He Put My Buddha in the Freezer (2020)
Biggest literary influences:
I love all types of books, but lately, I’m really obsessed and inspired by memoir. I love authors who are brave enough to share their personal stories and authentic voices. It reminds me that each of us is on our own unique journey yet none of us is ever alone because of the universal truths each of our journey’s share. I also believe it is through the powerful stories so many bravely share that we all rise.

Elizabeth Bennet in Pride and Prejudice: a strong, independent woman before her time. I must admit, I love Mr. Darcy too! I always thought “Where’s my Darcy?” should be a t-shirt. Do guys like that even exist today?
