Having grown up in Northern Ontario, Alabama Rose adores winter, especially the glittering snowflakes and pond hockey. She finds joy in what can be a bleak season, and in the same way, she aims to find beauty in the hard seasons of life. She writes to highlight that beauty and bring courage to face the messy, broken places of yourself. On the bitter cold days, her stories are like cozy hoodies. When she’s not curled up with a book and a blanket, she loves connecting with people. Over the years, Alabama has built friendships by serving as a camp counselor, teaching music lessons, and listening to people’s life stories over coffee.
