What a tender exhale for Grace. I love how you offer her this through small details, all implicit and felt. She deserved this chapter, this leaning into Ned and the spaciousness he creates for her. Now if only she’d move in and get a daily dose of that!
I just read this while sitting in the yard watching for swallowtails. I have seen a few. Then it popped into my head that you said you have a connection with them, with your parents. Thought you'd like the synchronicity of that. Team Grace checking in. Love love love. As usual.
And this just fills me with joy: "Yes, the world can feel heavy. But here, we practice returning — to awe, to joy, to the profound beauty still available to us."
I’m so relieved there’s a Ned in your story Julie, I do hope Grace is listening to all the signals !
Beautifully written again, dialogue and details - I loved the conversation with the eagle 🦅
Susie, I love to see what’s piquing your interest in this. Thank you for your notes!

Awww! You have a great memory. Can’t wait to catch up soon. 🥰
Excellent writing Julie! This is the first chapter I've read... now I "have to" go start at the beginning ✨️
Welcome aboard! Thanks for being here.
The tension and aliveness of this is fantastic. I'm right there with them!
Thanks, Nia. I’m happy you’re enjoying it.
Gripping!!!!

Yay!! This makes my heart glad!! 💚
I'm clutching my chest in the same way I feel Grace might be with an attack. Realization hurts, decisions to be made. Winning, the science fair ...
Thanks for being here, Stacy.
