Read a Book, Save a Life
Incredible story!
Today’s story did not happen to me. In fact, I wasn’t even alive when it happened. But it did happen to a woman I know, a friend of my sister’s actually. And every time I hear this story, I get goosebumps.
Rita* was a little girl who loved to read. She had four younger siblings and her dad worked out of town a lot, so when he was gone, Rita was expected to help her mom with the housework and the kids.

PEGGY (P.S.) BARTLETT
Reviews are so important.
I try not to beg too much for them but without them, my books will fall into an abyss of other books and I just can’t let that happen. I want to be a full-time writer my friends.

Life’s Not About A Job– It’s About Purpose
Have you ever really sat down to think about your life, your purpose, your “element”, and then realize that frankly, your job or career path is not in-line with any of them?
