The Scribe Really Works

"...in my eyes, it was a huge success. Business has been steadily picking up and becoming more consistent. Without a doubt the feature played some role in that. I'm so grateful for the opportunity to be featured in the Scribe! I love what you two are doing, it's fantastic for the city and the folks in it."
