Jesse Hanson Dear Caroline,
Thanks much for including me among your Goodreads friends. It looks like your working very hard as a writer and I wish you much success.
Should you find the time and if you have an interest in spirituality, I would ask you to consider my spiritual allegory, Song of George: Portrait of an Unlikely Holy Man for your reading list. It's fiction but is inspired by events from my life.
Namaste, jesse


Cheryl Landmark Thanks for the friend request, Caroline.
