About me

Gender Female
Occupation Common Man's Historian & Mom volunteer
Location Vancouver, Washington, United States
Introduction I grew up an avid fan of The Great Brain books. During my teens, my mom and I hunted for Papa Married a Mormon, we had no luck. Not until the internet came along, did my desire to read the book become fulfilled. These books were the impetus for my first literary research project. This project was life renewing for me. I always dreamed of sharing my findings and research process with other fans. This blog and it's accompanying website are the answers of that desire. I hope you enjoy them.
