    • Funny you should ask. Ok, you didn’t ask, but you aren’t the first to regret no signed copy. In a day or two when the bookplates arrive (and I can tell they aren’t awful), I’ll post an option to email me your address and I’ll mail you a signed bookplate (for free!) that you can put in your book.

  • You got me at number 2. Actually I already ordered it—paperback—yesterday. I may have to go ahead and pay for the Kindle version so I can read immediately!

    • That’s the criminal in you, that is. 🙂 Thank you so much for ordering–you’ll recognize parts of it. If you want me to send you a signed bookplate, go to the Contact page and send me your address—I’ll get one in the mail. All the happiness to you, ellen
