Hello dear readers!
2019 is absolutely flying by, isn’t it? I can’t believe it’s April already, and that
Mother’s Day is only one month away. It makes me think back to last year at
this time; my latest book, From This Day Forward… was in its
final stages of editing, cover art, and ordering. Hopes were high, and so were
my emotions. Very exciting!!!
Just to refresh your memory, I conducted eight interviews with
individuals and couples who (through happy marriages) have lived, or are
presently living out, their own real-life love stories. What do they do that
works well? Did they ever veer off course? If not, why not? If yes, what did
they do to get back on track?
These are folks of all ages. They range from one gentleman
in his 90’s, two women in their 80’s, two couples in their 60’s, a 40’s, 30’s,
and even a 20’s!
I want to make sure that everyone knows From This Day Forward… is
available, and that it would make a wonderful gift for your mom, aunt, wife,
daughter, or favorite woman, on that special day/weekend in May. Honestly, men will
like it too!
It’s available through Amazon as either an electronic Kindle
version, or as a beautiful paperback. Here’s the link: https://www.amazon.com/s?k=katie+kolberg+Memmel&ref=nb_sb_noss
You can also order copies of the book directly from me, and
I can sign them for you. Just contact me personally through Facebook, or e-mail
me at kkmemmel@gmail.com
Those who’ve bought and read From This Day Forward… seem to have really enjoyed it. Over the past

REVIEWS
In Chapter One alone,
I cried FOUR times. What a wonderful love story. I love the format, and how
Katie lets the story unfold so naturally. Her patience and intuition make it so
unique and moving. Loved it! Lauren
G.
I read Chapter Eight
first, and the tears just flowed. Such a beautiful story, and so wonderfully
told. Katie, thank you for putting it down on paper to share with others. Your
book will be a gift and a blessing to all who read it. I need another copy so
that I can share it with my son and his fiancé. Vicki
T.
I’m loving Katie’s
new book, From This Day Forward… She
is such a gifted writer. Laura G.
I loved Katie’s new
book, especially since I know some of the couples she interviewed, personally.
It was so fun to read about their love stories. Shirley W.
The gentleman in
Chapter One reminds me of my own grandpa. I’m really enjoying this book. Deb R.
I’m really enjoying From This Day Forward… except that I cry
almost every day at lunch, while I’m reading it. Ali
C.
Katie’s new book is
so well-written, I can almost hear her voice as I read along. I found that I
could relate a piece of myself to each of the eight stories. The book has made
me laugh, but there have also been parts where I’ve totally ‘lost it.’ Katie,
be sure to thank the couples who participated in the interviews, for sharing their
stories. Well done! Sally W.
Katie’s new book, From This Day Forward… makes me smile,
but has also made me cry – knowing what people go through with their spouse at
the end of life, when death does them part. I guess that’s real life, for
better or for worse. I need a second copy of the book for my son and his fiancé
to read. Cindy E.
I loved Katie’s new
book. It offers a lot of good advice for newlyweds. I need a second copy for a
wedding I’m planning to attend. Nancy C.
I wasn’t very far
into From This Day Forward… and I was
already teary. The interview process must have been amazing. Well done, Katie! Katie R.
I’ve loved all three
of Katie’s books, and think she’s a great author. From This Day Forward… was wonderful, and so easy to read. It’s
almost as though she is right here, talking with me. Barb
K.
In From This Day Forward… Katie has such a
charming way of relating the stories. It’s easy and interesting, yet
thought-provoking. Her new book gets an A+ from me.
Beth D.
From This Day Forward… is such a beautiful read! Robyn
A.
Katie, who’s the guy in Chapter one? What a great storyteller! Mike R.
I was so appreciative and humbled to receive these kind compliments, and am so thrilled that my readers are enjoying From This Day Forward... Thank you to all of the contributors!
Well, I guess that’s it for now. As always, thanks for checking in.
I hope to hear from you soon, and hopefully get some of YOUR feedback about the
book. Until then,
Happy Reading
