Text Box: About Gloria Hander Lyons I’ve channeled 30 years of training and hands-on experience in the areas of art, interior decorating, crafting and event planning into writing creative how-to books, with 27 titles published so far. I also offer a collection of handmade fabric dolls and easy to sew fabric doll patterns. You can find them all listed on the Home page. I began my writing career designing original craft projects featured in magazines, such as Better Homes and Gardens, McCall’s, Country Handcrafts, and Crafts. Then I progressed to writing creative how-to books and started my own publishing company, Blue Sage Press, to produce them. Visit my new Blog to read about my latest projects and happenings. My books cover a wide range of topics including decorating your home, cooking, planning weddings and tea parties and crafting. I’ve also published a guide to share the information I’ve learned about self-publishing with all of you who long to be published authors but think it’s an impossible dream. It’s not! You can do it and my book: Self-Publishing On a Budget: A Do-It-All-Yourself Guide can show you how. Order or read more about it on the Self-Publishing page. You’ll also find helpful tips and self-publishing links there. I now offer Book Publishing and Website Design Services to help others get their book projects published or create their own websites.

All of them are eligible for Amazon’s free super-saver shipping with orders of $25.00 or more and include the “Search Inside” feature that allows you to read several of the book’s pages.
