A Southern woman from Mississippi, I am embarking on my debut novel—a heartfelt journey through the lives of three generations of resilient women: my mother, myself, and my daughter. Inspired by my own life, this story captures the essence of strength, love, and legacy within our family. For years, I've lived with a chronic illness, one that has shaped my daughter's perception of me as only a disabled mother. But there is so much more to who I am. This book is my way of showing her the vibrant, determined person I have always been, while reminding her of the unshakable lineage of strong women she comes from. At its core, this is a story of empowerment, connection, and the enduring strength passed from one generation to the next.
