I love collecting quotes!
If you’ve read the free eBooks that I’ve written and give away on our ADDer World Social Network then you’ve probably noticed that they are sprinkled with meaningful quotes. Every quote I select and where I place it is done with great care.
I’ve written nearly a dozen eBooks over the last several years, collecting thousands of quotes. In a series of blog posts I am going to share them all with you.
