Doing a happy dance!There’s a new review of “Took You So Long” posted on Goodreads. “Finding books written by someone you know in real life is exciting. Finding well written, thoughtfully crafted short stories that fully capture the landscapes and small towns in our part of the world is amazing. Reading these stories instantly transported me to rural Waterloo Region and surrounding areas in such detail that I could practically taste these stories and smell the newly plowed earth.”ADD YOUR REVIEW HERE: www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/58846395PUBLISHED by Porcupine’s Quill. ...
