Prayers for the Weary & the Willing is a collection of simple, honest prayers, for ourselves and for the people we love. These prayers were written in the everyday moments where faith so often collides with struggle. Some are for the days when I needed strength just to get through. Others are for the people I carry in my heart; the neighbor, the friend, the family member I can’t quite reach but refuse to stop praying for. We all need a place to turn when we’re tired, when we’re hurting, or when we simply don’t know what else to say.

If I Walked Away… is a powerful collection of personal essays exploring life’s breaking points, and the quiet strength found just beyond them. Through stories of medical trials, marriage struggles, financial hardship, and emotional reckoning, Nova James offers a raw, unfiltered look at the kind of resilience most people hide.

In Queen of Hearts: Born a Lemon, Nova tells on herself; candidly, unapologetically, and often hilariously. She takes you through the surgeries, the setbacks, the sarcastic remarks that got her through, and the signs that kept showing up to remind her that she was never as alone as she felt.

Is it still education if no one’s learning? In Bearing a Burden: The Challenges Surrounding the Education System, author and mother Nova James pulls back the curtain on a system that’s quietly failing the very people it’s meant to serve. With a blend of personal stories, classroom insights, and bold, practical ideas, this book asks the hard questions, then dares to offer hopeful answers. Why are students bored and teachers burnt out? How did curiosity get replaced with compliance? Most importantly, what can we do, right now, to shift the system two degrees at a time? This isn’t about blame.

We were sent to Glennmare Academy. An elite boarding school on a windswept island off the coast of Seattle where the unruly daughters of affluent East Coast families are exiled. Kitty, Bernie, Coretta, Diane, Jolie. We're more like sisters than roommates. Even if Kitty is gone. At Glennmare, each bed is filled with a teenage girl who wears ribbons in her hair, a nod to innocence we lost long ago. When we were sent out into the world, away from home, to fend to for ourselves. If we start telling the truth about what happened that night we might just break down.

We live in a time where controversy seems to be the currency of conversation. People disagree not because they truly hold opposing views, but because they feel compelled to take a side, any side, simply for the sake of argument. Discourse has become a battlefield, where winning is prioritized over understanding. It’s disheartening.
