Hope’s Writing Journey
The messy, magical middle of becoming an author.
This is where I document the behind-the-scenes process of writing Chasing the Sunset — from moments of flow to bouts of writer’s block, unexpected breakthroughs, and the real-life stories that shaped the fictional ones.
I also share reflections on creativity, purpose, and navigating life as a multi-passionate dreamer who wants to make a difference.
If you’re looking for encouragement, process talk, and reminders that you’re not alone in the mess — you’re in the right place.

Acknowledgements for My Debut Novel-Chasing the Sunset
There were many false starts with this novel, where I put it down, and let it rest. But being able to persist and finally join the world of indie authors with a finished product has been a labor of love. I wouldn’t have been able to do it without the many cheerleaders by my side.
