How long have you been writing books?"My first published book, Sea Of Hope, was released in 2001. However, I've been writing for a long, long time. I started when I was nine. :^)
Thanks for adding this mystery & paranormal author, Penelope. Good to connect with you. I'm looking forward to reading your reviews.Kris

The Memoirs of JR Holden is unique, in part, due to the humble nature of this star athlete. And the story he tells is one of hope, inspiration, faith, courage, and belief.
TRULY INSPIRING !!
Thank you for befriending me, Penelope! I love your influences, especially Mary Stewart. She's the reason I wanted to be a writer!
