Thanksgiving Day 2014
By Jeff Salter
Since I’m the Hound and Hound Day is on Thursdays, I always get the Thanksgiving Day post. And I have much to be thankful for. Yesterday, for example, we had our son and daughter and their spouses and five of our six grandchildren all around the same table for supper. That should be the same group for our Turkey dinner this afternoon at my daughter’s house.
I’m thankful for my two publishers, Astraea Press and Dingbat Publishing, and for their willingness to offer me contracts for the eight novels and two novellas which have been released so far (including one on the way next month).
I’m thankful for my church and Sunday School class, and for the terrific folks I get to work with in AWANA. And for the wonderful kids I’ve worked with over the past six-and-a-half years.
