I love that the Internet gives people who might never have considered writing a book the opportunity to do for a fairly low cost and fairly easily – it gives me plenty of extra work and occasionally a true diamond in the rough to be a part of. But so many authors seem obsessed with…

There likely never would have been a Twin Miracles Editorial without the fact that my wife and I are NICU parents – our twin daughters were born at 23 weeks, 5 days, and spent 4-1/2 and 5 months, respectively, in two different NICUs as their needs changed. If you are a parent with a child…
