Review: Waiting to Be Heard

Review: Waiting to Be Heard

First and foremost, I would like to note that I checked out Waiting to Be Heard from the library.  I did not buy or receive a free copy, but I did read the book. Why the disclaimer?  Because anything negative said about Waiting to Be Heard (particularly on Amazon) gets bombarded with accusations and automatically […]
