I have two hopes for this blog:
1. To create a community of fellow readers, creatives, and aspiring authors. I will be posting monthly Book Club blogs in order to connect about books, make recommendations and have some fun.
2. To share progress about my authoring and writing in the hopes that it encourages even one person to pursue their dreams and "be fearless in the pursuit of what sets your soul on fire".

I am excited and feel immensely blessed to have you along for this journey.
