BOOKS BY LETTA
My name is Letta Meinen I recently moved to Salado, Texas and continue to work on writing on www.epinions.com and creating different types of books. I also write for a web site called elderwisdomcircle.org where the older members write answers to different questions. My other interests include golf, photography, politics, art, cooking and decorating my home.
My first published book came about after I had taken a childrens writing course some years ago. I have always been interested in history and thought a book aimed a product many people enjoy and learn its history.
I divided it into four sections where Cinnamon was most used to change our world. After each section I included food and craft items that go along with that period of time.

This pictures is in the backyard of my new home in Salado Texas. I moved here in July of 2004 right on Mill Creek Golf Club. I can pick up stray golf balls in my yard but enjoy the great view of the signature golf hole called The Heart of Texas. The green and sand traps are shaped like a heart and the tee box is the arrow.
We spent many winters here since 1984 so it became a second home and I am enjoying it all.
This picture is the cover of the book I started to write of my husband' Bill's Life in 2002. I took a writing course from booklocker.com on how to write your life story. Since Bill had been very ill after serious operations and followed with a stroke I felt it was important to have him remember his youth. I finished the book after he passed away on March 12, 2003. It was published locally for my family and friends. This was a gift to my family for his Memorial in Salado, Texas on Fathers Day on June 15, 2003
