I think the writer name is not something a lot of people give great thought to, but perhaps they should.Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09160717876156540393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1450527233120751380.post-87362717852619977372014-04-11T07:41:47.742-05:002014-04-11T07:41:47.742-05:00I'm glad that Mom went with Gail Lee Martin, a...I'm glad that Mom went with Gail Lee Martin, as there's a huge author named Gail Martin already.
