I am an author that hates talking about herself in the third person. Apparently that is what you are supposed to do for your 'about author' blurb. I would rather just not. Here goes my not third person spiel.

I am your plain everyday girl nothing different or too exciting.I enjoy writing silly 'about me' things even though most of my books are not silly. In fact They tend to be downright serious.

I have done some college but nothing that really helps me sound like I could be a better writer. Which kind of sucks. How about we just pretend that I have like a big time deal degree in creative writing. That is a thing right?

I have no kids, but I do enjoy sitting on them occasionally. Just kidding, well kind of. I do nanny, but I don't sit on the

Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson

Those who have read my novel Recovering is an Art, are probably not surprised to know that I am a huge fan of Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson. I have read this book many times over throughout the years and I still find myself loving it. Speak is a powerful novel which delves into the profound silence that can shroud the survivors of trauma. We follow Melinda Sordino as she navigates her way through

Quotes by Astrid Lee Miles  (?)

“No. Depression is the unseen, unheard, silent killer. It is the pain that is too much to cope with, too hard to deal with and never understood. It is something that you can’t escape, no matter how hard you try it ALWAYS swallows you again. It constantly follows you around, like black smoke choking you from the inside out. Like a lion clawing at your heart and mind, eating pieces of you until there is nothing left.”
Astrid Lee Miles, Recovering is an Art

“I feel lost and confused, but happy and certain. I am like a ball of tangled yarn. The parts that are untangled are available, useable; the rest is a mess, useless until it is untied. That mess feels endless and at most times unyielding.”
Astrid Lee Miles, Recovering is an Art

“Is it possible that “love hurts” is the biggest lie out there. Perhaps love heals, it makes people whole again.”
Astrid Lee Miles, Recovering is an Art

“If a person reads a good book—they become permanently changed. They can’t even help it. They can’t unlearn what they’ve learned. It will always be with them.”
Loretta Lost, Clarity

“Books are medicine for the soul. They heal the eternal parts of a person.”
Loretta Lost, Clarity

“Never say anything about someone which, if called to testify, you are unable to repeat to the person's hearing or the hearing of the person's close friend. This will save you a lot of trouble in life.”
Chikamso Efobi

“You will always be your greatest obstacle to succeed. The day you start truly believing in yourself, you will break that obstacle down.”
Ana Elise Meyer

“People are only worth what their responsibilities make them”
Lincoln Cole, Ripples Through Time
