Turning My Dream Into Reality
I have always wanted to write children’s books since my early adult years but life took different turns until now. Life’s path came around, the time was right, GG entered my life and inspired me to write and take that “Leap of Faith” to publish the manuscripts. At this time, two manuscripts are published and I look forward to being blessed to publish more. I believe reading GG Life Lesson Storybook Services ® helps others along their daily life journeys.
