From the Author:
I am Robyn Spizman - author of When Words Matter Most.
After writing 64 books, I am dedicating to writing books that will make a difference in other people's lives. WHEN WORDS MATTER MOST has a special place in my heart since it taught me some of life's most meaningful lessons. I spoke to individuals throughout the country and asked them what words and deeds mattered most to them throughout their life. The greatest lessons came from the simple things people do for each other during happy times as well as times of sorrow.

Feedback from all over the country has indicated that this book can really impact your life. Whether you find yourself at a loss for words, desire creative ways to express yourself, desire innovative gifts to give others or want clever poems, sayings and quotes for every occasion...this book is for you! It's the one stop shop for words and deeds for all situations, holidays and life events.

While I learned so much from writing it that I share with my readers, here's a very small sampling of these important lessons. In the chapter on sorrow, individuals facing life's challenges and heartache encouraged others to reach out no matter what...even if you don't know what to say! Express your thoughts, don't procrastinate, don't miss an opportunity to tell someone you care about them, you're sorry. Even when words fail you, simply say you're sorry. In the event of a death, talk about the person's life and things you learned from them. In the event of an illness, little deeds like cleaning out someone's refrigerator, driving a carpool, the little things mattered most. In that chapter I give you words that people have saved for years that touched them deeply. They are yours for the taking.

So in the spirit of this book and true acts of kindness and heartfelt expression, I ask you to consider this! Call someone and tell them you love them, make up with an old friend or family member you've held a grudge with, thank someone you've meant to thank for being there...for helping you, inspiring you, for caring! The power of a kind deed (like the ones discovered in this book) will boomerang right back to you and bring you endless joy and the satisfacton of knowing you have made a difference.

And one last thought....my newest book THE PERFECT PRESENT: The Ultimate Gift Guide For Every Occasion will be out this coming September, 1998 with over 16 years of gift research. I'm ecstatic about this book because I believe that giving a perfect present creates timeless memories. I've found the most creative and meaningful gifts across America....the best 1-800 numbers, free catalogs, innovative gifts and where to find them.... you'll love it!

And hey....my warmest thanks for reading my books and joining me in my creative endeavors. I am eternally grateful for your time and consideration.

"Those who bring sunshine to the lives of others cannot keep it from themselves."--James M. Barrie

Best always for a life filled with those things that matter most. --- Robyn Freedman Spizman

PS - Thank you to the Reader from Philadelphia for your five star review. This did my heart good.
