Like many, I started writing as soon as I was old enough to form letters into words. I made up my own stories, just like the ones in the books my parents read to me, and made construction paper books illustrated with crayon drawings and held together with yarn. I started a blog back in 2023 because I wanted to start calling myself a writer again, after that passion had fallen a bit by the wayside while my children were babies.
Now I've decided to finally tackle the thing I've wanted to do since I was making those crayon-and-yarn books: I'm writing my first novel. (Wish me luck. And perseverance.)
In the meantime, browse my blog for personal essays about life, motherhood, and marriage, and to follow along as I experiment with film photography. I'm glad you stopped by; I'm happy to have you here!
