I call this section Letters to Earth, because it contains dispatches that I hope will guide YOU my loyal readers to Living the Rainbow Life.

If you know anything of my early years in the Icon Worlds, you would understand why I’m drawn to the Bohemian aesthetic. Both my mom and my sister Poppy were Wanderlores by tradition meaning they lived their lives according to the rituals required of active members of the Tribe*. Despite
