Booby and the Beast: Book

http://www.boobyandthebeast.com/p/book.html

I am in the process of writing a memoir about my experience with breast cancer. It will pull from the blog posts I've already written here, but also dig a little deeper into what I've learned over the past couple of years. My hope is that the book will a) get published and b) illustrate that there is good all around us, even when things seem especially bleak. Stay tuned. March 16, 2016 at 1:15 PM.
