Shannon has always been a patriot at heart –at the age of 12 she won a writing contest on “What the Constitution Means to Me” She decided to join the military out of high school but medical complications sidelined her efforts. Never one to back down on a goal.
Shannon looked for new ways to support service members and veterans.
The Books By Vets project was founded as a way to introduce writing as therapy for veterans, as well as an opportunity to bring veterans and their families together to share their stories of service with the world.
