“Hey everyone, I just wanted to give you a quick update. I made it through surgery and am on the mend! Feeling a little sore but grateful for the support and encouragement from all of you. I’m already itching to get back to my projects—writing is my therapy, and the stories are still rolling around in my head, waiting to be put to paper. Planning to dive back in tomorrow and keep the momentum going with Cold Case Chronicles: Beneath the Surface and Beneath the Autumn Dream. Your kind words mean the world to me, and I couldn’t do this without such a fantastic community cheering me on. Here’s to healing up quickly and getting back to the adventures we’re building together! Stay tuned; more updates are on the way.”
