When a friend asked what type of book I wanted to read, I admitted I hadn't found it yet. "Then write it," he said. Years later, I did. I'm grateful he pushed me toward that blank page.
Why Read The Colors of Home?
Read if you need to feel less alone.
Read if you need to understand experiences different from your own.
Read if you're tired of Christian fiction that pretends life is tidy.
Read if you want to see Black women, disabled children, biracial families centered in literature.
Read if you're ready for a story that doesn't wrap up neatly but feels true anyway.
Or don't read it. That's okay too.
This story isn't for everyone. It's messy. It's hard.
But if you're the person who needs it—if you're barely holding on, if you're invisible, if you're surviving impossible things—then this story is for you.
And I hope it helps you feel a little less alone.
I hope it reminds you that survival counts.
I hope it tells you: Keep going. You matter. Your story matters.
Because you do. And it does.
Launch date is February 9th, 2026
