Congratulations to Yelm area author Bettye Johnson for her achievement in her book 'Secrets of the Magdalene Scrolls' featured in today's Seattle P-I:

"It's hard not to be inspired by an author such as Bettye Johnson. After all, how many first-time novelists do you know who are great-grandmothers? All it takes is one conversation with Johnson to understand that the author of "The Secrets of the Magdalene Scrolls" (Living Free Press, 318 pages, $19.95) has never fit neatly into any of the accepted mores that once governed women of her generation.
Reached by phone at her home in the town of Rainier in Thurston County, the writer admits to feeling "very blessed" about the publication of her novel."

Another Ramtha student making news creating new ideas and inspiring others! Fantastic, Bettye...
