With Love & Gratitude

Nothing I’ve created has come from me alone.

Every whispered idea, every book, every bookmark has been shaped by the steady love of those around me. To my family—thank you for seeing me, believing in me, and holding space for my creativity even when I couldn’t always explain the vision. Your encouragement has been a soft landing and a silent push forward.

The Whispered Word exists because of your love—quiet, unwavering, and powerful.
