Darla Durand writes about the quiet decisions that change a life, the kind nobody notices but you.

She spent years as a capable, busy woman with a full-time job, a family she adores, and a glass of wine most evenings that she called unwinding. Her first book, Just A Sip, came out of the ordinary morning she finally asked whether that glass was actually working for her. There was no crisis and no rock bottom. Just a woman who decided to pay attention, and who was surprised by what she found on the other side.

She lives in western Canada. When she's not writing, she's at her job, or being a grandmother to two little girls who own her heart, or figuring out what this next chapter looks like, which is the same thing a lot of women are quietly working out too.

Just A Sip is her first book. It won't be her last.
