Hey friends,
Many of you know I have been working on writing a book. I had no idea what that would entail when I started this journey. I’ve spent years combining ideas from my blogs with the narrative of my life to make a cohesive story. I’ve spent months building a “platform” and stretching myself in many uncomfortable but necessary ways.
Just two weeks ago I started sending out query letters to agents. One day after sending them out, I received an offer for representation. For those of you who don’t know what a literary agent does or is, I can relate. Again, I had no idea before this journey began. Basically, if you want to try your hand at traditional publishing, most mid-size to larger publishing houses require you to have an agent who then will submit your book to various editors/publishers. It’s a large gate that you must enter to be on the road to having your book published.
While I am so excited to be working with my agent, I know the road ahead is still long. I would love anyone’s prayers for just the right publisher to take on my work. Thanks everyone! I’ll keep you all updated on any more exciting news!

Congratulations Ashley! Praying for the journey🙏🏼
