Thanks for stopping by to learn more about my stories from the heart. Please let me know how these are affecting you. My latest, Not in the Heart, has a main character with a major flaw. His name is Truman—and I believe we all have a Truman in our lives. The main point is not to give up on your Truman! And love your Truman well, even if it's tough love.
