Preview of a new book about women's search for identity, self-esteem, and happiness. The non-fiction book chronicles the lives of three contemporary minority women. It's a compelling story of real Americans women who are heroines not because of remarkable feats but in the graceful way they live in the face of challenges. Living in the Heartland: Three Extraordinary Women's Stories is due out on Amazon.com in mid- to late-Jan. 2010.

Thank you for viewing the video and for the response. Hope you will buy the book and communicate with me as you read. I wrote to share, which means that people have to read and talk about the book. I just participating in a book club at a local university. One woman said what she valued most about the book was that she could relate to the women. They weren't lofty heroines - amputees scaling Everest or blind lion tamers. These were everyday women facing daily challenges with grace.

@carolyncjjones Thank you for both the kind words and the purchase. I wrote to share, and I can't do that if people don't get a copy. Please feel free to email me or tweet me @intheheartland3. We can have an ongoing book club.
