Four years ago, my husband and I were having date night, and we stopped by Barnes&Noble. He told me someday my book would be on their shelves. I thought he was being sweet but unrealistic. Today, that store agreed to buy a few of my books to carry.💖 #writingcommunity #dream

I've been quiet this past week due to health issues, and I'm still going to be for a while. Little one ended up needing to come out last night in an emergency C-section. We're both stable, but she's in NICU. Any prayers and good thoughts would be appreciated.
