Letters to the West Is Now Live on Substack

For the past few years I’ve been working quietly on a book called Letters to the West — a project born from small, private stories that people trusted me with during some of the hardest moments of their lives. A student. A translator. A neighbour who lowered her voice when she talked about home. A family who crossed a border at night simply to breathe without fear.

Those stories became the heart of the manuscript I’m now preparing to send to agents.

As I move into this next stage, I’ve opened a Substack where I’ll be sharing occasional letters, reflections, and pieces of the journey as the book takes its final form.

This is where the ongoing writing will live.

If the themes of courage, freedom, dignity, and the fragile strength of the West matter to you, I’d be honoured to have you reading along.
