every story begins somewhere.
mine begins at ROOTS, yours can begin here.
i wrote DEAR ME first as a conversation with myself.
25 love letters about where i’ve been, what i’ve carried, what i’ve loved, what i’ve lost, what i’ve had to release & the woman i’ve continued to become.
i originally thought these letters would live inside a book.
but something about that started to feel too fast.
i didn’t want someone to read my entire journey in one sitting.
some words deserve time.
so i took the book apart.
now it arrives one letter at a time.
my writing & my artwork live together inside each one.
i’m not sharing these letters because i think your story is the same as mine.
it probably isn’t.
i’m sharing them because sometimes we find pieces of ourselves in someone else’s honesty.
maybe one of my letters reminds you of something you’ve survived.
maybe it makes you think about someone you loved.
maybe it brings up something you thought you had forgotten.
maybe it has nothing to do with what i wrote at all & somehow takes you somewhere completely different.
that part belongs to you.
my letter is only the beginning of the conversation.
what you do with it after that is yours.
take your time.
linger longer.
25 love letters i wrote to myself.
the 26th is yours.
letters about where i’ve been.
what i’ve loved.
what i’ve lost.
what hurt.
what healed.
what i carried.
what i released.
& the woman i’ve continued to become.
i’m sharing them with you one at a time.
maybe you’ll find yourself somewhere inside them.
maybe my words will take you somewhere completely different.
either way, after you’ve read all 25 of mine, there will be one letter left.
letter 26 is yours.
-
no.
DEAR ME is meant to be experienced slowly.
one letter arrives each month.
-
at the beginning.
everyone starts with letter 01 / ROOTS.
-
a letter, a piece of art, an affirmation, something to reflect on, space to write back to yourself & an intentional handwritten touch from me.
the actual letter & artwork stay a surprise until you open your envelope.
-
no.
they’re my letters. my experiences. my story.
you don’t need to have lived what i’ve lived.
i just want you to pay attention to where my words take you.
-
no :)
i really want the envelope to be part of the experience.
no previews. no spoilers.
-
yes.
each piece is chosen to live with that specific letter.
-
$15/month.
we still need to figure out shipping & whether i build that into the $15 or have it separate.
-
yes. anytime.
-
ideally NO.
this is something i need your help figuring out on the backend.
for example, if someone received letters 01–06 & then had to cancel for a few months, i would love for them to come back & continue with letter 07.
i don’t want them starting over or skipping ahead.
-
not right now.
i want people to experience DEAR ME the way i intended it.
slowly,
maybe eventually there will be a complete collection, but i don’t want to launch that way.
-
you write letter 26.
that one was never mine to write.
-
