This week on From the Front Porch, we have a special new episode series for you: From The Bookshelf Files! Have you ever wondered about The Bookshelf's origin story? You're in luck! In volume one of From the Bookshelf Files, our super creative Community Manager and visionary responsible for the concept of the "From the Bookshelf Files" podcast series, Felicia Dilbert, interviews Annie about how she came to own The Bookshelf and what it's like to run this small, mighty business. If you have a Bookshelf business-related question you'd like Annie to explore in a future episode of From The Bookshelf Files, send an email to [email protected] your copies of Beautiful Healing Vol. 1: Seven Love Letters for the Truth Seeker's Soul and The Beautiful Healing Journal, written by our very own Bestselling Author, Creative Director, and Community Manager, Felicia Dilbert. To contact Felicia, she can be reached at [email protected]
