Last night, I had my first book launch for Cattail Lane, a burst of brilliance after the long and solitary months hunched over my keyboard. These celebrations are what help keep writers like me going—a reminder that all those quiet hours can lead to somewhere bright. Thank you, thank you.

My new novel, Cattail Lane, was just released: Rudderless Nick Ackerman’s life changes when he discovers he has a 14-year-old son—who also comes with a grandma with dementia. An exploration of forgiveness, second chances, and the everyday moments where we might find our way to one another. #booksky

I'm thrilled to learn that No Good Asking is trending on hoopla Digital. The story is about a family nearing its breaking point that takes in a troubled child over Christmas. Many thanks to all the libraries and patrons choosing my book this season.
