Sarah – the file was moved when Good Bird redesigned its website. I’m in touch with Barbara to see if she will continue offering the free issue to my readers. I post the new link if/when it becomes available. Thanks for your patience.
P.s. I moderate comments. No need to post the same comment 4 times. 😉
Post updated with new link to free download.
I would love a free copy of your magazine.
Thanks.
