I had such a lovely afternoon with my first book club who invited me to discuss my novel, โCloser to Indigo.โ We gathered in a cozy, Christmas-decorated living room, surrounded by the gentle presence of four cats and a dog who decided to join in the fun.
The conversation flowed as we shared our thoughts on crystals, self-care, workplace challenges, ghosts, nature, photography, purple as a favourite colour, emotional Pisces, having Ukrainian roots and even our dreams for the future.
This conversation wasnโt just about me or my book โ it gave me the chance to hear other peopleโs life stories as well. It was about sharing all of our stories.
One moment that stood out was connecting with someone who had a challenging start in life but radiated such a compassionate and caring heart.
Our talk reminded me that storytelling is more than just words on a pageโitโs about creating spaces where we can connect, heal, find common ground and make new friends.
Writing โCloser to Indigoโ has opened doors to conversations I would never have had otherwise and I feel so grateful for these moments of connection, especially in todayโs crazy world. Sharing our stories truly is one of the most powerful things we can do. ๐๐
To anyone wondering if your story mattersโit does. Live it, Write it, Tell it. You never know who it might touch and inspire.
Message me if you have a story to tell!
