It’s almost here! Isn’t the sage green gorgeous? 💚 Thank you to Loni Townsend for that amazing cover art. And to Allie Potts for creating the lovely 3D image.
Coming soon to a theatre near you: Volume 2 of The Shadows We Breathe.
I, once again, had the privilege of working with seven talented authors. Some seasoned flashers and few new faces this time around.
The second anthology in this series will be out this fall. (Yes, I know it’s fall right now. Which means… Watch. This. Space.)
Thank you to the authors who contributed their beautiful words to this collection of poignant stories. 🖤

So… Are we talking those gorgeous pastel-colored French cake-cookies or the shredded coconut mashed into light brown “cookies”?

my nose is turning up at the mere suggestion I meant anything other than the cake-cookies.
