Perfectly Arranged Book Excerpt

“Hi, I’m Nicki Mayfield.” I extend my hand. “Heather asked me to come discuss my organizing services with you.”

The wealthy socialite gives me the once-over, keeping her perfectly manicured fingers affixed to the door.

I pull my hand back. “Is this not a good time?”

“Not really.” Ms. O’Connor wipes away the small bead of sweat that has formed along her hairline. “I’m not sure why Lucinda brought you back here, but—”

A loud wail erupts from the bathroom.

Spinning back toward the cry, Ms. O’Connor rushes back inside. “No, no, no! You bad little girl! Now look at what you’ve done!”

With my ear against the door, I listen to the rush of scrambling feet and high-pitched howling.

“Ms. O’Connor,” I say through the thick wood. “Do you need some help?”

“No, Princess, no!”

“Really, I’d be more than happy to assist,” I call out again, this time a little louder. “I’m not great with kids, but I can try.”

Ms. O’Connor yanks open the door. “Then get in here and help me.”

Following her, I search for the right words to assure her that potty training young children is a di cult process. But when I catch sight of the toilet, it’s not a toddler sitting on the seat.

I gasp. “What in the world?”

“I give up.” Ms. O’Connor throws her arms in the air. “I’ve tried for almost an hour to get Princess to potty in the toilet, but she’s stubborn.” “That—that’s a cat!” I jump back. “You’re potty training your cat?”

About the Author

“What do you want to be when you grow up?”

As a child, whenever anyone asked me that question, I always had 2 answers ready to offer: an author or a Wimbledon champion (that’s a tennis tournament, in case you didn’t know).

Although I never made it to a professional level of tennis stardom (or an amateur level for that matter; the best I could do was local tennis club play once or twice a week), I was able to realize my dream of becoming an author.

But it was a long time coming.

There were detours along the way – teaching elementary school, running children’s ministries, parenting and starting my own organizing business – as well as a few unexpected overseas adventures, but I finally put pencil to paper (yes, I’m old school) and used all my life experiences to write a story that I hoped would make a difference.

With the publication of my first book, Perfectly Arranged (Scrivenings Press, October 2021), I guess I’m finally grown up now and my dreams have come true.

However, now that I’ve reached adulthood I don’t plan on retiring. No, I think I’ll keep going … I have plenty of imaginary people and places to share with the world.
