Remember 2012? A simpler time, a gentler time. A time when I decided to start a blog. I created the blog in 2011, but everything I wrote was terrible, so I deleted all my content. I was living in the frozen northern wastelands of North Dakota, and I felt I needed a way to communicate to the folks back home in Nebraska how I was doing. Hence the title NE to ND. Quite literally, Nebraska to North Dakota.
I moved back to Nebraska, and keeping that as the title seemed pointless. The more I looked at the address, the more I noticed it looked like Any Second. Hence, what the blog morphed into. Any Second Now.
Here it is, 2024, and I’m no longer just Malia. I have a book coming out this year, and if you’ve found me from that, you’ll know me as Beth Hope.
Nice to meet you!
Any Second Now... 
Welcome to North Dakota! I hope you love my home state as much as I do. Are you here for work? If you have any questions, I’d love to help!
Thanks for the welcome! I actually moved here a year ago to go back to school.
I have nominated you for the liebster award. I have enjoyed your bog so much
you can find out about this here..
best wishes, shelley
Thank you so much! I’m glad you’re enjoying my writing!
I am so thoroughly enjoying your postings:) It has been delightful to discover you last week, and to read your articles from most recent going backwards (because that was the only way I knew how to do it, not knowing how to work
my I-phone yet) I have been so glad to see your serendipitous discovery of a kindred spirit (e.g., “The Boyfriend!”) at a time when you were least expecting anything like that to happen. Made me think of the word “suddenly” —- as in, when God moves, it’s almost always prefaced by “Suddenly…” (:) I think that a lot of the really wonderful things that happen in our lives occur “suddenly”, just like you and your young man have found. Sending you lots of love and support :). From Mary Jane Sepmeier, in Ada, Oklahoma.
