It's Going to Be a Good Day!
For my A.K. Smith subscribers and fans: I'm Anita Kaltenbaugh, and this book is published under my real name, not my pen name. It's especially close to my heart.
What started as a Mother's Day gift became something much bigger. I began writing these stories for my mother—simple tales about finding meaning in everyday moments. But as I shared this idea, something beautiful happened: everyone had a story.
These aren't fiction. They're real stories from real people who found inspiration in unexpected places—a flat tire on a desert highway, a stranger's helping hand, a grandmother's hymn playing at just the right moment.
Volume One is just the beginning. Because in every ordinary moment, there's a story waiting to remind us: it's going to be a good day.
I hope you'll consider checking it out—it makes a special gift for anyone who could use a reminder that good days are always possible.


Anita's book is a breath of fresh air! A great short story collection full of positivity and hope. I can't wait to share it with everyone!
