Thanks for the visit, Julie. It's taken a lot of blood, sweat, and tears to get the ball rolling, but I'm so pleased to see my efforts pay off and the series begin to take off. Woot! Phew! I'm pooped! :) That's the life of a writer, baby.
ReplyDeleteHoly cow! I don't know what I've been missing here, but it looks AWESOME. I will try to be a better blogger.
