What am I doing?

Currently, I’m putting the finishing touches on Dealing With Smoke Vol. 5 and The Unseen Life series. The Unseen Life is a collection of 15-minute reads that give readers a glimpse into the lives of people caught between who they are and who they want to be. Each short story explores quiet struggles, hidden emotions, curiosity about what drives people to act, to hide, to love, or to break.
