About the Book
About This Book
My mother often talked about putting her memories into a book. She had a lifetime of stories to tell, growing up as an outdoors kid where something was always happening, and life was never boring. From close calls to laugh-out-loud moments, her stories were full of life, and she wanted her children and grandchildren to have them as a keepsake.
She often said she wished her parents and grandparents had done the same thing. To her, it was more than storytelling. It was about leaving something meaningful for the next generation.
What she didn't know at the time was that her son would one day become a published author and have the opportunity to make her wish a reality.
In Our Secret Group, her stories come to life just as she lived them. You read about unforgettable moments that make you laugh, stories that surprise you, and others that remind you how real childhood experiences can be.
These are true stories about real people and real life. They capture a time she loved and often wished she could live all over again.
This book is her legacy, now fulfilled. It's a gift for her family and to everyone who wants to understand the value of remembering where she came from.
As you read these stories, I hope they inspire you to write your own. One day, they may mean more to your family than you ever imagined.
