2017 has been a lot of things to a lot of people. It’s been difficult and challenging, joyous and prosperous. 2017 encouraged people to reflect on who they are, who their family and friends are, and what they are willing to do to love, protect, and respect themselves and others.
It’s been scary and overwhelming at times. It’s been enlightening too.
I gave myself a chance this year, more so than any other time. I slowed down, I listened, I let people show me kindness and love. I connected with people.
I read incredible books and stories for which I am extremely thankful for.
This year I completed my first collection of short stories. Two Moons, a collection of transformation and possibility. I’m happy for this book’s coming. Release day is March 20th, 2018. Join me March 24th at the Raleigh LGBT Center for a reading. You can preorder Two Moons straight from the publisher here.
I hope you all have the opportunity to take a little time for yourselves this holiday season. You deserve it. I’ll see you in 2018.
Love and Light.
