Words of Wisdom – From Dad

Father's Day Contest 2013

There's No Wisdom Like Dad's Wisdom


Over the past few months I’ve been sharing pieces of wisdom from Mr. Engelmann, taken straight from all four books of the Angelic Letters series.  Just as Mr. Engelmann had words of advice to share with Henry, so too have all of us at one time or another had the chance to gain wisdom from our own fathers.


In honour of that wisdom I’m giving away a free copy of Pewter Angels to some lucky Dad who’s wisdom has remained with his kids.  All you have to do to enter is comment on this post and share with us one of your own father’s pieces of wisdom!  Winners will be chosen by a draw from all the entries!


Good luck to all the dads!

A Gift for a Special Grad

My mom gave me the first one when I graduated two years ago…and I’ve re-read them a billion times since.  They are perfect for anyone who is trying to figure things out on their own. ~ Neely Dawn Gustafson


When I read the above comment posted by Neely Dawn Gustafson on my Facebook Page, on how she had received Pewter Angels as a Grad gift, I realized I wanted to help some other Grads try to “figure things out.”


That’s why I’m running a little contest to give away 3 copies of Pewter Angels to 3 lucky Grads.  Simply post a comment here, on my Facebook Page (www.facebook.com/henryripplinger) or on Twitter (@HenryRipplinger) naming a Grad, and why you think they would benefit from receiving the book.  I will do 3 draws from all of the names submitted and mail them out a personalized copy.


Looking forward to hearing about all the young people that are venturing out into the world!


The Angelic Letters Series makes a great Grad Gift

I had a chance to meet a real life “Jenny”  - It was great meeting Jennifer and I’m very pleased that she is enjoying the series!! Thanks for coming out Jenny!!!


Today was a great signing! Chatted with so many followers of the series and there were moments when we all got a bit teary eyed over some of the events in book 4!

Book 4 – The Angelic Occurrence is Now Out and The Signings Have Started!

The signing at Costco went great again today. Met many followers of the series come in as well as new readers joining in.



The book was released last Saturday at “Henrys” and already some of the readers have finished reading the new book 4, The Angelic Occurrence and emailed me. Following is a comment i received this evening from LInda. She gave me permission to post her email:



“I can’t wait for the next book! OMGosh I couldn’t put it down – just like it was for the other three books of yours in this series. When I got to the the end the squeeling started, my husband looks up and says WHAT I said I need the other book now!!!!!!! He chuckled, I told him how it left me with oh no, now what. I have really enjoyed this series and excited for book five, so when is out? Tomorrow I hope hahahha. Please let me know when it hits the stands, love them. You have a way of keeping us interested and the fact that it is in our province with things of similarity to us is awesome. Thank you Linda”

Thanks to all who came out to the signing today and look forward to seeing you tomorrow at Costco again!
