Had a wonderful interview with New York Times bestselling author of The Jefferson Keytoday. Steve Berry and I talked about writing, books, preservation of history, piracy, the U.S. Constitution and the USO. It was an informative, entertaining and motivating interview. I'm grateful Steve took the time out of his insanely busy schedule to conduct this interview with me.
Here's the fun part! Steve's foundation, History Matters, is specifically for the preservation of history. He is coming to Utah in May of 2012 to conduct a writers seminar, all the proceeds of which will go to the Salt Lake Historical Society. I am very excited to go and learn from one of the best writers out there today, and to contribute to the preservation of history at the same time. Kind of a grand slam for me!
Anyway, enjoy the interview. It aired on Turning the Tide's show today at 1:00 p.m. MDT on Livestream.com.

Convention of Statesmen: 20-21 May 2016
Created to not only recognize excellence in the political spectrum, but to also aid in the education of America as to the greatness of the American Dream, and the Republic upon which it was born. Learn More by clicking on the picture.
So yesterday was the day! The Beautiful Bodacious Babbling Blogging Babes met for the first time at Golden Corral. I remembered a lot of thi...
I pledge allegiance ...
The American Flag
"When I see the American flag rippling in the breeze against the majesty of the Rocky Mountains, a thrill of patriotism runs through my soul. How I love America and all that she offers to her citizens and the world. We must protect her against all who would destroy her as an ensign to the world of freedom, liberty, and justice. May God bless America and the efforts of her citizens to restore her. May she always remain the last best hope of the earth." Candace E. Salima
The U.S. Constitution
Forever may we be free ...
This Nation Shall Not Fail
"Men may fail in this country, earthquakes may come, seas may heave beyond their bounds, there may be great drought, disaster, and hardship, but this nation, founded on principles laid down by men whom God raised up, will never fail. This is the cradle of humanity, where life on this earth began in the Garden of Eden. This is the place of the new Jerusalem. This is the place that the Lord said is favored above all other nations in all the world. This is the place where the Savior will come to His temple. This is the favored land in all the world. Yes, I repeat, men may fail, but this nation won't fail. I have faith in America; you and I must have faith in America, if we understand the teachings of the gospel of Jesus Christ. We are living in a day when we must pay heed to these challenges.
"I plead with you not to preach pessimism. Preach that this is the greatest country in all the world. This is the favored land. This is the land of our forefathers. It is the nation that will stand despite whatever trials or crises it may yet have to pass through. (Ye Are the Light of the World, Harold B. Lee, p350-51)
Soft Tyranny in America
"Do not let soft tyranny destroy your desire to excel. Yes, it's a little harder these days, but it is up to you. American history is filled with men and women who refused to settle for the status quo, and no matter how hard it was, they reached for the exceptionalism that exists in each of us. Now it is our turn. We have over two centuries of triumphs and failures, but the triumphs eclipsed the failures. That, my friends, is how life rolls." Candace Salima
