I think I’m speaking for the great majority of us when I say that “2020 has been a pretty sucky year.” We’ve been stuck at home, some of us under quarantine, some of us have lost our jobs, graduates were not allowed to walk across the stage this year, weddings were put on hold, and sadly, many of our loved ones were taken away from us by the horrible coronavirus – many without loved ones by their side. I’ll repeat, “2020 has been a pretty sucky year,” but in spite of that, we’re going to continue living as best we can through the most trying of times.

I am so glad that so many authors are on the tour. It has been a real education visiting and learning about each person and their passion for writing. I too have won on this tour which I appreciate, but the best win is meeting more of RRBC one-on-one. Be safe and go vote.

Hi, Wanda. I visited your blog site today, but I cannot find any way to leave a comment. I shared it on Twitter. Folk music is a big genre that encompasses the entire US and beyond. How awesome that you’ve been involved in it for so long and how cool is it that your dad knew June Carter Cash!! Love it!
