My New Book is Finally Here
My poetry collection Beautiful and Brutal Things is done. It's actually done and finally published over 270 pages. Over a year of my life went into this book. More than a year, really. Long days at my computer, sometimes seven days a week because I couldn't stop even when I probably should have. Then two months of editing that felt harder than the writing itself. But it's finished, and I'm still standing, and the book is real.

The Other Woman in My Marriage Wasn’t a Stranger
When I first picked up "MY HUSBAND'S WIFE" book to read, I expected a dramatic story about betrayal and rivalry. The title suggests something bold and emotional, but what I found instead was a much more reflective and human narrative. This is not just a story about two women connected by one man. It is a story about how people understand themselves through love, memory, and comparison.
