Dear Readers and Followers,

Writing is hard. Sometimes life gets in the way. These past few years, since publishing Kissing Frogs in 2023, have been an emotional rollercoaster.

If you follow my blog, you’ll know I was diagnosed with a genetic condition, then degenerative arthritis in my spine, and then a (minor) heart murmur all within a few months of
