Then you will realize that you are not alone.  That everyone puts in work.  Carolyn

This blog is about the 'Business Behind The Book".  Find out ways to help others and don't be afraid to ask for help.  Support is a two way street.  My purpose for this blog is to create a 'Brick Of Friends' that support each other and promote each other.  Also, we find out what our supporters do and support them too.  Sherrie Brown the Author of Samantha: Time Travel was mo
