The artist I got a commission from uploaded what she made me on her page and the video was disqualified from the FYP for “unoriginal” content (and click app doesn’t like his shirt being off— despite all the thirst traps everywhere)
It’s a fight to get views up when that gets flagged.
Haven’t been as active on here as I probably should be😅
It’s been a bit.
I have some fun things about writing progress.
I’m on to round one of Re-writes 😅
Estimated 90ish hours. (Which should take anywhere from 30-40 days :)
We’ll see.

When you’re editor says that’s too many ellipses… should probably listen 😅
My #paranormalfantasy work in progress + some art I had commissioned <3
Wonderful character art by recluse.moth over on IG! Bluesky post has Alt text!
Text reads: Death is supposed to be simple. Being a medium complicates it. A lot. For the background: A faded filter over a picture of a woman with long red hair is standing by a lamppost looking across the street where a shadow of a man stands on the roof with a glowing appearance and aura.
A woman with long, wavy red hair, in a green jacket and jeans is standing in the dark holding a flashlight. Behind her, is the hazy image of a man with light brown curly hair reaching towards her. His image is slightly translucent with a blue aura to give him the appearance of being a ghost. The text reads: Adam is dead. But his spirit still lingers.
More things for Welcome To Edwin~
#paranormalfantasyromance
When Jenna flees to the island of Edwin to flee her past, she starts to uncover more and more secrets. About the town that, for its size has a lively night life. About her late (ex?) boyfriend. And the scariest part: secrets about her past she’d rather keep buried.

As always, @chriswarcraft.bsky.social is a real one.
“If you like…. Then you’ll like…” featured in neon style letters, glowing yellow. Set on a purple background with stars. It features the shows “Supernatural” , “Ghost Whisperer” and “Grimm.”
A smudge of a partial picture in the center: the picture is a woman facing towards the road with buildings on the other side at night. You see her back and long red hair. Standing on a building across the street is a silhouette of a man with a glowing rainbow aura. The picture is surrounded by the following words: “haunted by your murdered boyfriend.” , “magical city,” “your co-worker is a vampire,” , “accidental astral projection.” , “Demon deals.”, “surprise! You’re a medium.” All is set on a dark blue/purple background with stars.
A mock up book cover on a dark blue/purple background with stars. The book has light purple end pages: The cover is a woman facing the building across the street at night. You see her ling red hair down her back. Across the street, standing on top of the building, is a silhouette of a man with a rainbow aura. The title “Midnight City” is at the top, with “concept cover” written below.

Trump has officially signed 25% tariffs on Canada & Mexico, & 10% on China. One exemption is oil from Canada will only have a 10% tariff. Costs for Americans WILL go up. Costs to purchase a car, electronics, clothing, gas, prescriptions & toys will go up. It’s said this will take effect on Tuesday.
So. I plan on buckling down more this week to work on the dev edits I got back for Midnight City.
But I thought I’d give a little ~ teaser.
👻 accidental Haunting
🧛♀️ sapphic vampires

Texas is one of the country's testing grounds for anti-library legislation and many states have attempted to duplicate their legislation.
We're tracking 14 anti-library bills in the state.

As a kid, I had an Alphasmart that was for school work. But I often used a file or two towards writing fanfic. I’d have it out typing away waiting for the bus. I’d be sitting on a curb, and just in my own little world.
New Substack went live last night. <3

10,000%.
Two beagles sitting side by side with shirts on. One is in a Halloween mummy shirt, and the other is in a bright orange “sweatshirt” looking shirt.
Two very cute beagles who love their shirts.
If you ask them about a shirt they get super excited. And if you pick one up they run to you and will get in the way of eschother when you’re trying to put it on them.
I was an education major when Devos was secretary of education. 🤢(lots of ugly angry tears shed) I survived that semester on spite and hated her with every fiber of my being. Hated her voucher Bs then… hate it now. Hate how everyone is trying to continue that legacy.
I am on a lot of the socials, not really using a lot of book promo at the moment. I’ve just gotten back my developmental edit so it’s still going to be a while before it’s out.
I’m setting a tentative pub date for December. <3
Right now it’s still in a bit of chaos mode, I allow myself a few chaotic posts till I allow it to be somewhat serious.
Hopefully these two installments are still enjoyable <3

**note I haven’t updated where I’ve switched to Indie so the focus is changing.
On a purple to pink ombre sky, there’s the letters in white: “The Witching Hour Writer” With stars and a castle in a almost crescent moon and bats fluttering by the castle
Once I’m at my computer I’m updating my substack icon.
On of my friends teases me how I’m constantly up at some ungodly hour lol.
“Lea up at the witching hour again. Surprise surprise.” 😂
There’s something peaceful about 2am.
Check out the link to my substack below :)
