The book series of ‘ZONE’ has officially begun! What felt like a dream of mine the first time, now with my second book to my name, an accomplishment that was even more of a mountain to climb. With long nights and countless hours put towards what I hope to be an excellent sequel and continuation of the story. Following Mikus and his friends as they navigate a new zone, with more to discover about the world around them, and, each other. New friends, new threats, and risks that will challenge the team as they search for a way to protect the ones they love. ZONE MEVEDEK is now available on friesenpress.com, Amazon, Indigo, and Barnes and Noble #zone #bcauthor #newauthor #vancouverauthor #bcbooks

"When the Moonbeam Comes to Call" has recieved a gold medal for being one of the 'Outstanding Books of the Year" from the 2026 Moonbeam Children's Book Awards ( @moonbeamawards )! Thank you for this amazing award!

This book has been a love letter to our shared experiences of Canadian summers spent on the lake. A sparkling escape that immerses you in the magic of nature and childhood wonder.

Where will you be when the moonbeam comes to call?

A little library, a signed copy, and a message worth sharing. 💛

I tucked a copy of The Greatest Superpower into this little library, hoping it finds its way into the hands of a child who needs a reminder that kindness is a superpower, too.

And a little pinch-me moment: it’s already made the FriesenPress bestseller list! Thank you to everyone who has bought a copy, shared it, or read it with someone they love.

Every reader helps this message travel a little further. 📚

I am honoured to announce that Mom’s voice has continued to connect with people!

“Accepting 7:47” has placed in two categories at the 2026 Speak Up Talk Radio Firebird Book Awards! The book placed second in the grief category. It also won in their quirky category section as “most likely to make you cry”. May sound weird but I am really proud of that! As someone who has continually fought with being emotionally open, it feels like a declaration that I was able to get there.

I was very excited to take part in this platform for what may seem like an odd reason: the cost. All award programs have fees (generally) to cover administrative tasks, getting proper judges, shipping materials, etc. Stuff is not free so I am happy to oblige. This platform though gives all proceeds to a program they run that creates hand-sewn pillow cases full of goodies to women’s shelters, along with children’s books. What a great initiative!

I am so thankful for any recognition the book gets but helping another group in-need while furthering the original message is incredible!

Congratulations Mom! As per usual, you just can’t stop helping others💕.
