Hello all! I am thrilled to say that I will be joining a crew of amazing writers for this year’s Listen To Your Mother show in Seattle. We will all be reading stories about motherhood and a portion of ticket sales will go toward The Greater Seattle’s Bureau of Fearless Ideas. Please join us on Saturday, May 7th at 1:30pm at Town Hall in Seattle. It should be a fantastic show!

Awwww shucks, mom. Thank you. Love you!
Stephanie, I am so excited for you being a part of “Listen to Your Mother.” And simply delighted that I got to post something RIGHT BEHIND YOUR OWN DEAR MOTHER!! Truly an honor. If I can swing it, I will see if I can attend. Keep doing what you are doing, girl! You are so gifted and talented! Marian
Thank you Marian! I am still alive, can you believe it? I haven’t had a lot to say lately but I’m still here and still plugging away. Hope you are well. Do let me know if you’ll be there on the 7th!
Oh, I will! Keeping my fingers crossed!!
Stephanie! It was so nice to meet you and your wonderful family today! (And your Mom! How cool is that??) I love that it was a surprise for your Mom to fly out – and with this being Mother’s Day Weekend!! You did a wonderful job doing your reading. Actually, ALL the ladies were outstanding. I was so impressed, and entertained! What a wonderful group of people attended today. So glad I attended, and got to meet you in person! You are truly as special in person, as you are in your writing style! (That’s a double compliment there!) I was so glad to meet your boys. Emmett is a sweetheart – and I spoke ever so briefly with your older son and your husband. This was a great day! Take care, and happy Mother’s Day to you and your wonderful Mom! Marian Millett
Hello Marian! I am so grateful that we were able to meet. You are a ray of sunshine. As always, thanks for your sweet words. They really mean a lot to me. Also, thank you so much for coming on Saturday. I am so glad you enjoyed it. It was a really magical day for me. Thanks for sharing it with me and with everyone else who was there! Hope you had a great Mother’s Day. Take care.
Hey Stephanie! I had a wonderful day with my ‘two boys’, as I am sure you did, too! My sons spoiled me rotten, and I loved it! All you wrote above, right back at you! Take good care always – and keep on writing, girl!
