I had my first book signing on Saturday and it was all sorts of delightful! It was super amazing to have so many friends and supporters of Re’and stop by. Also the store gave me a free latte.

Quick update! I wanted to let you know that I’ve moved the content from victoriasramblings.com to this new site, victoriaeasterwilson.com.

It also relates in…
