A robin twice skimmed over my head while I was filming near Pool Pond, then led me to the source of a muddy patch caused by a leaking hose. Once I turned the water on, she went straight to work collecting mud for her nest.

Her mate later arrived and sang from the lilacs, while she continued building with steady purpose. What looked like an ordinary backyard moment became a reminder that nature is always communicating, if we stop long enough to notice.

I'm posting these images as evidence of what I see when I go to Amazon and search my book, "Walk the Burn". Since there are people sometimes claim reviews and information is "fake" online (many people have had this happen), I'm posting this as the date and time of my viewings.  Each screenshot is taken today, 12/23/2021, times vary, since it takes time to go to each page and category. Most of the time stamps and date show in the photos, if you have doubts, call me. Since the stats change, hourly, the book will not be #1 forever since new purchases affect the placement. Hopefully, this will show you that the book is what is listed.

Walk the Burn: Beauty & True Crime (Stories from the Whitewater Valley, Minnesota™ Book 1) Kindle Edition


CoyWolf Entertainment™ presents

Walk the Burn: Beauty & True Crime
A documentary recorded in the Whitewater Management Area in the former town of Beaver, Minnesota, a ghost town in Winona, County.

Written and photographed by #1 international best-selling and award-winning author, photographer and illustrator Lisa Loucks-Christenson

WALK THE BURN started as a 30-day documentary showing the daily changes following a controlled burn. A photo essay documented the actual fire and the black canvas it left behind in the ghost town I studied. It is now a wildlife refuge that superseded the former town of Beaver, Minnesota.

It’s a story about how life rises from the ashes and into a picture-perfect summer. Ironically, it became a crime and faith story about how God used it to break me into His service, transforming me into someone He could use to serve other people that were hurting deeper and broken harder than me.

Valentine's Adventures Exhibit Opened:

Thank you to all of our customers who shopped local today, not only our store, but neighboring bookstores, businesses. You are appreciated more than you may ever know, and all of us need your support.

Today for Small Business Saturday we didn't run specials, we didn't offer whopping savings, we gave away some books, took money off others, and opened an exhibit of our most prized friend: Valentine our 13-year-old Chihuahua, our sweet lady that has been battling all year some health issues. As her primary caregiver, where ever I am, she'll be within a paw of my hands. I've included 18 - giclee prints of my original watercolors I created for each book. I've featured illustrations from four of the seven books, and will add or rotate these through the upcoming year. I hope you can feel and experience the joy in Valentine's hearts (all three of them, two on her back) as you view these illustrations. 

Thank you Jeremy at KIMT News and KIMT News for your coverage today.

Valentine, our thirteen-year-old Chihuahua had fun meeting so many of our guests today with her exhibit opening, Valentine's Adventures, a collection of some of my paintings from her upcoming books, Blustery Tuesday!, Museum Monday!, Stowaway Saturday! and Shipwreck Sunday!. The books will release in the spring, one adventure for every day of the week. 

We are sorry she had to take a nap at the end of the afternoon and missed so many of you that stopped by. She is always with me because of her health conditions so please stop by again. Check out the story books I wrote and illustrated as a tribute to my best friend. Here's a few images of us today:Valentine and Lisa Loucks-Christenson - Valentine's Adventures;
