New! - Disney® Cruising for Elderly Introverts
To Castaway Cay aboard the Disney Wish
Have you just made a horrible mistake and booked a Disney Cruise? That was what I thought after booking a cruise for the inaugural year of the new Disney Wish and then watching a few YouTube videos. The activities that delighted my favorite bloggers were the Marvel and Frozen interactive elevated rotational dining, followed by spectacular Broadway-like shows in a huge theater. To top off our list of things we don’t enjoy was a dress-up Pirate Party and fireworks. Oh no! What have I done? How can two elderly introverts enjoy a cruise on a ship full of screaming kids? If you are looking for a book to get the most out of your Disney Cruise - this isn’t the book. But if want a different type of cruise experience for elderly introverts, that want to have lots of alone time on a ship with 4,000 passenger - this is it!

Rhine River Cruising: A Viking Journey of Castles and Chocolate
After I started to book a Viking cruise, I found the decisions overwhelming. When to go? European rivers had level problems all summer during the drought. Where do we go? How do we get there? What do I pack? Which deck is better? It took a lot, but I figured it out with the help of a few Facebook groups. I kept so many notes that I put them in a free e-book on my website, but so many wanted a printed copy to take on the cruise. I agreed to publish this book to help others make the tough decisions that I did. This was the most significant travel expense I had ever spent; in the end, it was the best trip! We had many mishaps; missing luggage, a hurricane, and an airport closure – but we got through everything thanks to my careful planning and the wonderful people at Viking Cruises. I hope this book can help you along the way, no matter which cruise you pick. Order printed copy on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BM3XTVF6

Her middle-grade book, Sleep Warrior, about her Cherokee ancestor, is on Coverfly’s Red List as the #3 Animated Manuscript.
Sandi's family is part of the Wolf Clan of the Cherokee tribe and she has written two screenplays with wolves. NOT werewolves - these wolves are real.
