the quiet calendar Giveaway — 15 Winners Chosen From 3,000+ Readers

The giveaway ended last night, and I'm still processing the numbers: over 3,000 of you entered for a chance to win the quiet calendar.

I didn't expect that. Thank you.

To the 15 winners: Your signed, numbered, limited edition copies are being assembled this weekend and will ship early next week. Each package includes:

• A personalized welcome page with the QR code to the companion music album

• An advance preview of Careless Whispers (Book Two, Spring 2026)

• A handwritten note

• Extras to make the unboxing worth sharing

  
  

Congratulations. I hope the quiet finds you exactly when you need it.

To everyone who didn't win: You helped make this book real by showing up. If you still want to read it, use the QR code below for a discount. And stay tuned—there's a treasure hunt coming this fall when SHAME releases that rewards careful readers across the trilogy.

Thank you for taking a chance on an indie poet. Let's see where this goes together.
