Burrill states, “I enjoyed talking about my experience regarding publishing my first children’s book.  I encouraged the attendees to start keeping a journal and jot down some memories they have.  All too often people leave this world without sharing part of their life no one ever knew about.  Whether it be funny stories from the past or a bit of history if you or someone you knew served in the military.  Write it down and share it.  Even if you don’t publish your writings, your journal will be cherished by your heirs.”

Congratulations on your accomplishment, Jo Anne!
