Hey there, readers! It has been a minute since I wrote for this blog. I have continued to publish monthly articles for Catholic Mom, but I only cross-post here when they are relevant to marriage/ family life, and the last few have not been. But definitely head over there to check them out! I just had a book review go up this past week for an Advent devotional that I recommend to anyone who feels stressed out by the holidays!
Book updates!
I have lots of exciting news about my upcoming, debut book on Catholic marriage and married Saints (check out this throwback post if you’re new here and want to know what my book is about!). In August, I went to visit my publisher, Marian Press, located at the Shrine of the Divine Mercy in Stockbridge, MA. I got to tour the facility, meet a few of the people I’ve been emailing the past two years, and grab some free books and Divine Mercy swag! The trip got me very excited to see my book in print, which they told me would happen this fall!
While we still don’t quite have a formal release date yet, the book went to press a few weeks ago so I should be able to update that any day now. However, we DO have a cover image to share right now! Isn’t it beautiful?
Later this fall, ‘Holier Matrimony’ will be available for purchase on Marian’s website and at your local Catholic bookshop, and a few months after that it will be available on Amazon in print or digital format.
How you can help
It has been almost five years since I started working on this project, and I can’t believe we are finally at the finish line. If you’d like to help my book be as successful as possible, here are some things you could do:
- PRAY for me and my book! I want my book to bless as many marriages as possible with the friendship of married Saints, the power of marital grace, and the beautiful wisdom of Mother Church.
- Subscribe to this blog via email, and make sure you follow me on Facebook and Instagram (@holiermatrimony). Your support means so much to me!
- Spread the word about my blog/ social media, and of course about the book itself once it is available. If you have a podcast, blog, newsletter, or other media ministry related to Catholic marriage and family life, I would love to be a guest there to promote my work, as well. Hook a girl up!
- Let me know if you have any ideas for my NEXT book! Saints, sacraments, marriage, raising young children in the faith…What do you want to read more about? Comment below or shoot me a DM on social media!
Thank you for all your support and encouragement in my journey to publication, friends. Hopefully I’ll be back here very soon with a release date or even a link to purchase ‘Holier Matrimony’ at long last!
