Every Purchase Of Smoking In Garages Brings Us One Step Closer to Freedom

When I set out to write Smoking in Garages, it wasn’t just about telling my story—it was about reclaiming my life. It was about breaking cycles, about turning pain into purpose, and about proving that no matter where we come from, we have the power to rewrite our future.

Every purchase of my books brings my daughters and me one step closer to that future.

One step closer to medical treatments that don’t just keep me alive but actually give me back my quality of life. Because surviving isn’t the same as living, and for too long, I’ve been stuck in survival mode—fighting for answers, for proper care, for a body that isn’t constantly betraying me.

One step closer to financial independence. To a life where I don’t have to worry if we’ll make rent or if an unexpected expense will throw everything off balance. A life where I can say yes to my daughters instead of constantly having to say not right now, maybe someday.

One step closer to a home of our own. A place where my daughters—and hopefully, one day, my grandchildren—can feel safe, secure, and rooted. A home where love and laughter aren’t overshadowed by financial stress or the ghosts of the past, but instead, where new memories can be built, free from the weight of everything we’ve survived.

Every book you buy, every story you share, every review you leave—it all matters. It’s not just supporting a book; it’s supporting a mother who refuses to give up. It’s helping me build something lasting, something stable, something that ensures my daughters never have to carry the burdens I did.

So, from the depths of my heart—thank you. Thank you for believing in this story. Thank you for being part of this journey. And thank you for helping me get one step closer to freedom.

With gratitude,
Jessica Woodville
