Joy Jolt For Readers, Writers, and Thinkers
Literature Lust Love Letter #11
Smile! It’s Saturday. I’m glad you’re here and hope you’re staying well.
Aren’t you glad that in this strange and stressful time we’re living in, that you have the ability to read? To get outside of our stay-at-home worlds and into other places, other situations, other cultures? Reading — no matter what you’re reading or where you’re doing it from — opens us to possibilities.
And that’s a wonderful thing.

Early praise for The Magic of Ordinary, to be released on January 15, 2021…
“Melissa Gouty writes the magical story of all our lives in The Magic of Ordinary. If you grew up in the ’60s and ’70s, this is an Our Town for our generation.”
— Teresa Medeiros, New York Times Bestselling Author
The Magic of Ordinary is the heart-tugging memoir of a Daddy, his daughters, and the power of one good man to change the world. If you love your father or if you ARE a father. If you’ve ever made fun of your siblings. If you ever wondered about your parents’ relationship. If you had grandmothers that influenced you or people who impacted your life, this book is for you. Hilarious and poignant, The Magic of Ordinary is not just my story, it’s yours, too.
p.s. On the 1st and the 15th of every month, I send out a detailed newsletter with insights into the publishing industry and literary world.
It’s a literary love letter just for you.
With warm words and wishes!
