Cover Reveal: Lights to Guide Me Home

This is a heart-in-throat kind of announcement for me as an author because it feels like the best day ever and the height of vulnerability all at once. I humbly present to you the cover of LIGHTS TO GUIDE ME HOME (Sept. ‘22) ✨ — the results of the hard work of the team at Rocky Mountain Books (a particular nod to designer Lara Minja), who were wonderfully collaborative with me as the author. I don’t take that lightly!

Oh, and extra amazing news is that the book is now available for PRE-ORDER!

In my newsletter, I provided some background on the cover. Here’s an excerpt: “When you read the book, you'll discover how the book got its title. But for now, I'll say that stars, and metaphors built around navigation and wayfinding concepts, comprise the book's ultimate throughline. This book is about what happens when you step off the beaten track and how you find your way. It's about outdoor adventures and travels around the world and the inner journey that corresponds with the outward one. It's also about the meaning of home. I wanted a cover that would reflect the feeling one gets when reading it and the themes that were important to highlight.”

And... spoiler, the fabulous Caroline Van Hemert, author of The Sun is a Compass, has written the foreword!

Thanks to everyone who provided feedback on the mock-ups. 🙏🏻 And thanks to all of you for joining me on this journey thus far.

It’s been a wild ride and it isn’t over!
