Some Things Are Ours
The first novel of the Our World series
Some connections survive time. Some survive distance. The hardest question is whether they can survive the truth.
Tom Mercer and Claire Bennett share a long history and a longer silence. When their lives cross again, what follows is a story of reunion and difficult choices, and of the distance between loving someone and holding on to them.
A novel about autonomy and moral complexity, about unfinished futures, and the quiet courage it takes to let love be free.

Some Things Are Ours.
An approved excerpt from the opening chapter will appear here.
Excerpts preserve the meaning of the original manuscript and use the novel's published character names.
Our World
Poems & Love Notes, Volume One
The poetry of memory, and the creative origin of the House.
Poems, poetic prose, reflections and letters about being seen, about trust, longing and distance, about home, shared experience and becoming. The work began with lived emotion, but it does not ask the reader to know its origin. The names disappear. What remains is recognition.
A public edition is being selected now. Until then, approved pieces live in the Library, each marked from Our World.
