But, literally, there’s more to it than that. I grew up hearing this saying. I’ve lived it. So, let […]
What do you think about when you hear the phrase ‘Daddy’s Girl’? Do you visualize a princess in pink taffeta twirling before her beaming father? Or a little girl, hands encased in pristine white gloves, serving pretend tea in a tiny plastic teacup while her daddy balances on a chair so small he’s in serious […]

The story… On October 8th, I was at a local festival selling my books. I’ve had a booth at Sebastopolooza every […]
