  3. Welcome Samantha. Wow over a 100 books. That is impressive. It must be fun married to a writer, too. Although, I can see that could have some funny moments.

    1. Thank you. My husband wasn't a writer until recently when God decided to change his employment. He was a UPS driver for over 20 years, and an injury to his elbow that caused nerve damage forced him into early retirement. That's when I encouraged him to start putting down the many stories he would tell to make me laugh down on the page and make them books. God gave him a second chance career. He has a real calling for writing children's books, and it is a lot of fun brain-storming stories with him. The best part is, he's very supportive of the hours I spend writing :)
