Your Book is Published! Time to Relax? Think Again!

After ten years of researching, writing, resting, and repeating the process over and over, my book Guiding Missal was published. One of my crowning achievements as a human being and a writer was also one of the most difficult things I’d ever done. I had yet to find out that there was more hard work to come.

Hi back, I'm still trying to figure out how to navigate Goodreads. It's not easy. Have a great day!
