Autorenporträt
Vanessa Siemens is a writer, tap dancer, and road tripper who never thought she'd write a book about grief-until life gave her no other option. Born and based in Canada, she brings a blend of honesty, humour, and hope to everything she creates. When she's not writing in her favorite corner of a coffee shop, she's likely adventuring with her dog Esmay, planning the next tap performance, or having deep conversations over strong coffee. This is her first book-a love letter to loss, healing, and the winding road in between.
