If I make my book sweet tea scented do you think it’d go viral on TikTok? #garlicbook

I swear I was shoved by a ghost near the fireplace at Lafitte’s in New Orleans last night. ( I don’t drink before you ask.) It was surreal. #nola #ghosts

When you’re in New Orleans and you don’t drink, you improvise. ✨ 🫖 #nola

I always make a video for my niece and nephew from my Guinea pigs for their birthdays.. it’s been a fan favorite for a few years. Hoping they don’t age out anytime soon! They grow up too quickly!

A little nod to Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil by John Berendt in chapter 15 of The Society of Curse Breakers, scene set in Bonaventure Cemetery, Savannah Georgia. Remember to cast magic on the right side of midnight. #urbanfantasy #amquerying #magic

Happy Saturday! #bluesky #saturday #swamp

I’m going to New Orleans for the first time in years for fun and to do some research for a book. Any suggestions on the best weird and unique things to see? #neworleans #nola #travel #writer

If you love weird and whimsical magic and lore follow Alice and the crew of The Calypso as they sail south battling monsters, and learning how to use their unique magical abilities as they quest to break an ancient Druid curse. #querying #mgfantasy #magic #charleston

One IPhone was harmed in the making of this video. If you know the crew of The Calypso that’s the least of their worries. 📖 The Society of Curse Breakers #funny #ocean #ohno #book #mgfantasy

Alice Ashwood and the quest to pass her creative writing class. She’s open to notes, writing may be more difficult than curse breaking after all. From The Society of Curse Breakers #UnhingedPit #F #MG #YA #Q #amquerying #mgfantasy

Former supernatural-obsessed teen, Brandy, hardly minds that her husband is a werewolf...until bodies start showing up dead on their property on full moons. Has her partner lost control? And should true love really require this much bleach? #A #T #Q #UnhingedPit

Cryptids are tricky especially when they’re hungry… follow Alice’s advice and you’ll be just fine.. after all curse breakers and cryptids go together like peanut butter and lasagna. #cryptids #magic #mgfantasy #bluecrew #bluesky #amquerying #F #MG #Q #UnhingedPit

Do you crave an adventure where you can battle cryptids, sail magic filled seas, and follow cryptic riddles in a search to break an ancient curse? Alice definitely didn’t, but here she is. #cryptids #curse #magic #ghosts #fantasybook #amquerying

If paragliders can believe in a swath of fabric you can believe in yourself.

Portals can exist anywhere, and those with magic can use them freely to travel the world. The issue? You can’t always predict where you’ll land on the other-side. If you’re a curse breaker running from a cryptid though, sometimes anywhere but here is perfect. 📖 The Society of Curse Breakers

Forget Myers Briggs what’s your character alignment?

Rage flared through Ivy’s veins as she paced the lavish apartment that served as their cage. Her magic was suppressed, but they hadn’t tied her up. That was mistake number one. A vase flew through the air scattering glass and flowers across the wall.

It’s been a long 10 years. (9 months allegedly)

If only the search for a way to break an ancient Druid curse could be so easy… #fantasybooks #amquerying #writer #bluesky #nintendo #mgbooks

A water leak is not the leak I wished for.

When I was in grad school I wrote a lot of research papers and there was some pressure amongst my peers to write in a way that made us sound as smart as possible. Then I had a professor that taught us about using inclusive language in writing to make sure as many people as possible could read

Trying to convince my Guinea pigs they do not need birthday cake. Their squeaks persist.

Feeling proud of my vegan lasagna 😊

Just watched a video of a horse picking between two pieces of candy and just like that my depression and anxiety melted away for the day. I think I’ve found the cure. ✨

Daughter of the Deep inspired me to include a submarine in one of my MG fantasy books! This illustration is so cool. 🫧

When I wrote The Society of Curse Breakers I wasn’t sure if kids would want to read about a girl who has a chronic illness so I rolled it into the magic system.

I love how unhinged Millennials are, always cheers me up.

In case you are ever lost in the Bermuda Triangle, there’s hope. You can live on the Isle of Tempus with the pirate king Fenix, but unfortunately you cannot leave. Tough luck… #writer #mgfantasy #amquerying #ocean #bermudatriangle #sail

Writing saved my life. Truly it did. Three years ago I was diagnosed with a chronic illness that leaves me with some level of pain from uncomfortable to torturous every day. I became depressed and hopeless, unsure how much longer I wanted to live like this, was I even strong enough to make it?

Magic and monsters lurk around every corner, but you have a job to do. Can you survive the world of The Society of Curse Breakers? #mgfantasy #adventure #writer #querying

Oh Hello Cora, nice of you to drop in. Preview of Chapter Twelve, Secret Recipes. #mgfantasy #fantasybooks #adventurebooks #querying #amquerying

As someone with a bunch of food restrictions (chronic illness girly) I’ve been enjoying having my characters eat foods I can’t. I never thought that’s what I’d mean when I say I write fantasy stories.. . #writer #fantasy

Could you escape the Isle of Tempus? #MGfantasy #TheSocietyofCurseBreakers #querying #BermudaTriangle #adventurestories

Saw this today and.. yep.

In a world of uncertainty at least I can always count on forgetting one item at the grocery store. 🍅 😔
