Spring Equinox Soiree
So, What Happened at the Soiree??? Third in a series of quarterly gatherings based on being together. It didn’t rain, yay! I figured out too late that when you put an event on FB, you have to “invite” people. I laugh at myself. Is there, please, a...

Mimi has written an awesome book. I learned about kudzu! Interesting characters, excellent language reflecting time and place, sharp sentences. Wish I had been as smart as Mattie, the main character, when I was younger! My heart was truly invested through the entire story. Thank you, Mimi for your hard work to bring this to us!
