived the audience knew there would be no singing!
Breast cancer knocked on Raylene's door in 2001 and again in 2008. Last year she announced she was battling liver cancer.
My heart goes out to her son, her husband and to the entire Rankin family. We all want you to know that Raylene was loved, respected and will always be remembered.
From the heart,
Carol Ann Cole
