This is My Story, This is My Song

"This is My Story, This is My Song is Sheila's debut autobiography of a select time in life. It took a little over two years to submit to the publisher even though she wrote the majority of it in January 2014. There was much of it that she still had yet to experience. She states, ""I write like I talk, and I am not always grammatically or politically correct. No one intends to have to write about grief and loss, but life happens, and sometimes you need to share your testimony in order to encourage and comfort others.""

Sheila currently lives near Carmi, Illinois, a small Southern Illinois rural community nestled near the Little Wabash River. She has been married for twenty-seven years to Joe Turrentine of Norris City, Illinois. They have three children, Emilie Jo (forever eighteen), Peyton Wade, and daughter Samantha Reigh, (""daughter of my heart""). Sheila and her family attend Crossroads Bible Church in Norris City, Illinois.

Through her writing Sheila wants her faith in Jesus to show foremost and to give thanks to God for His guidance and for the words to share her family's experiences."
