Author Debuts Book of Poetry as Prescription for Everyday Ills
Longwood, FL (PRWEB) March 27, 2008 -- In today's fast-paced busy life, we are constantly being bombarded with so-called "cures" for what ails us! Most of these "quick fixes" are nothing more than mere placebos. Life on earth can be daunting at times, but there is an accepted prescription for the suffering and the challenges of life we face on a daily basis. That 'prescription' can be found in the Word of God. Xulon author Katherine Norland's recently released debut, Poetic Prescriptions for Pesky Problems (paperback, 978-1-60477-807-6), unleashes these truths in a manner that can be easily understood. It is a prescription that can be taken PRN--whenever necessary!
Says Norland, "I have been through the problems I write about in the book and the solutions for the problems came from communing with God and reading His Word. Being inspired by a higher source, this book strives to pull no punches in its directives and deliberations."
The director of a poetry group at her church in Woodland Hills, California, Norland credits a love of the Bible and God's promises as the inspiration behind her first collection of poetry. Already hailed as "a work of singular, scriptural-linked inspiration" and an "anointed book," Poetic Prescriptions for Pesky Problems goes straight to the heart of the matter, transforming readers with its insight, honesty, and truth.
Xulon Press, a part of Salem Communications Corporation, is the world's largest Christian publisher, with more than 5,000 titles published to date. Retailers may order Poetic Prescriptions for Pesky Problems through Ingram Book Company and/or Spring Arbor Book Distributors. Salem Communications is the country's leading Christian communications company with interests in radio, Internet, and magazine publishing.
