I want to share a significant milestone - a new chapter, you might say. For close to 20 years, I’ve had the privilege of helping clients turn memories, images and stories into compelling printed books for their families. This month, A Path Too Narrow? A Memoir of Improbable Journeys, is now available on Amazon and bookstores. The author, Dr. J Timothy Johnson, and I couldn’t be happier and more proud!

Photos, recipes, random stories, even that “who’s that guy again?” moment — they’re all part of your family’s legacy. Let’s make it real, not just remembered. Whether you’re retired and finally ready to dig in, juggling work and elder care with shelves of old albums, or just thinking “It’s now or never,” this month is your moment. Not to do everything. Just to begin.

Yes, I’ve written a memoir! It arrived last month and took ten years. And it’s only 36 pages.

Betsy C. Baker loves to write. After her husband, David, died, the time was right to create a memoir. Holding Fast combines Betsy’s memories of childhood, her high-profile careers, marriage, family illness, death and loss with her imaginative creative fiction. Through its straight-talking, compelling stories told as truth and fiction, we are reminded to “hold fast” to our family history and memories. It was our distinct pleasure to create this book with her!

“So, Jiffy, how do I work with you and Pixorium?”

Someone asked me that question recently. Someone I was sure knew the answer. Wow.

If he didn’t know, then I had explaining to do!
