The "Touch Her and Die" trope girlie's are the eldest daughters.

Someone:

πŸ‘€ Looking out for her.
❀️‍πŸ”₯Protective of her heart.
🧠 Stimulating her mind.
πŸ’ͺProviding safety to her.
πŸ›Œ Allowing her to rest.
πŸ‘« She's not alone.

The First Woman,
Veiled in grace,
Seduced by malice,
Condemned to mortality,
For a sin of which Man was also culpable.
Release thy chains,
Be enveloped in mine embrace.
Thou art now safe with me.

As soon as I saw beam as the theme of today's #WIPSnips, I thought of the single time that word appears in Miles From Morning. I'm basically able to ctrl+f my WIPs in my brain now. Is that an unhealthy level of obsession or..?

A collection of short stories in my Monster Realm universe after the events of Queen of Monsters. Stories vary from Callista meeting Roxanne's family and Isabella entering the Witch Games as well as secrets being revealed.

I had a great time today at the Williamsburg Book Festival.

I sold a decent amount of books, making nearly three times the vendor fee. Also got to hand out some bookmarks and connect with other amazing authors.

Glory to God.

Adorable! She's so sweet and cute, and when she screams "Chicken!" in a second, it melted my heart.

Adorable! She's so sweet and cute, and when she screams "Chicken!" in a second, it melted my heart.

"Chickens!" She's screaming at the chickens that are about to go in the house, as kids do. I was shocked by what an authentic-feeling moment this was, and it really sold their domestic bliss for me.

Omg they got this adorable lil angel to convincingly scream at a chicken that's going into the house, & I totally bought it.

This is a good year for child actors giving really strong performances. I absolutely believed that girl was afraid chickens were going into her house 🀣

Hello friends, welcome back to another exciting episode of STALE FISH SATURDAY!!
I know this chapter comes in on the shorter side, but I feel like it's still very exciting and sets up a lot of important elements that will pay off in the falling action of the story!

Work kicked my bum today. But I’m telling myself if I just spend a mere 30 minutes writing I’ll feel so much better about the day.

I hope your WIP brings you joy too

Monster Kids. I’ve always been jealous of monster kids. But a recent epiphany has changed all that.

I didn’t grow up with classic monsters. Me, I was a slasher kid!
