Synopsis

In order for you to understand me, you must understand the spirit of the hills and the spirit of the people that live in these hills. I grew up in the wonderful world of Appalachia. A place that is still isolated and remote from the rest of the world. Some people say that it is America's best kept secret and I would have to agree with them. The land of Appalachia is mostly rural. Oh, there are a few small cities (population 60,000 people or less), but overall it is still the same land that my grandparents and parents knew and the land I know now. It is a place where the hills stand tall and majestic overlooking the two lane roads that wind in and out of the hollows and small towns that are spread across the valley floors. A place where people still sit and talk about the weather and how it affects their crops and gardens. People also relate health problems to the weather. I can still hear my grandpa saying, "I can smell rain coming and my joints are starting to ache."

About the Author

Janet Rice was born and raised in the hills of Appalachia where she still resides. Her work as a fortune teller spans a period of thirty years. Her reputation for being an honorable and accurate reader has spread by word of mouth out of the hills into the Midwest, up the East Coast, and across the Heartland to the West Coast; thus creating a huge client base. Janet's career as a fortune teller has turned into a lifestyle and the passion of her life. Even though Janet travels extensively with her career, her heart is in the hills of Appalachia.
