Dalea’s Blog.
Step into a realm where storytelling, creativity, and soul meet.
On this blog, you’ll find behind-the-scenes insights from my books and movies—including The Christmas Witch, Lost in Time, and the ever-expanding Amberlight Valley universe. I share writing tips, character deep dives, world-building secrets, personal reflections on creativity and healing, and updates on film festival journeys and screenplay adaptations. Expect cozy magic, mythic themes, seasonal rituals, and musings on what it means to be a neurodivergent creative navigating life with heart.
Whether you’re a reader, writer, dreamer, or filmmaker, there’s a spark here for you.
