Deep Rooted Wisdom Reviews
Y’all don’t need to read this. It’s just plain tacky, but a PR person told me I needed to do it. Therefore, for the sake of “link love”, which apparently means you stroke my back and I’ll stroke yours in the social media world, here are all the places that Deep Rooted Wisdom has some “online real estate”, which means somebody said something about it on the web.

I’ll try to keep this updated. And I wish I could include everyone who’s helped promote, given me photos to share, and, of course, stories to tell. But for now, I’ll just include this sweet picture of Tom who does all the behind-the-scenes work, including shipping a bunch of books.
