Thank you so much to all the bloggers who have come together to not only contribute fabulous posts celebrating William Wellman, but who also have made my very first blogathon a greater success than I could have imagined!
I’ve already seen some Wellman posts on my feed, so looks to be off to a good start. I’m immersed in A STAR IS BORN and hope to have my post up in a day or two.
