Being a momma to F O U R (yes you read that right, four) kiddos, a mental health professional who specializes in crisis, a college student (honestly, I think I will always be in school), and a professional photographer (https://shquellebrownphotography.mypixieset.com/ if you're interested in my art), finding the time to sit down and continue to proof, edit, create poetry, gets limited. I find myself having to be extremely dedicated AND stern on time management. 

I have found myself some nights only being able to dedicate 15 minutes to book #3, some nights I am not able to dedicate any, and some nights I can dedicate a couple hours. Nevertheless, I never forget the amount of gratitude I have to every page read through eBook, every order printed and packaged, every event excited to have me, and every bookstore that sends their support or even houses my work.

I have felt so much gratitude in this process that regardless of time to edit book #3, I find the time to smile and warm my heart to my story being read. Although some of it is rooted in the pain I have felt, I know that it is being seen - maybe even helping others heal. 

So this is my thank you, to all near and far who take a moment to bet on me.

All my love,

Shay
