There's still time to register to hear me read, "Calling Me Home," alongside a whole group of wonderfully creative and brilliant people who also live with chronic illness. This event will be hosted on Zoom. A $10 donation is requested and appreciated. Registration link in the comments, so please register right now.

I'll be reading in the first half, tentatively, but please stay for the whole thing if you can. You won't want to miss any of it! I promise it will be an experience you won't soon forget.

Thanks for the support! Sign up, tune in, check out the art merch for sale. See you tomorrow!
