Re: Domy Books
Thanks, y’all! Make sure to say hi @ Domy Houston
Looking forward to reading the book
being originally from new orleans and noticing something on the lj front page i had to take a look. I was hesitant at the fact that someone who is not from the southern areas affected would be doing something based on it however after reading a few of the posts I am eagerly looking forward to its release.
Re: Looking forward to reading the book
Thanks. I really think of this book as a collaboration between myself and my experiences as a Red Cross volunteer and of course the seven wonderful, generous souls who allowed me to document their experiences.
