A continuation of the story in His Promise True, with a blend of actual history and fiction. John David and Maggie McKellar are in the young Arkansas Territory, looking for a place they can settle and begin to build a home. This puts them in conflict with the western Cherokees, who have rights to the land through treaties with the U.S. government. A Permanent Home recounts that conflict, which ended with a new treaty that pushed the Cherokee into what eventually became Oklahoma.

Reader's Digest books have always fascinated me, especially old ones. However, they are not valued as much as other books. Many thrift stores tore the covers off and recycled the pages. This was due to the poor quality of the paper inside. However the quality of the covers of these old book was very good. I began rescuing the covers of these book. Eventually I began looking for ways to make journals out of them. I searched for different binding techniques to use. I came upon the "Coptic stitch" technique. After numerous false starts I finally understood it and began making journals. I have no idea how many I made and gave away, but it is definitely over 100. Three years ago I began selling my journals (and other items) at the Farmer's Market in Clarksville, AR.
