This latest Heritage Press project has a special place in my editor's/publisher's heart as it involves two of my favorite Heritage Press writers, Lisa & Lori Minneti, the authors of HAZEL MOON and the soon to be released sequel, HAWTHORN MOON.
With Mother's Day approaching, the two daughters of Gail Arden Minneti, honored their mother's memory with two book signings of a memoir written over the past 30 years by their mother who had passed in 2022.
Their mother and their grandmother nurtured the Twins love of literature, instilling in them the passion to both read and write. After their mother died, in going through her things they found several notebooks filled with her essays describing her abiding love for the many cats she shared her life with.
Lisa, Lori, and I got busy carefully transcribing her notes, adding special details like Gail's love of sunflowers, and shaping her story, readable for all ages, into a book in which Gail shares the wisdom she acquired by carefully observing the many cats that came to share her life from the age of 50 until her passing in 2022.

We added pictures and when the book was published we realized that we'd been given a precious gift and that gift was meant to be shared with the world. Heritage Press, through LULU.com offers both soft and hard cover editions of CATS I HAVE KNOWN.
