JEANIE’S BOOK CORNER

This website is about some of the writings and publications by author, JC “Jeanie” Cooke-Fredlund.  Ms. Fredlund began writing as a young child.  She continued to nurture this interest through the years, into her adulthood.  Being an introvert by nature, writing became an excellent vehicle for expressing many of her innermost thoughts and feelings.

• BAD RAP, published by Bookwhirl.com and also for sale at Amazon.com for example, demonstrates her deep love and compassion for animals (in this case, dogs.)  Upon meeting Dazie, the Pit Bull, Ms. Fredlund became gradually aware of just how wrong she could be.  Having believed all of the negative hype about Pit Bulls, she experienced a deep-seated fear of them.  However, Dazie’s love for her opened the door to a whole world of joyful realities and love-filled years to her.

(Ms. Fredlund is a graduate of the two-year program at The Animal Behavior College in     California.  She is a Certified Animal Behaviorist who guides her clients in the use of positive reinforcement training methods and interventions with their pets.  Her   professional dog training website can be found at:                                                                   http://www.WoofsNWagsDogTraining.com)

• SEASONS OF CHANGE published by Bookwhirl.com is a collection of many of her writings over the years including poetry and other of her compositions, many of which have been published by other news resources such as newspapers, books and online.
• Seasons of Change carries the reader along on the roller coaster ride of life’s emotional highs and lows.  The love of family, romantic love, love of nature, love for God and the pain of grief and loss are just a few areas Ms. Fredlund explores.  The topics of life and mortality are explored with imagination as well as with undeniable elements of truth.  Included are the areas of living with and surviving some of today’s most harsh realities.  Two of those realities are terrorism and every citizen’s most dreaded nightmare; the criminal who not only walks among us, but who lurks in-wait, in the shadows.
