Coming Soon - The Re-release of No One to Wash Her Hair

As Jackson listens to his great-grandmother Muner recount the enduring love she shared with Papa, he begins to find his own sense of comfort and connection in the presence of Karen Evans. Though he struggles with self-doubt and wonders if he can ever live up to Papa’s legacy, his growing relationship with Karen begins to mirror the romance that once defined his family. Set against the charm of Mississippi and the strength of the Boyd family, this is a story that proves faith and family can carry you through anything. Love can come at any moment and last a lifetime.

The
vision

I just like to write and always have. Whether it’s fiction or nonfiction, I’m drawn to stories that feel real. I write about what it means to learn, to struggle, to grow and hopefully to connect with someone who sees themselves in the words.
