Updates, need help, and sad news when I signed in. :(

I have been MIA due to working hard at my neighbor's and daughter's shop as well as in the process of editing my first short story to combine with my second one (yes, the story I published was my second one, but I found my first one and thought I would combine them) and I got on here to update on what I was doing as well as looking for help for a situation. However, before I started this discussion, I looked at a suggested post where a mylotter friend found out he has cancer. I remember Writer (not her full username, but that is what I called her) and she died from cancer, except I didn't know it until years later. I am hoping to keep updated with this member, because I didn't like finding out about my friend so long after her death. Now back to my updates. I have created the cover photo for my new book and within a week or two, I hope to have it published not only on Smashwords, but also Amazon. So, anyone who is connected to my author, be on the lookout for the publishing date. I am also trying to help a friend who prints out bulletins for church, but her printer messed up. I told her if she sends it to me, that I would print it out for her until she gets hers fixed or a new one. However, this is where the problem is. She creates her bulletins on Publisher, I only have LibreOffice. According to my friend, when she clicks on pages 1 and 4, it prints out on one page, then she puts the paper in again to print pages 2 and 3 on the other side. When I tried this with LibreOffice, I got two separate pages and I'm sure there is a way to do this, but I am not sure how. I took a Bis class where I learned about Word 365, but we never went over creating a pamphlet like this, so I don't any idea where to start. Has anyone made pamphlets like this before and if so, am I able to take something from Publisher and use LibreOffice to make the same thing?

I know, I have been super busy, plus for a few weeks we lost our internet, so I could only get online on my phone. I miss everyone and glad I signed in when I did, because I would hate to come here and find out a member is gone without me ever communicating with him again. So, how are you doing? I hope to find a new post from you since the last time I was on.

@changjiangzhibin89 I'm glad you are doing well, you're one of the few who keep up with me when I haven't been around for a while, plus I've known you for years and the few times I am able to be active here, I am going to make sure you are too, whether you are posting or replying. I have lost too many friends without knowing it until much later.

@TiarasOceanView I forgot about Lakota, I was clearing out my email a few months ago and found some of her messages and Darkwing and Marcy sounds familiar. I can possibly find Darkwing in the search, but probably not Marcy, do you have her profile link?

It shouldn't be hard, I just need to know the steps, that is if I can using a different software.
