The publishing journey has its ups and downs, and today was one of those days where the path felt a little heavier than usual. So I opened the mood board I’ve been building and looked at the mock cover for Hearts Never Break.
And something lifted.
There’s something powerful about seeing your story take shape visually—even in a simple mockup. It reminded me why I started this book in the first place. The heart of it. The hope in it. The characters who refuse to let go.
It lifted my spirits in a way I didn’t expect.
This isn’t a final cover. It’s not an announcement. It’s just a small creative spark—a reminder that stories grow in layers, and sometimes the visual layer is the one that brings you back to life.
If you’re on your own creative journey, I hope you find your spark today too.
