Drama-Free Holidays, Creative Goals & Next Adventures

From cozy, drama-free holidays to exciting upcoming travel adventures, here’s a quick update on what’s happening in this writer's corner of the world... and what’s ahead.

Hey friends, a quick update from me… things have been a little busy (in the best way), and it’s time for a check-in. Here’s a peek at what I’ve been up to!

First up, I’ve got a new travel sidekick: a sleek laptop carry-on backpack that was screaming at me from a Black Friday 60% off table.

We have built-in compression cubes, an external charger port (goodbye, dead batteries!), and a design I’m praying will survive the abuse I’m about to put it through without looking like it went a round and a half with Mike Tyson. I’ll report back after it braves its first airport test run. 🤞

Which is coming up soon, by the way. For more details on what’s next—including some exciting creative ventures and a long-awaited return to warmer shores—read on as a full subscriber.
