Becoming a Warrior

TUCK AND PATTI

Tuck and Patti wrote the song Love Warriors that inspired the title of my book and they played the 2004 National Marriage Equality Rally in Washington, DC for free. They are huge marriage equality supporters! Here’s my happy photo, as one friend said, a love sandwich with me in the middle! ———————————————————————-
