GIVEAWAY – ‘Hunting Hope’ by Nika Maples (Plus a Giveaway and Live Webcast)

Hunting Hope Nika Maples

At twenty, Nika Maples learned that when hope was all she had, she claimed it boldly while defying all odds to recover from a devastating stroke. The lessons from that struggle are powerful and universal, and she shares those lessons in her new book, Hunting Hope. Doctors warned that she had as little as 48 hours to live, and—if she lived at all—she would never walk or talk again. There was no hope on the horizon. So Nika started to hunt for it. Today, she not only walks, but she speaks to audiences everywhere about the power of hunting hope when a situation appears hopeless. She says hope remains camouflaged in the daily mundane. If we are not looking for it, we will miss it, though it is right before our eyes.

Celebrate the release of Hunting Hope with a $200 Getaway Giveaway (details below) and a live webcast with Nika on May 26!

Motivated Moms Giveaway!

One of my very favorite organizational tools is the Motivated Moms Planner.  It is a chore planning system which allows you to stay organized and keep household tasks spread out through the week so you don’t have to contend with one major cleaning day.  It includes daily tasks to attend to as well as weekly items.  It also incorporates little tasks throughout the year that help you stay organized and keep your house nice and spiffy.  I have tried other popular systems, but I have found Motivated Moms to be the best by far.

When I first started using the Motivated Moms Planner it was only available via e-book.  This format allows one to purchase and then download and print the planner.  This format is still available and costs $8.  Now there is also an iPhone/iPad app version that is available for $7.99, and an Android version available for $5.99.  If you wish to try out the apps there is a “Lite” version that allows you to try the app for 2 weeks.  In my opinion, the app versions are even better than the original as they provide limitless opportunities for a user to customize task lists and include the option of delegating tasks to other family members via color coding.  I have included some screen shots below of the app in action for your review.

As a special New Year’s treat for Once Upon a Storyville readers, I am offering a FREE copy of the iPhone/iPad app version of the Motivated Moms Planner.  I know you will love it!
