My book beginnings is taken from TRAVELING LIGHT by Lynne Branard:
"The only thing I remember about Mama was how she was always moving. Years before the small tumor grew, the mania finally linked to the cancer in her brain, Mama never stopped moving. I think it wore Daddy out, but I loved it.
I have been sick this entire week and unfortunately haven't had a chance to read one page of this book.

Feel better soon, Elizabeth. The Jackson book pub date sure got moved back! Glad you loved it!
ReplyDeleteI know about the date. So strange.

It was VERY good.
