I received my book proof today from my printer. I’m in love with it! I’m walking around the house with it in my hands because it has been such a long road traveled, with ups and downs, and here it is in my hands. Next step is to send in my signed approval sheet and I will have 300 copies mailed to me by Thanksgiving (hopefully). I am now going to begin planning my book tour. I will be taking it on the road to Searcy, Arkansas where I was raised and family lives. Then I will go to Mobile, Alabama and the surrounding areas where I was born and my birth family lives finishing up with some book signing events where I live in Florida. I’m beyond excited and look forward to talking to some small bookstores and locally owned businesses that might want to feature me. As I’ve said before, if I never sell one book it was all worth it. The process was incredibly cathartic and has led me on this unforeseen path. I’ve met so many wonderful people along the way and I think I have found yet another purpose in my life. This is a passion for me and I won’t stop. “We can’t stop” – Miley Cyrus
