Everything around me changed, every decision that I made had changed depending on us. Every choice I made began to be for us. Or so I thought. I wanted to be the person you'd wake up to every morning and go to sleep with every night. I assumed that when we had kids we would raise them together. Except maybe I was wrong. Or am I? Am I wrong? Were all of the decisions I made up until this moment for the best. Is everything going to be alright? Will I be okay? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hello! Yes, you there!

Beneath the smoke and silence of a Montana valley, fire is never just fire-it is memory, grief, and survival clawing at the human spirit. Shadows in the Vale pulls you into a world where sawyers carve scars through burning timber, where legends like Pulaski whisper from the ash, and where family is both the anchor and the ghost you cannot outrun. Every poem, story, and fragment is a confrontation: with the storm overhead, the embered past, and the question of what endures when the flames consume everything else. Part memoir, part myth, part survival testament, this is not just a book you read-it is a fireline you walk, daring you to find yourself in the smoke.
