Hello Readers,

Dan Antion recently read and then reviewed This Is How We Grow.
Dan said, “I highly recommend this book!”
Dan combined his review with his post for Linda G. Hill’s One-Liner Wednesday, which included some wonderful photos of summer blooms, wild mushrooms, and an amazing photo of a flag in the sunset and with a reflection in front of it (coolest photo I have seen in a while).

I have a first done, years ago. I started editing, but then it became too much when I started the blog. I’ve been waiting for a couple of books to become available (and in my price range) before ever thinking of finishing it.
Thanks so much for your interest, Yvette.
