Brian Reisinger recently published a book entitled Land Rich, Cash Poor in which he shares his own experience as a farmer's son and the struggles of farming communities across rural America.

I love Meg Shaffer's novel, The Wishing Game, and it was such fun to connect with her and hear more about her new book, The Lost Story, which was just released a month ago.

Dr. Matthew S. Stanford, CEO of the Hope and Healing Center & Institute in Houston, Texas, received his PhD in behavioral neuroscience at Baylor University.
