Full Circle: Now available from the Our State Store
Full Circle, a new book by Elizabeth Hudson, Editor-in-Chief of Our State magazine, is now available for purchase! This is the third book I’ve collaborated on with Elizabeth, following Silver Linings (2019) and You Make My Heart Sing (2022).
Full Circle brings together 35 of Elizabeth’s essays, originally published in her popular column at the beginning of each issue of Our State. Much like a letter from the editor, these essays open the magazine with her thoughtful reflections and storytelling. Each one is paired with a watercolor illustration I created especially for this project.
You can order your copy directly through the Our State Store.
