Dear Oma Ross:
It was nothing but serendipitous stumbling on ALL I (Indie Authors) for which I thank my good
karma.
I have “self published” the following books with no profit in mind – just for the pure joy of it.
For The Love Of Shakespeare
Your Sense of Humor – Don’t Leave Home Without It
Mining My Own Life – This much I Remember and This Is How I Remember It.
Reminiscing in Tranquility of a Time Long Gone By.
I am presently working on the next.
Glad to make your acquaintance.
Happy Food-filled Fun Thanks Giving Day
Chandra
