The First Annual Natalie Acres Boot Scootin' Boogie Blog Tour!

Where to BeginA woman's life is hectic. Between family and career, it's often difficult to juggle day-to-day activities much less squeeze in something extra. As a writer, I often find myself in a crunch for time. My muse pulls one way and readers guide me in another direction altogether. Lately, I've discovered my muse shouldn't have a dog in the race. When readers ask for a certain book, the
