Feel free to check out this neat trailer I made for the book. It would have been better, but Windows 7 doesn't come with Movie Maker anymore. I had to download the Windows Live Suite, which only has a watered down version of Movie Maker.

Thanks Amy. For the music I wanted something soft and filled with the spirit of the season, so that instrumental version of Silent Night fit the bill perfectly. Are you sure you're not eager to read the book? I would hate to think that the thought of reading my book caused you any anxiety.

Thanks ladies. I create trailers from time to time for my clients, but they're a bit different because usually I using photo images, not artwork.
I'm so glad you're looking forward to reading the book, Savannah. I wouldn't want you to be anxious over it.

Well, there's always got to be one risk taker in the crowd.

I tried to post something the other night, but I don't think it showed up. I just wanted to say, congratulations, Cheryl! That's such exciting news. I can't wait to read your book - it sounds like it's going to be wonderful!
