A Note from the Author

Friendship is always worthy of its own stories.

I wanted to write stories about the quiet, everyday parts of life—the moments that matter most, not because of what we're doing, but because of who we share them with.

A muffin.

A drive.

A trip.

Ordinary things on their own.

Extraordinary things with a friend.

I hope you'll enjoy spending time in Pinewood Hollow with Benny and Ike as much as I have.

They'd be happy to meet you.
