Book Profile Name: I Was Just So Lonely

Current Status: Just launched and looking for a permanent spot on your nightstand.

The Vibe: Honest, slightly caffeinated, and very relatable.

About Me: I am a collection of moments about a woman named Lea. I talk about the reality of life in eastern North Carolina, the hum of a dishwasher in a quiet house, and the way a playlist can feel like a sanctuary.
