It happened! Oh my goodness, it happened for me! Thank you People for doing this exclusive cover and excerpt reveal for The Ladies Hall. I’m overwhelmed with gratitude.

I was stunned when my publisher told me that People wanted the exclusive for the excerpt reveal of something this little girl from Crown Point had written. But it was true! It really was true and I’m over the moon. The article is so well done... please click the link in the comment section or my bio to read the excerpt then make sure you pre-order this book about 3 phenomenal women whose shoulders we stand on.

Please share and invite your friends to check out my new book.
