Thanks for sharing, John . I meant to put this writing conference on my list of things to attend if the budget allows. Unfortunately, this year is booked up but maybe next year. Have a great time.

Hi, John, thought I had your email, but being the technical twit that I am, I can’t find it. But I did find you this way!! Just by luck, I assure you.
John, I bought HEALER at the St Matthew’s Craft fair and after my Christmas readings and my Easter readings, I finally got to it. I cannot tell enough how much I enjoyed this book. Two points in particular…you know my work with orphan care, innocents who have done nothing to deserve this situation and, yet, know life can be better “if only” there was a family. So I was completely drawn in. Billy’s challenges echoed tidbits of conversations, or I should say, “statements” made by my granddaughter. Many tears often throughout the readings.
Billy asking God, “Now, God? Is this the person? What do you want me to do?” This young boy asked the same questions I ask. I’ve worked for the Sagarmatha Children’s Home since 2009 but the expenses are still there and adoptions are not open , and have not been open since 2010! When he would ask, I knew is confusion. Very poignant for me.
I have to add that when I pictured Billy, I did have your grandson in my mind’s eye. Thank you for the read, it was great! Thank you!
