Host a Charleston Tarot Party! Tarot readings near Charleston are my bread & butter when I'm not writing. I also teach tarot classes in Hanahan!

    Today it pleases me to tell you about the small business that I launched in February after Hashimoto's forced me to retire from my career as a driver. I now offer event entertainment in Charleston, SC and across the surrounding tricounty area of the South Carolina lowcountry. I am a Charleston tarot teacher and Charleston tarot reader, offering Charleston tarot classes, Charleston tarot parties, and Charleston private tarot readings!

I do require that you book at least three days in advance. A deposit is due at booking! I will contact you within 48 hours to confirm details, finalize the contract, and collect payment.

So I sat down and wrote the first draft, and then I cried because I had finally done it, finally written a children's book as I'd always dreamt of doing--and finally found my voice.     Writing the book was the easy part.
