Where have I been, you might ask?
A long time ago, in a land not so far away…

Alright, not quite. Though I do love a good daydream and a wandering mind. I think it makes me a good storyteller.

In truth, I’ve been tucked away in the last minute details of editing, formatting pages, and tending to the small, unseen details that prepare a story for a successful launch. The kind of work that feels a lot like waiting through a long Pacific Northwest winter: quiet, steady, and hopeful.

Today, that waiting ends.

I’m grateful for the patience and persistence this season required of me, and for the gentle reminders along the way that the timing is in God’s more than capable hands. Many many times, I threw my own up and said, “okay, I can’t. But You can. Help me, please.”

This story has been shaped with prayer, perseverance, and trust—and now it’s ready to be shared.

Thank you for being here, for reading, and for walking this journey with me.
Merry Christmas!
