Featuring Grace Hoff

Grace Hoff survived her near SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome) episode, which left her dead for over 30 minutes. Now in her thirties, Grace loves a good comeback story and how the courage of a fictional character can evoke strength and resolve in herself and others. When she is not writing, Grace keeps busy as a dancer and teacher at a growing Canadian dance organization, along with playing training and going on long walks in all weather with her mini goldendoodle, who will one day be her service dog.

About Her Short Story
Garden Dreams by Grace Hoff
Ten-year-old Acacia loves to help Grandma in the garden. When Grandma falls and badly breaks her leg and wrist, Acacia has an idea to try to keep up Grandma’s garden. But when a huge rain storm hits out of nowhere, all of Acacia’s hard work is ruined. The situation takes an unexpected turn when Acacia learns Grandma is coming home next week, but the garden still looks like a pond; roots are floating and plants are rotting and yellowed. Can Acacia fix the garden in time for her return?
