The words we're told to swallow

And They Say It’s Easy explores life, relationships, trauma and the weight behind words that can be so easy to say. In my debut novel, I turn toward difficult feelings, inviting you to pause and look beyond the surface.

"Some stories are harder to tell than others."

"Healing is not the absence of pain — it is learning to carry it differently."
