Hi, my name is Geniva (Gg), and I’m finally taking a huge leap of faith with a dream I’ve carried for years.For as long as I can remember, I’ve been finding “random hearts” in the most unexpected places—

in rocks, in clouds, in spills, in shadows, and in some of the darkest seasons of my life.

Those hearts showed up when I was struggling with addiction, heartbreak, loss, and trying to put myself back together. They felt like quiet messages from the universe saying, “You’re not done yet.”I’ve turned that journey into two books:• Random Hearts: Shadows of Love – a raw poetry/memoir about my real story. Addiction wasn’t just a phase; it was my lifestyle. This book walks through the shadows, the healing, and learning to love life again.A Random Hearts children’s book – a bright, hopeful story to help little dreamers see hearts and magic in everyday life, even when things feel hard.These two books are just the beginning.

Random Hearts: Shadows of Love is the first book in a future series for adults, and the children’s book is the first in a Random Hearts series for kids. Your support doesn’t just help one book—it helps launch two whole series built around healing, hope, and the universe’s heart-shaped signs.Publishing on Amazon (KDP) itself is free, but getting these books done right is not.

To bring both books to a professional level, I was quoted $1,199. That total covers:

• Full-page illustrations and character art for the children’s book

• Professional cover designs (front, back, and spine) for both books

• Editing and proofreading for both books

• Final shaping of the Random Hearts: Shadows of Love manuscript

• Formatting and setup for print-on-demand copies

• ISBN and preparation so the books can also be published on platforms like Apple Books, Kobo, Google Books, and Barnes & Noble

I don’t have $1,199 sitting around. What I do have is my story, my heart, and the courage to finally share it.

If you’ve ever watched me struggle and get back up, seen me post my random heart pictures, or just believe in second chances and universe signs, I’m asking for your help to cross this finish line.

Your donation—no matter the size—will go directly toward the artwork, editing, and professional preparation needed to bring these first two books to life and open the door for the rest of the Random Hearts series.

My promise is to keep everyone updated as the books move through editing, design, and finally publishing. When they’re live, I’ll share the finished covers and links so you can see what you helped create.

Thank you for believing in me and in Random Hearts.

Love,

Geniva (Gg)
