Art Shay: "In a world obsessed with the aggressive explorations of other countries and cultures, it is sheer delight to recommend a classic internal search: "Savvy Me...(NOT)" a Comedy of Errors and Successes is an entertaining tour through the life of a bouncy country girl who developed her passion for music - especially singing- into the esthetic centerpiece of a normal life, - with, alas, many pitfalls -which she conquers with style and pizzazz.Readers will marvel how, at long last, this empty- nester who had accepted a kind of second-class life at the hands of other people- finds her true self by searching for, finding, then utilizing all her hidden assets- and putting them into play. This is a talented woman's story for women- for women who sense there is more to their lives- if only they could tug at the right threads to undo the tangle of their former days.Judi K somehow manages to inspire in others the feelings she found in herself- and to enrich what she calls her "late in life" overcoming of hardships and obstacles that would have daunted many lesser women.Having produced more than 60 books over the past half century, I'm happy to recommend "Savvy Me (NOT)" - A Comedy of Errors and Successes to as many of my readers as I can.

Now she puts her insight -- and her trademark sense of heart to use in this memoir from the front lines of personal trial. Every woman who has braved unexpected setbacks will identify with Judi's journey from joy to tragedy and back" - Shelly Wruk Finke; Scriptwriter, NPR International, "Riverwalk, Live from the Landing" Writer, editor & publisher Jazz E-weekly

RIP. Rest in peace. Why is it that when a loved one passes away, the family and friends say, "Rest in peace?" Are the dead really in peace? The dead know nothing, so how could that person be in peace? So, what is the truth behind this saying? God makes it clear in His word where people go after they die. Is there such a thing as life after death, or is death the end of life? People have different opinions about this. People need to know the truth about where they will spend eternity when they die, and not just someone's opinion except the fact that no one wants to know the truth, and if they did know the truth, they would not tell the deceased person's family that their deceased loved one is spending eternity in hell and being tormented daily. Imagine this: You are at your loved one's funeral, and you say, "Rest in peace," and then someone says to you, "Why are you saying that? This person lived a life of wickedness, cheating, hurting people, lying to people, and stealing from people, and you say, 'Rest in peace.' Why should that person be in peace? What did they do to deserve peace? That person is going to hell, and in hell, there is no peace." Is this something you want to hear at a funeral? Too many people are being deceived by this saying only because it helps those who are hurting to clear their minds. Yes, granted, that person's body is dead, but are they dead? Or are they living beyond their grave? The spirit is very much alive. So once again, is that person resting in peace, or how would a person even know? What about you? Where would you spend eternity if you were to die right now? Read this book and find out. All knowledge of this book has been inspired by God and is backed up by the word of God in it.

She wants us, the readers, to truly know His love, to rest in His work, to look forward to Heaven, and so much more."-Rev. Laurie Langley, Evangel Cathedral"The story on page 15 alone is worth the price of the book. I wish I could respond to harsh people just like Lynn did!"-Rev. Arthur Holt, Spartanburg, SC.Author of "What I Have Come to Believe" and "People of My Journey""I personally read Lynn's book many times. Her down to earth writing reads as comfort food for the soul. I unfortunately was incarcerated when first I read it; but it quickly became the most popular book among our daily prayer group. Three men were moved to fully accept Christ as their Savior and myself finally accepted the calling God laid on me. Read the book and may God bless you and keep you."-"Preacher" - former inmate of Madison County Jail.
