Waterfront Book Launching this Saturday - JOIN ME!!



This Saturday, on January 14th, I will be attending the book launching for Dr. Lucia Matthew’s new book, Harriett’s Walk: How To Make Wiser Choices For A Better Life. Dr. Matthews is a psychologist located in Barrington, RI. I had pleasure of meeting her a few years ago at a friend’s party and then again recently this past spring when she contacted me to take photos of her for her new book and also of her wonderful family (furry ones included).

You are all welcome to attend Dr. Matthew’s book launching which is a “Champagne Celebration” to be held at The Lobster Pot Restaurant in Bristol, RI from 12:30 - 2:30 on Saturday, Jan. 14th. She will be discussing and signing copies of her book.


On Saturday, January 21st, Dr. Matthews will be discussing and signing copies of her book at a Book Signing event to be held at Center Ace Hardware at 156 County Rd. in Barrington, RI from 1:00 – 3:00. I hope you can attend one of these “not to be missed” events!


Although I have not yet read Dr. Matthew’s book, I have no doubt that it will be as fascinating and inspiring as she is. I have read fabulous reviews and plan on purchasing my “signed” copy at the launching. I will eventually be posting my own review.


Harriett’s Walk is a self-help book but actually reads like a novel. Harriet is a fictional character who is forced into counseling after lunging at her husband with a kitchen knife. Under the care of “Dr. Aye”, she is taught nine skills to deal more wisely with her feelings. These are the actual skills that Dr. Matthew’s has taught to all of her clients to help them to manage stress and disappointment in their lives.


Are you interested in making wiser choices when dealing with stress and faced with some of life’s disappointments? I know I am and can’t wait to read this book! Let’s face it; we all feel like lunging at someone at some point in our lives and I want to personally learn about these 9 skills and hopefully be able to use them when faced with those out-of-control moments.

I took this photo of Dr. Matthews at her beautiful home in Barrington, RI. It was used for the back cover of her book. Doesn't she look fabulous?!
