Some people have a bucket list that has daring things to do or something they longed to do for years.

Looking Out the Window: Kathy Neely Talks about Her New Book, In Search of True North. Gives Away a Copy

   A Warm Welcome to Kathy Neely Kathy will giveaway a  USA - print or digital copy; INTERNATIONAL - digital copy only.  Hi Kathy, tell us a little about yourself. I am happily married, the mother of three grown sons, and grandma to two adorable little boys. I love being retired and enjoy writing, reading, meeting with church friends and family. We enjoy game nights and cookouts. Before retirement, I worked as an elementary principal. Prior to that, I taught school. When I retired from my position as a school administrator, I knew I needed something to fill those hours. I told my husband I was going to look for a retirement job. I fancied myself scanning purchases in one of my favorite stores like Hobby Lobby or World Market. He cautioned me not to be hasty. What good advice that turned out to be.

I now write fiction for both adults and children and am loving it. Thus far, I’ve published five novels and two novellas for adults, and seven books for children.  Why do you write? To point people to Jesus Christ. Tell us about your latest book. My latest novel is titled Miracle in Milan. It is set in Milan, Italy, and is the story of a young, female auditor who discovers convincin
