Nothing makes us prouder than hearing directly from our authors about their publishing journey. Today we’re thrilled to share this heartfelt testimonial:

“A heartfelt ‘Thank You!’ to the Palmetto Team of Cassie, Erin, and Brenna who helped bring our manuscript to life. ‘I Hope You Know’ could not have turned out more beautifully with its quality, its layout and illustrations, and we are live on hundreds of retail platforms. Early reviews and feedback from purchasers to retailers on the book have been over the moon! Not only is this book exactly as we envisioned it many years ago, its sales will support the mission of our new 501(c)(3) foundation, ‘Rooted,’ which donates funds to ovarian and fallopian tube cancer research at Memorial Sloan Kettering. We are planning a book signing event at The Town Book Store in Westfield, NJ in the fall and hope to see you all there!”

We are incredibly honored to have played a part in bringing this powerful story to life — and proud to help our authors make a difference. 📖✨
