The Humboldt County Writers 2025 Anthology: Earth is available in eBook format! Physical copies will be available soon.
I have a piece in this anthology titled I Left a Patch of Thistle. My prose is very dear to my heart, and I hope the readers enjoy. It has been great fun learning and writing alongside these fellow authors. Below is a link to the ebook:

& Here is an end of 2025 update:
I severely tore a tendon in my right wrist leaving me unable to use it at all for 3 weeks. It is still not able to fully bend without pain and my strength has not fully returned either. Notwithstanding, I was able to wrap up the final edits on my novel. I have begun illustrating the chapter art. I am four chapters in and very excited. To cut down on cost for producing chapter books, the chapter art will be black and white. I am doing pen and ink. Back in my artsy days, I was more of a painter/ pastel gal. Prior to my wrist injury I was brushing the dust of my drawing skills while still editing, and the juggle caused me a lot of apprehension. I am pretty happy with how my illustrations have emerged.
