Hey folks, well this week has flown by and the tour is over. Which means that Heard in Silence is officially out in the world! You can snag a copy on Amazon now! And not to sound like we’re bragging but the paperback copies are super cute! Like the cover, spine, and header images are so cute!
Okay, as Lillian Keith says, we digress. Well, she says I digress, but there are three of us so…you know.
And as a reminder all proceeds from this book will be donated to ASDC (American Society for Deaf Children)! So, you get a cool short story collection and families get the help they need to learn to communicate with their deaf children! Which makes it a pretty sweet deal for everyone!
