Dear Diary! My most popular novella.
Louisiana in the 1940s was a tough time for many people of color! Slavery may have been over, but racism was still very much alive! Getting by as best you could with whatever you were given could be challenging! You’ll meet 11 years old Doris! She didn’t have much. But her imagination took her far!

a dramatic play-by-play of who sat with who at lunch and whether I was still mad about it. And for a long time, I thought that was what writing about my life was supposed to look like. So when I came back to journaling as an adult, I kept thinking, “Is this too boring? Too much? Not enough? Sho

Honcho has a love for blankets! This is just one picture of him tucked under! He loves taking naps under certain blankets more than others! One of my favorite summer memories is me taking a nap and he came and snuggled next to me. To my surprise I turned in my sleep and hear a tiny meow as he woke
