I am proud and excited to be finally publishing my very first novel. This is really a dream come true for me. I feel successful already just for shaking off my lethargy and getting this done. As a teacher I was always making up stories to teach lessons, as well as just to tell a story for its own sake. Teaching kids in Brooklyn, NY also provided great material for my stories. I've always received a great response from the most honest people I know; kids. So, here I am, publishing my first book. A great place to be!ver menos
