In October of 2016 I published my first book, Humpty Dumpty Cracks and All. It was illustrated by my daughter Rachael. This was a great accomplishment for both of us. It was a blessing to work together to bring Humpty's story to life. But blessings are not always easy. I have to say that in any partnership, especially when it is with someone you love, the road can get a little rocky. But Rachael and I persevered and after much hard work, and a few firings and rehirings, we managed to publish our first book. Quite the miracle, as neither one of us knew what we were doing! I have been blogging about Humpty for quite sometime on my Facebook Page, at Susan Beth Furst Poet and Author. You can read about Humpty and our publishing journey there.
Now, I want to introduce Humpty to my beautifuldefect readers. Humpty's story is a tale of hope and redemption, a classic fairy tale. He had become complacent after sitting on his wall for so many years. As he lay cracked and broken on the ground he began to despair. A wandering knight and a drummer boy offered little in the way of help. But a series of events ensued, and Humpty found himself miraculously transformed. It is my hope that you might find yourself transformed by Humpty's story. After all it is never too late for a miracle!
