This couple's story has helped so many. Thank you, Lynn Thorne for putting it in print.

"Who Am I If You're Not You?", the moving TRUE story of love's journey beyond gender, is alive on the small screen. @HeartThreads made a documentary on Jen and Marc's story of gender transition told from the partner's viewpoint. See their love story here https://t.co/IHHtmrgcPi

Nice, easy resource. I like the "Tranquility Tuesday" tag, too.

@CCPLVA What a great idea this is! Thank you.

Looking for a fun read? https://t.co/x0rcDr0Vip graciously suggests #tofetchascoundrel -- Book Two of the @MuttMysteries1 novella collections -- thanks, pet lovers! Dig deeper to see how this author group, this pet organization, and the #Verlander name is connected! ⚾️

@HeatherWeidner1 Yay! National Pet Day on April 11!

[Rosemary Shomaker @vaforestrose]

Thanks for supporting local authors! #RVA #animalwelfare

In the @MuttMysteries1 novellas, dogs help sleuths solve crimes. It's dog love that brought celebrity foreword writers Kathy and Richard Verlander to Mutt Mysteries. Their book The Shelter Gang and Their Secret Adventure shows shelter pets playing, you guessed it, baseball!

[Rosemary Shomaker @vaforestrose]

In their first book, Rocks Across the Pond (2013), Kathy and Richard Verlander share lessons learned and stories told from the family's journey from rural Virginia to Major League Baseball. Their family's journey always included pets! #dogsoftwitter #dogs #RVA

[Rosemary Shomaker @vaforestrose]

Dogs to the rescue in these cozy novellas! See what one reviewer, @lilly_amy, thinks of #tofetchascoundrel. Amy featured us on her blog, AND her "Books in Style" review hit newsstands recently in Chesapeake Style Magazine (https://t.co/8pUZ8aVeoi).

[Amy Lilly @lilly_amy]

To kick off Mystery Prose, I'm chatting with the amateur sleuths in the newest Mutt Mysteries titled To Fetch a Scoundrel. The second book in the series features four stories by Virginia authors, Heather Weidner, Jayne Ormerand, Rosemary Shomaker, #am https://t.co/Twjze0UoD1
