Just a quick announcement today.....
I would start out by saying how proud I am of Joni-Dee and Denise. Their book, “The Nuts and Bolts of Nantucket Basket Weaving”, is now available, inscribed, directly from the authors and is also live on Amazon.com and the CreateSpace Store!
As I have written before, this book was published with help from the awesome team at CreateSpace.com. We highly recommend them to other budding authors out there.
The description for the book reads,
