Thank you for hosting today. Readers, see the 5 star review here.
What do people remember most about you after meeting you for the first time?
Hi Tracie, What do people remember about me? I talk a lot. I move faster than they expect. I’m willing to argue. But I like most people and it shows.
Looks like a interesting book and I love the cover.
Thank you.. The cover was painted in acrylics by a local artist, Teresa Hanson. She has done all the books so far. I think her favorite cover is “Danger in Edinburgh”.
