This is my favorite book.

I read it in the eighth grade, all 800 pages of religion and politics, r**e and lust. I walked around middle school hugging it to my chest like a shield, absorbing the story of Morgaine again and again. A priestess, and a normal girl. One who could See the changing future, though her knowledge could not protect her. It formed me, gave me my pathway to a pagan life and eventually to Avalon herself, and kept me cautious when I stood in the world of men. Because the story was true.

I see this story now.

I see the cries of women being belittled, ignored. Men thumping around fields of power, jockeying for place, ignoring the needs of the people. Once, the land had been their religion, too. Their goddess. But they turned from this womanly deity because to look her in the eye would have brought unbearable shame. So instead they turned to a masculine god who existed far away in the sky, whose words they could twist to suit their purpose. And they went forward, defiling the magic that had set them where they were, interested in nothing more than acquiring the goddess in pieces and draining her of life.

This is the story we are living. And we won’t like the way it ends.

Tell me a story that showed you the future, and how we could change the narrative.

This is your timeline cleanse.

We are now in the space between grieving and creating. We have to gather our energy back and remember our vision. If you don’t have one, get inspired. Because you have the power to decide the next chapter of your story.

Let go of what’s gone. You need all your strength for what’s coming. The birth of something new is imminent.

(PS - Dr. Bronner’s label is an easy first stop for envisioning a better world! Read that hippie goodness and remember that we can be better than this.)

Sisters, this is how we give our power away.

It wasn’t magic, or the universe, or an all-powerful being that brought your dreams to fruition. Those things may have given you opportunity, or ability. But YOU completed the task. YOU put in the time, the effort. The work. And every time women erase our work, we make it easier for the patriarchy to erase us entirely.

So whatever you accomplished, take credit. Loudly. You deserve it. And you pave the way for other women to own their greatness, too.

This week, the world fell apart for me.

Not to say that it won’t continue, or get worse, but I very clearly saw the break. The point of no return. And it was across so many facets of life at once that the stark reality of impending death was too much for many of us.

But we are still here.

And while we must continue to be present in this timeline, it is time to start considering the next one.

When one world falls, another takes it place. We decide. As individuals and as a society. We decide with our choices. We decide with our intentions. We decide with the way we live. Each of us has to do our part, but enough folks living the same dream makes a community. So I started one for my dream, and if it’s yours, let’s talk about it.

Billionaires will continue their quest for greed. Some will blindly follow. But for those waking up to the need for an aligned life, a smaller community, a corporate-free environment, and a central promise to steward the earth - we’re building sanctuary here. Welcome home.

I have two shrines on my living room wall. One is for the feminine, and one is for the masculine. And as I sit here, looking at the shrine for the life force that is supposed to be anchoring us in the present, holding us in safety, and acting as a container for the Ascension process, I find myself… Supremely disappointed.

And I know what someone will say. Not all men. But also, always men. The corporate greed that has run rampant over our earth is men. The power posturing that is causing wars and violence is men. The destruction of ecosystems in the name of laziness is men. They are the originators of these problems. And they are not part of any of the solutions. Leaving the feminine with no choice but to proceed forward without them.

I have a son. Someone asked me the other day what role models I have for my child. And I had to say that I don’t have any. I don’t know any men who are leading the way. And that means there are no men to lead him.

My new book features a male main character, which is something I did not want, ask for, or ever intend to see in one of my works. But now I wonder if there is a purpose behind the inspiration. Maybe men really need women to teach them how to be the best version of themselves.

So I see you, rainbow. I see the possibility and the light. It is not within the masculine, but above it. And he must be dragged up and into the light in order for him to see.

May he awaken before it is too late.

… I think maybe she needs a companion.

This month, we stopped streaming.

We said no more to the endless river of noise and light and the tiny, regular dopamine drip.

We said no more to the system that keeps you locked in front of a tiny box that you pour money into, over and over, to make sure you don’t have to feel anything.

We went backwards.

And it’s been GREAT.

After three episodes of a show, the DVD ends. We get up. We do something else. Yesterday my kids said they didn’t want to watch TV during their allotted screen time - they had better things to do.

They like checking the thrift store shelves like it’s Blockbuster. They had no idea we had binders of old discs, shows and movies they had never seen.

We still have the stories, the chance to zone out, to take a mental break. But we choose when it starts, and when it ends. One tiny step towards removing corporate power from our lives and saying -

This is enough.

Anyone else trying this experiment?

Does this mean I’m a bestselling author?

Why, yes it does!!!

2025 is going out on a win as my publisher report found me at NUMBER ONE in sales in Magical Realism!!! I have been dreaming of this moment for as long as I can remember. And I am so profoundly grateful.

Big thanks to all of my ARC readers, my reviewers, my partner bookstores, my book clubs, and everyone who has read or recommended SANCTUARY. I take none of this for granted, and I am so deeply appreciative of each of you. Thank you for helping me get here.

And there’s more on the way! But I’ll tell you about that next year. 😉 Goodbye 2025, and thanks for coming!
