I used to think writing was about
answers.
Lately, I'm realizing it's more about
sitting with the questions-
the ones that don't resolve nicely,
the ones that linger longer than you
expect.
Those are usually the stories
worth telling.
Life is shorter than we ever think it is.
So I'm choosing to take the chances
when they come-
to keep writing, keep dreaming,
and keep putting words on the page.
Even if only one person ever reads
these stories, that will be enough
for me.
This story didn't start as a book.
It started as a feeling that wouldn't leave me alone.
Some characters are imagined.
Some are remembered.
And sometimes the remembered ones change you most.
I don't write stories to escape life.
I write them to survive
Every woman I put on the page carries pieces of my fear, my hope, my softness, my anger - the parts of me that leanred to stay standing even when life tried to fold me in half.
If you've ever felt too much, loved too hard, or held your world together quietly...you already belong in my stories.
Working on the website has been time consuming but I have created my image to refect what I hope you guys will see in my upcoming novel.
My debut novel, Back in Lawson County, is finally out in the world — and I’m still trying to catch my breath. Seeing it go live made my whole chest feel warm, like holding a spark that’s been waiting years to be seen. This story lived in my notes, drafts, and late-night brain spirals for so long, and now it’s real.
It’s only been out for a week, so everything still feels tender and new. No huge rush of sales or reviews yet — just quiet beginnings and the soft, stubborn pride of finally taking the leap. I’m still growing my audience, still figuring out how to promote, still learning what this version of author life looks like for me. But there’s something beautiful about starting small and honest.
If you’d like to explore Back in Lawson County, you can head over to the Bookshelf page — everything you need is waiting there.
And in the background, I’ve already started sketching the bones of my next secret project. It’s early and hush-hush, still foggy around the edges, but something is definitely stirring. I can’t wait for the day I get to share what’s coming next.
