Life is filled with tragedy and Ms. Bale's writing reflects this reality. However, there is always a silver lining...even if one must spend their entire life searching for it. In her previous career, Ms. Bale traveled the United States as a Government Relations Liaison, working closely with Congressional offices and various government agencies. This experience afforded her a glimpse into the sometimes \"not so pretty\" reality of the political sphere. Much of this reality and various locations throughout her travels make it into her writing. She dreams of the day she can return to visit Alaska.
