Emotionally resonant stories about family, friendship, and the tragedies and joys of life

About

I’m a mom, wife, and novelist. Favorite non-book things include kid giggles, sleep, music, scented candles, dark chocolate, Southern Living, good friends, hot tea, and the beach.

Favorites

My absolute favorite book-adjacent things, including libraries, independent bookstores, and, of course, my favorite books!

Essays

Musings about life, parenting, and the human experience; book recommendations; and writing news! I can’t promise brilliance, but I can promise content that is thoughtful, vulnerable, raw, and authentic.

Esperance Creative

My mission is to facilitate the development of professional and aspiring professional creatives in a boutique, non-corporatized environment, and to engage meaningfully with social issues related to literacy.
