🫖 Teapot Tuesdays! My Mrs. Potts teapot is grooving to mellow 70s tunes, celebrating the release of my alter ego Evie Kelley's 1976-set coming of age tale, MY BICENTENNIAL.

Image is of a shiny yellow teapot with a curved orange handle and an almond-shaped orange knob on the cover sitting atop a stack of books with the title “My Bicentennial” and the author’s name Evie Kelley in orange letters on the spine. The background is a wildly colorful mixture of 1970s style hot pink, red, and orange flowers with big petals.

The 50-foot Dignity sculpture by Dale Lamphere honors Sioux women with a shimmering star quilt and proud stance overlooking the Missouri River. A beautiful tribute to Indigenous culture, yet it still doesn’t get nearly the attention it deserves. (Source: Smithsonian Magazine)

My memoir was my first book. Had I listened to a doctor's grim prognosis, I would have lost all hope. My story tells how I defied the odds and overcame every daunting situation that came my way. Written to inspire readers of all walks. May it Awaken the dreamer. amazon.com/author/shann...

Tall palm trees reach towards a bright blue sky veiled with wispy clouds, with the sun peeking through the swaying fronds. The tropical scenery includes a black sandy beach with a view of a calm sea and distant horizon.

Once an abstract line drawing laterally digitally manipulated into vibrant blue and purple hues creating a kaleidoscopic effect, radiating outwards from a central point that appears to glow with a soft lilac light.

The design is symmetrical with sharp, angular patterns that suggest a sense of dynamic movement.
