HOW I LIVE TSLL (IG @thesimplyluxuriouslife)

Savoring the Sojourn, TSLL's 4th book, is now out

Savoring the Sojourn, TSLL's 4th book, is now out in the world, and as it had been 8 years since I last signed preordered copies (electing during the throes of the pandemic in 2022 to send signed bookplates instead of The Road to Le Papillon), I am so tickled to be able to offer this option. ☺️📖🖋️ There is something that feels as though there is more of a connection between author and reader. Thank you, to each reader who ordered their preordered signed copy because I know you had to wait a bit longer for it to arrive, but I do hope that upon the book's arrival (the last shipment left Le Papillon this past Wednesday!), it was deemed worth the anticipatory build-up ☺️.

I also elected to return to the signing of preorders and providing the option of selling directly to you from my home in Bend, Oregon, as I thought that was more important than striving for a temporary #1 ranking in any of the categories the book was placed. Seeing my last book reach this designation in France Travel, was an unexpected surprise made entirely possible by you all purchasing en masse from one source. And funnily enough, Savoring the Sojourn inched close to the Top 10 in Gardening and Top 100 in Happiness, which was wonderful to see! Wherever and from whomever you purchased the book, thank you, and if you find the book insightful, inspiring, helpful, reassuring or any other positive description, the best compliment is to spread the word - to others you think will enjoy the book, in a review, on social media, wherever would be most natural for you to do so. That means more than you know. 💛📖💛

Now to the reading of Savoring the Sojourn! As I shipped off each book, to see where in the world each was traveling for its new home delighted me enormously, and deepens my appreciation further for TSLL vast community of folks, of all ages and lifestyles cultivating their very own, and deeply signature simply luxurious life.

Wishing you all wonderful savored moments of reading. 😌📖 Bon week-end!
