Review: Poetic Justice by Dan Antion and Willow Willers
Poetic Justice: A Rascal Todd Mystery Featuring Brody Thompson by Dan Antion My rating: 4 of 5 stars I’m sorry it took so long to get through this. It was the only book I was trying to actually read.

This house is 1600-1700’s approx. Tlalpan, Mexico City. Knock,…

I am so excited to hear that two of my good blogging friends and one who is a dear sister to me, Dan Antion and Willow Willers, have been collaborating and have co-authored a book! How exceptional is that? I had a quick catch-up with them both to find out how the process worked! How was it, coauthoring? Wasn’t it hard? Dan: The co-authoring experience is something I hoped would be an…
