Working on getting the edits and updates finished with my publisher. This has been a long process, from taking 7 years to finish my manuscript, and now working with my publisher to finalize the last edits!

Our apartment was on the first floor, but it was partially underground. So, the windows in our bedroom were very high up on the wall. While you were in bed you could look right out the window between where the window frame and blinds met without lifting your head off the pillow. That night that we were watching television ...

Providing an update on where things stand with having my book published.

Since then I have had a lot going on, and time has gotten away from me.  My manuscript has been sent to the publisher, and we are in the process of working together to make some edits and a few changes that will help things flow better within each chapter. My goal is to have my book ready to be available for purchase by late June, if possible.  When it is complete it will be available for purchase on Amazon and my website. I have listed my website at the top of the page for your review, should you have a desire to visit it now. The second link that is provided at the top of the page is my TikTok user name. I don't know a lot about TikTok, I'm learning as I go. My daughter-in-law suggested that I put the information about my book as well as my ongoing journey through leukemia, stem cell transplant, and graft vs. host disease on TikTok. She thought th...
