It's time to say goodbye to December and to the year 2013. I look fondly back at the year and count my blessings. My son turned 15, my daughter 13, I read 83 books and made my goal. I met lots of new authors, enjoyed family time and had many new experiences.
Join me in saying goodbye to December's author in the spotlight Jeffrey Pilcher.
