Meeting Dr. Stephen Porges and gifting him a copy of my book, When I Lay My Hands on My Heart: Healing Through Words and Color.

It's not every day I get to meet with one of the doctors who was doing ground breaking trauma research around the time I was misdiagnosed by the chief of child psychiatry at Children's Hospital National Medical Center in 1966: Frank Putnam, MD.

I won a signed copy in an author give-away I entered. Thrilled beyond words. Thank you

Into the mist

I have no idea who this lady is, but I sure do remember how she made me feel about 60 yea4s ago. Just look at that happy girl.

When you and your writing partner finish your 1st memoirs, taking a day off to acknowledge that accomplishment is a must-do. A walk, to bathe in the beauty of nature and have lunch by the river, made for a lovely celebration.

We both got a kick out of the name of the trail, laughing out loud at its appropriateness. Kim Vajta Murphy 's book, Unmothered, launches this June: https://kestrelhousepress.com/

My memoir, I Thought I was Going to Die, and Then I Didn't, is being published by She Writes Press in June of 2027. Stay tuned for all the hoopdala to come.

So happy to be here.

Attended my first author festival today in Suffolk VA. A great, fun learning experience.

I invite you to read a piece I authored that published today in The Virginian-Pilot and The Daily Press. The first in a series of articles designed to highlight major themes in my upcoming memoir, which will be published by She Writes Press.
