Float with springtime winds

In honor of April being National Poetry Month, I have an exciting announcement regarding the poetry-themed literary journal I run! Starting in April, Ephemeral Elegies will be expanding to two poems weekly! Stay tuned for poems coming every Monday and Thursday, and feel free to head over to the site and subscribe for free to get poetry delivered directly to you twice a week.
Whether you’re a new, emerging, or established poet, we’d love to give you a chance at getting your work out into the world. Visit the Ephemeral Elegies Submission Page for more details about how you can be featured! This has been a huge labor of love over the years. I started this project at the start of 2020 with no idea about the upcoming pandemic and need for virtual catharsis. Through the years, we’ve grown and evolved, and it’s been so incredibly rewarding to connect with poets from all over the world.

It feels weird to type “2024” – the last year was a whirlwind of change and it’s hard to believe that 2023 is already over. I had a new book published, I got married, and I moved to a new state. I’m hoping that 2024 will be a year of acclimation and quiet growth instead of being another year of big things.
So, what do I have planned for the new year?
What are your goals for the new year? Feel free to share in the comment section!

It’s official! My new book Crooked – published by World Castle Publishing – is available for pre-order and will be released ONE WEEK from today on November 6th!
You can pre-order the kindle version here or the google play audiobook version here!
Interested in knowing more? Here’s the official description of this thriller: After hacker Vivienne Steele is caught by the FBI, she is given an ultimatum – go undercover to infiltrate a corrupt corporation or spend 15 years in jail. With nothing to lose, Vivienne accepts and is thrown into a world of lies and deception where the line between good and evil is constantly blurred. When a series of mysterious text messages threaten to expose her, she sets out to discover the truth for herself and finds that the life she ran away from years ago may not be as far away as she’d hoped.
Thanks so much for your support and consideration! I’m excited about this one – it’s a bit of a departure from my first book, but it was a lot of fun to write!

This has felt like the longest winter ever. The excitement of all the upcoming changes coming this summer are making the seasons pass so slowly. But while I wait, I’m trying to grow this spring by embracing my hobbies and spending lots of time finding emotional and mental renewal in the small, beautiful moments of life.
This is my new pet, Pearl the half moon betta fish. He keeps me company while I tend to my houseplants, draw, bake, and knit. It’s nice to have a little friend to take care of. Side note: if you have any tips on how to safely move a betta fish from Ohio to Missouri, please do let me know in the comment section because we’re brainstorming already!
