Hi, I'm Jes ... … a perpetual blusher (not shy, just painfully awkward), and a habitual coffee mug breaker. I’m quiet but goofy, or so I’ve been told, and like to think my slight wit and low-key sarcasm even out my giggly nervous side.

I’m a big fan of Rebecca Serle and Penny Reid, adore the power of a simple quote delivered in very few words, and wish I could speak as openly as I write.
