Celebrate the Small Things-March 25, 2016

It's Friday!  Let's Celebrate the Small Things with Lexa Cain. Tonja Drecker and I are her co-hosts.

Celebrate the Small Things-March 11, 2016

It's Friday!  Let's Celebrate the Small Things with Lexa Cain!  Tonja Drecker and I are her co-hosts.



This week I'm celebrating getting the final edits for "Felix Was Here" turned in to the publisher.  It feels like a big accomplishment.
