The Other Side of My Bed

The house is quieter, the bed is bigger, and everyone else has gone back to their lives. This journal sits with you in the part nobody sees: sixty days of short readings and honest questions for the woman grieving her husband. The missing, the remembering, the things you never got to say, and the slow learning to carry him with you. No hurrying, no stages to pass, no pressure to be okay. The love stays. Now titled The Other Side of My Bed. In paperback or hardcover on Amazon, or as a fillable digital edition on Payhip and Etsy.
