Paper Thin Now Live on Amazon

The book is now live on Amazon and available to order in e-book or paperback format. A big thanks to my editor, Trinity Mcfadden, for all of her hard (and quick) work. And as always, thank you to all of my friends and family who have offered their continual support through this journey. I couldn’t have done it without you. ​

New (tentative) Release Date: April 8, 2019

I am excited to announce a new (tentative) release date of April 8, 2019.

After much prayer and discernment, I have decided to publish through Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP, formerly CreateSpace) rather than a traditional publisher. For a while I was completely against the idea of self-publishing. This was mainly due to misconceptions that I had about it. All I could picture was the route Mom took with her books – boxes upon boxes of inventory and her tediously packing and shipping each individual order. Don’t even get me started on the mess she had with her taxes at the end of the year.

But self-publishing doesn’t need to be like that. With KDP, I will retain full control of the book cover and content but books will be printed and shipped directly to readers through Amazon. It still involves more work on my part, Amazon doesn’t provide formatting or editing, but I am willing to take on that piece myself. I am currently working on final formatting of both the book content and the cover. After a careful online search I have hired a professional proofreader to make sure the book is free from any errors. Her deadline is March 10. I will get proofs printed shortly after and, if all goes well, will be shooting for a release date of April 8.

I will be posting more information and updates as I receive them. Thank you all for your patience and support.



Release Date on Hold​

Unfortunately, at this time the publication date which was scheduled for January 13 is being put on hold. After a great amount thought and discernment I have decided that the publishing company that accepted the manuscript originally is not a good fit for me and we have broken our contract. If you pre-ordered an electronic copy of the book and are not refunded within the next few weeks, please message me so I can get that taken care of.
​
In the meantime, stay tuned for more updates. I am disappointed in the setback, but this book is very important to me and I am not giving up on it.

Memoir Release Date: January 13, 2019

I’m typically a pretty private person, but recently I’ve felt called to do something out of my comfort zone. Many of you that knew me during my teenage years know that I struggled with mental illness. It started with the classic duo of depression and anxiety and then, when I was 16, my battle with an eating disorder began. It was also around that time that I started to journal. Though the physical signs of the illness quickly became apparent to those around me, the inner turmoil remained largely hidden. I was silent in therapy and silent with my friends and family, but in my journals I poured out my fears and frustrations.

Now, years later, I feel the time has come for me to share that struggle. In 2015 I began sorting through and compiling journal entries. At the beginning of this year I submitted the manuscript to a few publishing companies, It was accepted by one in August [publisher name removed] and will be released on January 13, 2019. You can pre-order electronic copies at half price by clicking "pre-order now" button below. I will post more information on physical copies soon. My hope is that for both individuals struggling with an eating disorder themselves and the people that love them, these journal entries might give insight into the illness. I strongly believe that it is only through a greater understanding that it can be overcome.

​Thank you to all who have supported me on this journey thus far. I strongly feel that the next chapter of this story is only beginning, and I’m excited to see what God has planned.​
