What to Expect

Think of this space as a working notebook, equal parts story-in-progress and coastal miscellany.

Here’s how it will flow:

  • Draft Notes — small, spoiler-safe lines lifted straight from scenes.
  • Field Notes — photos from research days: boats, porches, tides, and whatever else insists on being noticed.
  • Currents & Playlists — the books carrying me through and the music keeping me company.
  • NC Roots — the places and histories shaping this story.

And because no process is ever just one thing, expect a smattering (not a plethora) of non-spammy, non-sponsored bits and bobs that make me hit save, forward, love, put it in the cart, text, screenshot, bookmark, I must attempt to bake that, cook that, plant that seed and grow that, and/or hibernate in a very specific rabbit hole until I need a shovel to reemerge? 

If you’re a fellow process nerd (same), consider this your dockside seat. You get the concept.
