It’s been a hot minute since I’ve written about my books, and I realized that next week is the FOUR year anniversary of Sink or Swim’s publication. I can’t believe it’s been that long! I might have to sit down and read it again and go down memory lane. Being an author is something I’ve

Good to be back! I took a bit of a longer hiatus than expected, but I wanted to make sure I talked about Mental Health Awareness while it’s still technically May.
