The first line of Beyond the Wind Music, my portal fantasy novel. This line seems simple enough, but is more important than you might realize. By the end of the book, the significance is clear. In fact, it’s closely connected to the very last line!

Trying something new on the blackboard in my room…

Poetry magnets!

It’s totally just for fun—a tiny way to express myself creatively without feeling like the words need to be perfect.

(The only downside is that now I’m tempted to spend money for more magnets like these.😆)

I’m a writer. Of course I’m researching North American cryptids that may or may not ever be used in my books.

Today is definitely a “writing feels like a chore” day. But I’ll blame that on the wind, because the way it keeps rattling our house is quite distracting. 😅
