    It’s underwhelming to some degree, but also a great relief. A relief to have seen something through. A relief to have doubted but settled in belief—a belief that, to some other degree, this story could imprint upon hearts and minds.

    Your hearts and minds are the first to (hopefully) feel the intended effects of the novella printed here. Of entertainment and empathy, humor and wholeness, relatability and further reaching feelings.

    Thank you to those in the Pacific Northwest and Midwest who hold and read this book, support and inspire me, and who teach me in more ways than one.
