Molly Tony,
Thanks for finding me! I am a native Hoosier, though I've only been in Noblesville for the past four years. I think I'm here to stay!

I look forward to reading your book. I'm also going to recommend it to my dad, I think he will enjoy it as well.

I've never been to the Mystery Company bookstore, though this may be a good chance. There is a great local bookstore here in Noblesville, and although they focus on kid's books, they are willing to order anything for me.
Molly

Tony Hi Linda,

I'll remember you on September 18th! My twin boys just celebrated their 2nd birthday today. I am feeling much older than 38! But I'm loving every minute of life with them.

Thanks for adding me as a friend. Have a wonderful week.

Tony
