Hello Dawn, I’m so happy to have found your website. I’ve been reading your book, Baby Shoes and I’m almost finished. It’s an outstanding story. So brilliantly written and full of real emotion. It’s the kind of book I search for. I found it in a charity shop, in Cornwall, U.K. where I live. I have a book proof version. I’m excited to read more of your books. You are such an inspiration to me with my own writing projects. Sorry this is all one paragraph, but I’m rubbish with technology and don’t want to mess up anything by beginning a new paragraph. Thank you so much for your wonderful book. Best wishes to you. Jane
