It seems that David has not only filled the void in my heart, but has also become the muse of my creative sensibilities and given me the inspiration I have been searching for all my life. There is so much goodness in love and marriage. Thanks to David and the joys of marriage, I will be starting my very first book this summer and hoping to find a publisher this fall upon completion. Please keep me in your prayers as I embark on this new and exciting venture in life.
The title of my new book is "The Guide to Proper Husbandry: Exorcising the Bachelor Out of Your Husband".
Below is an excerpt of chapter five, "The Replacement Theory: Learning to Replace and Refill". Much thought and consideration was put into format, style and layout. Given the profile of my target reader, it seemed that the picture book format would be the most conducive to instruction and retention.

Chapter 5
The Replacement Theory: Learning to Replace and Refill
Pause and take a moment to observe your bathroom. Some typical fixtures you will notice are the shower/bath, toilet, lighting fixtures and the sink. Additionally, there are towel rods, mirrors and a medicine cabinet found in most American bathrooms. You should also find a very small rod-like fixture usually found within arms reach of the toilet. This is called the toilet paper holder. This device is meant to hold a roll of toilet paper and facilitate the dispense of toilet paper.
How to Use:
To use, remove a roll of toilet paper from its wrapper/package. Dislodge the rod from the wall mounts (Normally, there is a spring mechanism holding the rod in place. Simply push either ends towards the center and this will allow you to release the rod). Discard the empty cardboard roll and replace with the new roll.
It is critical to note that the toilet paper should always dispense from the top of the roll and over; not underneath from the bottom. Doing so will allow a quick and clean tear.
