A Follow Up on Georgia Saunders, "the homeless scribe"

In Tuesday's post, part of our confession was to support Georgia Saunders, "the homeless scribe" and author of "Home Street Home: The Virginia Beach Chronicles".

This evening I received the following message from Ginny Sorrell at Grace Covenant Presbyterian Church, sharing new ways we can all support Georgia in her efforts to become a writer and regain independence and financial security:

"Hi,
   Georgia called last nite and asked if we(her fans) would go on Facebook to the Home Street Home page and click on the 2 interviews she gave to DON’T THROW THIS LETTER AWAY and GENRE BUDS.  Publishers need to see that she has people who like her work and are following the reviews.  You can click on like, comment, or share on your own FB page.
       Don’t you think she needs to add a study guide for book groups or one-time book discussions?
       Wouldn’t it be wonderful if her writing takes her off the streets permanently??
                        Hugs to all!
                            G

And, Carol Lake sent me the contact link for the Oprah Book Club.  We can simply send them a message suggesting they offer, take a look at Georgia’s HSH!  Wouldn’t it be wonderful if they gave her a call to find out more??!!!

FYI-Here's the weekly newsletter, with the "contact us" link.
