The perils of having your first release be a holiday novella: The KDP dashboard looking real quiet in May! ๐๐๐ Anyone on the hunt for a Hallmark Christmas movie in reverse to add to their summer TBR? #indieauthor #romancelandia #romancereaders
Devasted to report once again that if I want my book to be finished, I have to, in fact, write the book. Rude. #writingcommunity #romancewriter
Y'all, the messy middle they warn you about? I'm there. Send help! #writingcommunity
Still haven't made a video I'm in yet... baby steps!
I'm teaching myself how to TikTok! (I sound positively geriatric rn.) Follow me over there with the same username. Here's to my new career as content creator. ๐๐๐ #writingcommunity #booktok #booksky

I like to believe it's usually because it matters to us so much, and the feeling of wanting to get it "right" sometimes gets in the way of just getting it done.
And sometimes, because Canva is fun. ๐
What I should have done while waiting at guitar lessons: Write.
What I did: Made book cover mockups for my series that's not even done yet.
Writers, why are we like this? #writerproblems #writingcommunity

A @chipotle.bsky.social portion sizes rant... no, not that one. Why does my salad now come with like, 6 pieces of lettuce? Everything else is actually a fairly reasonable amount, but feels like the greens are being rationed! #lunchtime
Some news! My piece "A Second Shot" will be featured with a dozen other romance stories in the inaugural Tender & Tempting Tales anthology, Moonlight & Margaritas. Stay tuned for pre-order info soon, and get ready to get your beach read on! #romancelandia #summerreading #booksky
It's Indie Bookstore Day! To celebrate, why not pick up a paperback of THE COWBOY CHRISTMAS GLOW UP from bookshop.org and benefit your fave local indie? Don't have one nearby? Try supporting Read My Lips Boston, an indie dedicated to supporting diverse romance! #indiebookstoreday
The countdown is ON! One year until my debut novel, AMERICAN ROYALTY. Didn't expect my Senate-set love story to be on the verge of moving from romance to fantasy for featuring a functional US democracy. But if West Wing meets Taylor Swift will fuel your fight, add on GoodReads today! #romancelandia
Drafting has been WILD process for this book. It's my first time working from a beat sheet, so I'm writing scenes out of order. It's been a great way to get unblocked, but editing for continuity is going to be a bear. Are you a linear writer, or do you bop around? #writingcommunity

I just tried to explain to my eleven-year-old how a single Gap commercial revived swing music and dancing in the late 90s... I'm pretty sure she thinks I'm making it up.
I have hit the stage where I think I figured out all the plot holes, which means I'm writing up a storm and additonal ones shall emerge post-haste. But they're shiny new ones, so I've got that going for me and my dopamine levels. #writerproblems #writingcommunity
I am deeply back on my Hamilton bullshit, I fear.
