Pour a cuppa and stay awhile.
Very Slowly, and then All At Once
I now have an empty nest. Plus, news about my upcoming book launch for Every Bell that Rings and how to get your hands on a review copy.
Through the Fire

This Train Track Goes Both Ways
Taking a moment to look back at how far I’ve come before looking to the immediate future again.

Between my son leaving for college, buying a new house, shifts in careers, and some difficult health-related news, it’s been a challenging few months. But I’m holding on to gratitude. Here’s what’s been going on.
Random Wordings
Updates on my brain state, what I’ve been up to with writing, knitting, and more, Patreon, author life, and a giveaway for my readers.
