From a rural story of homecoming and self-acceptance, to a Northern love story that is not a romance, to a dystopian trilogy of hope for a broken world--my novels reflect my own place in the world. As you prepare for Christmas, check out my novels on acanoerofshorelines.com/

My blog is live on Anne’s Journal for Storytellers “My parents believed in MI and used TI to cultivate it. Their intelligence evolved the same way—it might not have been able to destroy humanity or write the Bible better, but it sure built character.” smithnochasak.substack.com/p…

Tomorrow my blog goes live on Anne’s Journal for Storytellers “My parents believed in MI and used TI to cultivate it. Their intelligence evolved the same way—it might not have been able to destroy humanity or write the Bible better, but it sure built character.”

Writing Taggak Journey was a personal journey of hope--in the most desperate and broken places of our world, I discovered characters who dared to rise from the ashes, to seize hope in both hands, to give everything to see their future born. I wrote to celebrate them.

Thanksgiving is almost here. I am grateful today to be alive, to be able to write freely, and to have family and friends. To breathe the air this day and see the light on the leaves. And grateful to you for reading this post!
