It's in the wild! I've been thinking about this book for 6 years, and today, at last, it's out. It's a story about change, and how we cope with change, and how we think about our future. There's a lot of hope in it, and really, at heart, it's a love story. I hope you enjoy it 🐺 tinyurl.com/yu7y5jn4
