Love, Gramma will be free on Kindle from Saturday, July 24th and Sunday, July 25th. Feel free to download a copy for your own reading pleasure, or send to a grandchild or young adult family member who might be interested in some advice on how to maneuver into adulthood. I cover a lot of topics, […]
Reaching Kindle Vella on Amazon
It seems like the Vella roll-out was a little bit quirky, at least for me. I found it a bit unclear with no directions on how to direct our readers to the Kindle Vella Store to find our stories, but I think it’s all good now. I’ve tested out a couple of links, copied them […]
