I learned a lot from that class though.<BR/><BR/>tiffanyak1986(at)hotmail(dot)comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1155374563273721268.post-5652392580918053642009-03-09T18:24:00.000-05:002009-03-09T18:24:00.000-05:00I'm a follower.bridget3420(at)yahoo(dot)comI'm a follower.<BR/><BR/>bridget3420(at)yahoo(dot)comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03070426155040395096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1155374563273721268.post-17424237834584446612009-03-09T18:23:00.000-05:002009-03-09T18:23:00.000-05:00That's cool that the author did one book, then a s...That's cool that the author did one book, then a second book with different characters and then they come together in the third.
