Final Holiday Craft Show: Unique Gifts Await

I am looking forward to the last show of the year. It’s coming up this Saturday Dec. 6 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. There will be 100 vendors offering unique gifts.

The show is making a comeback after a two-year hiatus. Overall, I did well this year compared to previous years. Although I missed a big one–Christmas Through Lowell due to illness.

Books available

Book Nook of Saugatuck, Bettie’s Pages

My hottest seller remains historical fiction The Lost Town set in Singapore, MI.

I am wrapping up the final edits to The Quest for the Lost Town.

My second best seller is my award-winning Greenwich Meridian Memoir which is a two-generation saga trackng our escape from former Czechoslovakia.

Stop by to purchase a unique gift that keeps on giving. My book no. 2 Secrets continues to sell very well. Part of its magic is the 3D optical illusion cover titled Gossip, and then the killer title Secrets.

Happy Thanksgiving

I will soon celebrate Thanksgiving with part of my family, the other part had to stay put due to the upcoming snowstorm in Michigan.

That breaks my heart in many different ways. The list is too long to name.

I must stay grounded in my Taurus zodiac sign.

I am also commemorating the 36th anniversary of the Velvet Revolution in former Czechoslovakia.

Again my heart is flooded with emotions too strong to write.

Have a great holiday.

Shifts in time

Time shifts.

dedicated to my father professor Vaclav Konecny who started out as a physicist at the University of Brno, Czech Republic.

Later, he taught calculus at Ferris State University in Big Rapids.

The two images depict shifts in time. The first image shows how I grouped the objects on Wednesday Nov. 12, 2025.

The second image shows how I grouped the objects on Tuesday, Nov. 11, 2025.

What is the difference between the two images?

Dedicated to Eva, class of 1986, Technical Universtiy, Brno. in memoriam to the passage of her husband Jan.

Notes: I am using J.R.R. Tolkien and Dan Brown writing strategies in a different manner.

J.R.R. Tolkien created new realms based in mythology and philology.

Dan Brown: You need the Clock, the Crucible and the Contract.

In the Clock, Brown is referring to time pressure, the Crucible presents a situation where escape is possible, the Contract is a promise to the reader to answer all questions.

You determine your own clock in the story, your own crucible and your own contract.

You layer the different characters and reach into the past, bring them into the present and put them in the future.

For example I created Paul character by pulling out his letters and postcards from the 1990s, discovered what he was like, and came across a card game Marias mobile he had created in 2024.

However, I couldn’t download the app categorized as a marriage app.

Discoveries Day 1 of new project

By Emma Palova

Dedicated to my lifelong friend Eva

I will begin with the basics of a philosophy that refuses to die, while its application– socialism had suffered a velvet death on the brick streets of St. Wenceslas Square in Prague on November 17, 1989.

Marxist Leninist philosophy was the product of a friendship between Karl Marx in Germany and Frederick Engels in England.

Marx and Engels began working together in 1844 in Paris, France.

They first met in person in August 1844 at the Café de la Régence, where they spent about ten days in intense discussion. That meeting marked the start of their lifelong intellectual and political partnership.

Shortly after, they collaborated on their first major joint work, “The Holy Family” (1845), and later co-authored the famous “Communist Manifesto” (1848) for the Communist League.

Cover of a book titled ‘Marxistická-leninská filozofie,’ indicating its focus on Marxist-Leninist philosophy.
