After years of navigating family secrets, chronic illness, and the quiet claustrophobia of a life that didn’t fit, Soul-Happy: A Viking Woman’s Long Road Home is officially available.
This book is a testament to the fact that “grace is no accident.” It is the result of a hard-won commitment to truth, even when that truth felt life-threatening.
The journey to this moment wasn’t just about writing the words—it was about finding a way to share them that didn’t feel like another “net.” In a recent feature for Books by Women, I opened up about why I walked away from the traditional publishing game to find a home in the hybrid world. I realized that after pouring my heart into these pages, I couldn’t leave the final decisions in the hands of others. I needed to breathe.
As I shared in the article:
“Where was the joy, the thrill, the healthy pride about this book I’d poured my heart into? This was not what my writing career was about, I thought. I realized then that traditional publishing was not right for me... I wanted to work with a team well-versed in the industry... while I retained control.”
Choosing this path was about reclaiming my power—the same power I write about in the book.
To those of you who have followed this journey from the beginning: thank you. To those just joining the circle: welcome. I hope this story helps you find your own “golden incandescence.”
The “cover story” ends today. The truth begins now.
With gratitude,
Anette
