First Look at Book #3 + Big Blog News!
Dear Friend,
I hope you’re all doing well! For those with kids heading back to school — I hope their first day was filled with excitement, curiosity, and maybe just a few happy tears (from the kids or you!).
Blog Launch – Twice a Month!
I’m excited to share that starting this month, my blog will be published on the 10th and 20th of every month!
This is where I’ll dive deeper into topics that don’t quite fit into social media posts or these newsletters — behind-the-scenes stories, creative inspiration, lessons learned, and more.
If there’s a topic you’d love for me to explore, hit reply and let me know! I want this to be a conversation, not just a broadcast.
A Sneak Peek at Book #3
The third book in the On the Farm collection is coming along beautifully!
Rosina, my illustrator, has been sending me early illustrations — and they are breathtaking.
I’d love to hear what you think!
Here’s your first look at one of the new pages:
An Inspiring Conversation
At a recent vendor event, a gentleman came up to my booth and asked if I’m solely an author. I told him, “That’s the dream, and I’m working toward it every day.”
He said, “That must be scary — taking a leap into a completely different field.”
I smiled and replied, “You know what’s scarier? Staying in a job that doesn’t call to me anymore. Scarier is looking up 10 years from now, realizing I’m in the exact same place, and wondering what my life could have been — and the lives I might have touched — if I’d followed my dream.”
It reminded me that sometimes the biggest risks are the ones we don’t take.

Thank you for your incredible support — it means the world to me. Wishing you a fantastic rest of your August!
With gratitude and imagination,
A. B. Wade
