Samantha's Journey With Personal Chapters

Samantha connected with Personal Chapters through the recommendation of her agriculture communications friend, Author Mace Thornton. She emailed her children's book manuscript to Personal Chapters Publishing, and Anne Spry gave her some editing suggestions.
