As the sleigh bells ring all around Wilson County, Wilson Living is working hard to put the finishing touches on the first issue of 2012. It’s hard to believe that the New Year is right around the corner. That being said, enjoy the last few weeks of 2011. Make lasting memories with friends and family instead of staying so busy making everyone else happy. Easier said than done, right?

This time last year our first book was released. Well because of the response from that book, we will be releasing our 2^nd book, a follow-up to the 1^st. This next book will offer humor as well as tug on your heartstrings. Look for it closer to Valentine’s Day! In the meantime, if you’re looking for the perfect gift for a teacher, friend, sister, brother, wife or are you just looking for a good life to get you’re through the holidays, pick up a copy of Telling Tales: Kids, husbands, careers… It can be a ‘mother’ of a tale today. ‘Tales’ is a compilation of some of our most popular columns featured in the Wilson Post every Wednesday. Books are available for purchase at The Paper Mill in Lebanon, Dot and Stells in Mt Juliet, www.amazon.com, www.barnesandnoble.com, www.wilsonlivingmagazine.com  or call 615-969-6751 to order signed copies.

Now that the January issue will be ‘in the can’ soon, the wedding issue is right around the corner. The Wedding Issue is one of our most popular issues. Not only do you get to see all the latest fashions and trends within the bridal market, this year we’ll feature the hottest prom fashion! For the second time we’ll also show you the Bachelors of Wilson County. We need your help on this one. If you know of someone who would be a perfect bachelor, email us his information to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .
