Looking Ahead to 2026

1–2 minutes

Hello everyone,
I hope you enjoyed the holidays and were able to spend meaningful time with family and friends. As we close out 2025 and step into 2026, I want to wish you all a Happy New Year.

For 2026, my main goal is to finish and publish my memoir, The Dreamer’s Trash Bag. I have completed the first full manuscript and am currently in the second round of editing. The next step will be returning the book to proofreaders for detailed, surgical edits to ensure it is fully ready for publication. This process will take about a month. Once it’s complete, I will make final revisions and begin the publishing process, including formatting for e-book, softcover, and hardcover editions, finalizing the book cover design, and securing ISBNs and barcodes.

I’m also excited to share that the official website for The Dreamer’s Trash Bag is now live and ready for you to explore. If you’re curious to learn more about the book and the journey behind it, please visit:

Wishing you a meaningful, hopeful, and productive year ahead.
