I have a bad habit of thinking about ALL of the ways I’m always falling short of my own ideals and what I think God and others think I need to be. It’s a constant battle for me to remember that God loves me as I am, and that nobody else really matters. (No offense!) […]

Happy Thirst-day, everyone! Eight years ago I wrote chapter one of the story that became Thirst. I was working on a dystopian story (which became Captives), but I was struggling to understand the storyworld I was trying to build. I needed an origins story.
