In The Community Book Project: Celebrating 365 Days of Gratitude, published December 7, 2020, people from all walks of life join together in this thought-of-the-day collection of essays–one for every day of the year. Inside are stories about the things, people, circumstances, and events the contributors are grateful for. These “gratitude-in-real-life” stories are about more than the polite “thank you” we casually exchange every day. They’re testimonials to the people and things we often take for granted. Participating members include: Jordan Bernal (March 17), Jane Glendinning (September 3), Julaina Kleist-Corwin (January 1, March 19, & April 5), Diane Lovitt (June 5), Carole MacLean (August 2), and Lynne Menon (March 30, April 2, & September 28).
