[Missouri-l] Books and Beyond Presents Author, Joan Wester anderson, Dec. 7, 2010

[Nancy Lynn]

Newswire:
    She is the author of Where Angels Walk and writes a story each week 
about angels with that title. Her stories of the week about their many ways 
of entering our lives are a source of encouragement to those experiencing 
moments of doubt or trouble. Joan didn't always write about this topic. At 
the start of her writing career, she was encouraged by fellow writer and 
friend, Anne Toland Serb to begin writing about raising four sons and a 
daughter. After several books together, Joan's son had his experience on a 
country road with his angel in a time of great need, and the rest, as they 
say is history. Gentle and soft-spoken, she embodies the spirit of 
Christmas. On past shows, she has discussed motherhood and angels, but this 
time she will discuss the spirit of Christmas and how we live it today. In a 
time of great need and a world in which materialism seems the master, how 
can we keep the spirit of Christmas and the holiday season alive? How and 
where do you find the happiness in this joyful time? Are their simple ways 
in which our love for all can be celebrated? Do you have an angel story of 
your own to share?Joan Wester Anderson knows the joy of angels and family 
and has seen her children grow to loving adulthood and remain close and 
loving as friends. This, for many, is reason enough to celebrate the season. 
Sit down with a cup of eggnog, nibble on those delicious cookies baked just 
for Christmas. Sit back and enjoy with us Joan Wester Anderson. She is a 
cherished friend and part of our Books And Beyond family we love to share. 
As you listen, any worries or concerns you have will just float away. We 
love her and know you will too.
