I've been writing since childhood, encouraged by my grandmother, who bought me a portable typewriter when I struggled in typing class. That little machine became my closest companion as I hid beneath the stairs, crafting stories about kids in a brave new world—the book that first sparked my imagination.

You’re Not Alone In the thick of caring for little ones, running on fumes, doing a hundred things at once, it’s easy to feel invisible, but you’re not alone. You wonder if anyone notices how hard you’re trying. And on the hard days, it can seem like everyone else has found a rhythm while you’re…

Perspective

Posted on June 7, 2025June 7, 2025 by ckdillon

Perspective Perspective is a quiet shift that changes everything, positive or negative. It’s easy for women to get caught in the quiet stress humming beneath the surface, with comparisons creeping in when we least expect them. Or maybe it is the overwhelming feeling of doing everything for everyone and still feeling like it’s never enough….
