It really kind of hit me in a nice way when I saw the book title and my name on the certificate… 🙂
A Way With Words…

Forgot to Mention…
I’ve mentioned before that The Magician’s Doll is widely available through most retailers, but I forgot to mention that, in addition, the book is also available through Scribd and Oyster.
