Hi all! I'm Vickie Smith, happily married to John Smith. Together we have a small publishing company (Ark Essentials) and ten kids. I help John with his writing and books. I personally work on My Quiet Dolls and now that my baby is 19 and almost flown the nest I've started writing as well. I have a lovely raspberry patch, and my house resembles the movie You Can't Take It With You starring Jimmy Stewart.
