About the Author(s)

Sandra Boswell says that "Watch your P's and Q's" frequently rang in her ears as a child when she gravitated towards disrespectful or unacceptable manners. She says, and I'm glad for it . . . we had an abundance of self-centered enthusiasm that required training in right directions.My parents insisted on polite civility, with which we children sometimes agreed and sometimes not. They persevered and prevailed. Now, years later, I'm grateful for their dedicated insistence." With more than thirty years as a protocol teacher, program director, and speaker, Sandra Boswell is convinced that the correct etiquette training is vital to strong character development and an aid to faithful living. Sandra holds a fine arts degree and has established an Arts and Protocol School program in the Pacific Northwest, where she currently resides with her husband.They have three sons, a lovely daughter-in-law, and five delightful grandchildren with another expected very soon.
