Daingerfield local hosts book signing

Daingerfield native Vernetta Castleberry hosted a book signing at New Birth Baptist Church in Lone Star on Saturday. Castleberry has published several books on Amazon, her two most popular ones being ‘Love Doesn’t have to Hurt - Learn to Love Again’ and ‘Sis, Stop Sleeping; It’s only an Illusion’. Both books feature in-depth discussions about the trauma of painful relationships, healing from abuse, and self-love.

Several friends and family of Castleberry stood at a podium to speak proudly about her accomplishments as a published author. When Castleberry herself stood up to speak, she said, “These words, my pain was not just for me. It was for everybody. God wanted me to heal someone by writing these books. You ain’t gotta deal with it by yourself. Let us love one another.”

Besides the book signing, there were several skits to bring up discussion about some of the books’ topics, a lunch, and worship.
