Welcome

I come from a long line of southern women and try my best to emulate my mamma’s good manners and hospitality. So in that spirit, I’d like to warmly welcome you to my website! I’m a self-published author who has written two inspirational nonfiction advice books filled with my own real-life anecdotes and sassy (so I’ve been told) expressions.

My first book, The Gospel According to Mamma, gives my mamma’s wisdom its due respect and is a collection of twenty-one extraordinary lessons I learned from my charming and captivating southern mamma.

My new book, The Queen of Damn Good Advice, picks up where mamma left off with my own insights and epiphanies and provides suggestions for daughters heading off to college, preparing for marriage and
more.

My books and this site are filled with positive and uplifting ideas and I hope they will be helpful and useful to you!

THE QUEEN OF DAMN GOOD ADVICE

“Annette’s conversational tone is like coffee and a chat with a wise, caring friend! Though written for mothers and daughters, The Queen of Damn Good Advice is for anyone with a spiritual nature who wants to live a fulfilling life and stop ‘energy leaks’ that affect us all. Spiritual rather than religious, I felt Annette’s use of Bible quotes enhance the writing, without being preachy. The more I read, the more I looked forward to continuing on.” —Joyce Shafer, Life Empowerment Coach; publisher of the online newsletter, State of Appreciation; and author of I Don’t Want to Be Your Guru, but I Have Something to Say

THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO MAMMA

 “Annette’s first book is a winner! She picked the perfect subject – her irrepressibly joyous mother, who has given her daughter important and inspiring words of wisdom to cherish.  If you yearn to help your daughter navigate life experiences with assurance and spunk, give her The Gospel According to Mamma.” —Mary Jo Beebe, coauthor of Jesus’ Healings and New Testament Healings
