I love to write, and like Elizabeth Thatcher Thornton Grant, I don't have much patience. So as we wait for the love triangle to sort itself out (in Nathan's favor, of course), I feel the need to write between the lines.

When Calls the Heart and Hope Valley have such lovely people living in it. I feel I know them now after watching the show from beginning to end multiple times. I also love the characters in When Hope Calls and like Nathan, I will be visiting Brookfield often.

I started this story as a challenge to myself to write a chapter every day for 30 days. Then COVID-19 hit and I extended that -- for myself and also for the lovely comments from some of you saying that Nathan and Elizabeth were making your isolation a little easier. Thank you for continuing to make this story so much fun to write.

To those of you who are still fervently #TeamJack -- I understand it's hard to move on. It was hard for me, too. But I tried to think about Abigail and Molly and Florence and how they had to cope with loss. I suppose we can be as strong as they are.

To those of you who are #TeamLucas -- I like him very much. But I believe that for the long-term, the better man for Elizabeth is Nathan. And Lucas has his own love interest brewing with a Thatcher girl.

Thanks for reading -- and remember: Always do what you are afraid to do. It's what keeps us moving forward, I think.
