Driving Miss Tina: My Journey With Tina Sloan
When soap opera legend, Tina Sloan, emailed me to let me know she was coming into town, I was ecstatic. You see, I interviewed the very charming and witty Ms. Sloan about a year ago during the release of her book, Changing Shoes, and she promised to let me know when she would be in [...]
