An Answer To The Question, What About Me?
Feb 22
Hello Chonilla Nation!
It's your girl Janice.
If it had not been for these three words what about me? Author Janice O’Reilly may not have ventured outside the box. The word “me” would catapult her into creating a series of books that are not only personalized but uniquely illustrated to answer that very question. Like most ideas, it started with a thought. To O’Reilly, this thought was such a-ha moment that she felt the need to capture the emotion of it within a storyline and make it into a book for her first grandchild. So, along with friend and illustrator Laura Conrad they created the first book titled “A Gift That Will Last Forever and Ever”.
Once the storyline was shared and the emotion of it duplicated, there seemed to be a wonderful dilemma, said O’Reilly. Friends and colleges wanted to order the book but our families were not all alike. I kept hearing accolades that would end with what about me? Another aha moment has created a series of books that are customized not only by name, but illustrated by ethnicity and lifestyles as well. www.Namleyme.comoffers a unique idea created to celebrate the diversity within all of us. Always expanding on the idea what about me a new INTER-RACIAL series has just been added to the family fold at www.Namelyme.com. My favorite personalized book order to-date came from a new grandmother living in the United Kingdom as a gift to her Caucasian daughter and African American partner living in West Virginia, who recently gave birth to her first grandchild, said O’Reilly. We have an illustrated book for her family! It’s all about diversity, because that’s who we all are.
Another word for diversity is “variety” and a variety of families are truly offered here. Custom personalized books are illustrated for Asian American, African American, Caucasian, Inter-Racial, Latino (English or Spanish) LGBT and Middle Eastern families, with options for adoption, birth and twins. Each book sells for $29.95 plus shipping with gift certificates available online.
