Author’s Note
Glass Walls is truly a love letter to all of the lovers. Writing the book allowed me to make sense of what love is and what it could be. Moreover, it was a reflection of how love of self and love of others can look and evolve as we age, but also as we experience a bit more of life’s lessons that it has yet to teach us.
I loved writing about the innocence of young love. Which to me, carries a purity before we learn who society tries to tell us to be. I felt a deep sense of clarity as I worked to infuse my own experiences of young love throughout the book.
I also loved writing about the evolution of mature love. The ability to experience life’s twists and turns with someone, while developing a deep sense of self throughout that journey. I was enamored with the realization of how meaningful those experiences can be in creating an intimate relationship with another person.
My prayer is for you to reflect on how your own life experiences have shaped the way you love. I hope it reminds you of how magical the evolution of love can be. But above all, I pray you recognize how deeply loved you are.
