Brenda Woods, The Blossoming Universe of Violet Diamond

“Whenever possible, you gotta try to see the goings-on of life through more eyes than just your own, because that can help you see things more clearly.”
Brenda woods, The Unsung Hero of Birdsong, USA

“No sense in chasing something that doesn't want to be caught" -Poppy”
Brenda Woods, The Blossoming Universe of Violet Diamond
