Showcase Recap
Saturday, I shared a table at the Garland public library’s author showcase. I prepped/planned for it for more than a week, ordering goodies at the last minute and even making some of my own. This is what I brought: Even with only one book under my belt, my half of the table was packed with…

Huge Thank You
Words are not enough to convey how grateful I am for all of the support I’ve received upon the release of my book. That’s so weird to say. “My book.” It’s real. Yes, I’ve held it in my hands for several weeks now, but it still didn’t feel real because I was the only person…

Debut
This is it! My debut as a contributing author. A story I helped write, A Fool for You, out in the world for others to read and surrounded by the stories of other (real!) authors. I’ve had a few friends read our story and the response has been positive. I’ve been told it brings tears…
