GREAT NEWS—I have officially secured an editor for my second book!!!
I am so excited (yet nervous) about this upcoming release. It is my first fully fictional novel and I cannot wait to share it with the world. It will be released mid-2025 with more details to follow!With all that being said, now I have more time to dedicate to my blog and community.

Within TCM, it is believed that there are five elements attuned to the different seasons in conjunction with our organ harmony: Wood (Spring), Fire (Summer), Earth (Late Summer), Metal (Fall/Autumn), and Water (Winter). In this blog we will focus on the Metal element in relation to the upcoming Fall/Autumn season. -
