Hi Rachael,
Mine is here: http://cathleentownsend.com/2016/03/08/mei-li/. It’s a straight historical fiction–western is probably the best category for it. 🙂

EEKS! I don’t really like that you are sick. Ironically, my daughter just came home sick from winter camp with our church youth group. I have a feeling I’ll be getting it since moms tend to cuddle their sick babies, which is how you got it. haha but not haha, ’cause it’s not nice to laugh at sick people. 😉 FEEL BETTER!
