Actually, the title Humility and Little Stone Buddha, it kind of, there's some kind of like link to it.

Anyway, Alvina, we took a week off.

How are you doing?

I mean, I had a great vacation.

Of course, I had an incredible editor experience.

Alvina Ling, who edited all of the Land Story series and all my books so far.

And I had an incredible manager and a publicity team that helped me promote the books and stuff.

But I feel like writing that book and just finishing the manuscript felt like something...

Uh, for those who don't remember, uh, our little segment of Tell Me About is when, um, one of us asks the other about a book that we've worked on, and, uh, we tell the kind of, uh, backstory behind it.

So Alvina, please tell me about A Book for Everyone by Haley and John Rocco.

And once again, I forgot to bring a copy to show.
