Inside the Pages - A Story Worth Passing On

Hello Insiders,
This morning, a new episode of The Journey Inside went live:
“I Was the Other Kid.” It’s a story about the child on the outside. The one we notice… but don’t always understand.
A Quiet Way You Can Help This Story Travel
There’s something about a book finding its way into a library that just feels right. It’s where stories are discovered… and quietly passed from one reader to another.
I’m grateful to share that In Jake’s Shoes is now available for libraries to order through apps like OverDrive and Hoopla.
If your local library doesn’t have it yet, you can request it.
👉 Reader requests matter. One request can help a story find its place—and its next reader.
👉 And if your library brings it in, checking it out early makes a difference.
Stories like this don’t spread through noise…they spread through people. And I’m grateful you’re part of that.
A Voice Beyond the Page
Right now, In Jake’s Shoes is in the hands of an audiobook narrator.
Not just reading it—but interpreting it.
Every pause, every inflection, every quiet moment… is a choice.
And in those choices, the story begins to take on a new life beyond the page. I’m looking forward to sharing more with you soon.
If You Feel Moved
If you’ve started In Jake’s Shoes—or when you do—one small favor makes a big difference:
A quick rating or short review on Amazon helps other readers find the story. Even one sentence is enough. Something as simple as:
“Just started this and already pulled in.” or “Looking forward to where this story goes.”
👉 That’s it. No pressure. Just whenever you’re ready.
What You'll See The Week
Over the next few days, I’ll be sharing a few short moments connected to this episode:
Most Kids Notice — April 14
An Unlikely Friend — April 16

Each one is small. But they tend to stay.
