Not our dork of a MC looking death in the face and deciding to talk about his blundered attempt at admitting his feelings to his crush 😂 #booksky

What are you currently reading? Are you enjoying it? I'm reading 'Planting the World: Joseph Banks and his Collectors: An Adventurous History of Botany' by Jordan Goodman. It's research for a fanfic I've been writing.

The land here, too, laid barren, but instead of the blistering summer desert, Val found herself in the biting chill of Winter. The sudden cold offered little to no relief after the sweltering heat she suffered before she closed her eyes to sleep. - A Dance of Bow & Blade #RandomReevesWords

A time travel book/movie/show that your characters enjoy or would enjoyThere are quite a few references to Back to the Future. 3 major characters watch the first film early on, and it sounds like they see all 3 by the end. Liam would also like The Map of Tiny Perfect Things. #TimeTravelAuthors

Unexpected day off, so editing this morning. Unedited snippet from the Rose book. When dragons fight, the grass burns. And, Mathias thought grimly, we are all grass to Human Kings and Fairy Queens.

With bluesky adding a "drafts" area, we might finally be able to bring back #RandomReevesWords. It's just so busy sometimes that I'm not able to get it set every day, but being able to save drafts might help 👀

Does anyone else have that one character that DOESN'T have a death wish or desire to jump headfirst into every dangerous situation without a plan, and spends the entire book pulling their hair out while they try and keep the other MCs from doing exactly that? 😂 Cuz that's Estasia in book 2. #booksky

"At any moment, it could decide not to play nice anymore, and we'd all be deader than a rat in a kitchen. I did not want to be a rat." Book 2 of A Daughter's Ransom #writerslife #booksky #bookquote

Happy Valentine's Day from our favorite dork, Louko. He's not exactly a charmer but he tries his best 😂 #booksky #writing #funnyquote #valentinesday

Our editor sent this meme to us while they've been editing book 7. It sums up the MC and his relationship with his father well 😂 #writerslife #amediting #booksky

I once more would like to bring it to everyone's attention that baby dresses have these really nice big pockets....why does a baby need pockets on their dress? And why do clothing companies think I, an adult woman, do not? #momlife #why #womensclothing

I call the dishwasher the washing machine sometimes. My husband says no, washing machines wash clothes. I ask where does the name "washing machine" say that? Is a dishwasher not a machine? does it not wash? #funny #authorslife

How come pants made for literal babies have better pockets than women's jeans? I really don't want my baby to have pockets...do you have any idea what they'll put in there?! #momslife

Ah yes, when you don't want to write the prologue so you just summarize it. #booksky #writerslife

Husband: The English language was made up in a locked room full of monkeys Me: I thought they were writing Shakespeare Husband: Yeah but they made the English language first

Astra and Louko coded from A Daughter's Ransom by @scharareeves.bsky.social. I'm just picturing them from a certain scene. #readingcommunity.

Coffee is a writer's best friend. Or at least...this writer's best friend. Sorry Becca. #booksky #writerslife #coffee

🤣 Okay, this will now be my headcanon forever. Boromir was my favorite character as a child and I used to make up all sorts of alternate endings where he didn't die.

Trying to post at least one thing daily, except our lives are not particularly interesting so it's hard to figure out something we can post about 🫣😅 #writerslife #booksky

“You know,” Louko pointed to the door. “Actually, I think I’m good to go scream at a wall for a couple more minutes…. Carry on.” Book 5 of A Daughter's Ransom #booksky

There was this historian who was talking about how fairytales weren't meant for children until around the Victorian era, and it reminded me of that quote by C.S. Lewis: "When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up" #booksky

The hype for spring has begun. I have bought seeds and am determined to try and grow some annuals starting inside this year. Now can it be spring already? #writerslife

Currently speedreading through books 1-7 to prep for book 8 to make sure we have everything in a row, and wow the characters have grown a lot since the start of the series 👀. Anyone else's books have a lot of character growth from beginning to end of a WIP/Book/Series?

Anyone have specific characteristics that their characters maybe accidentally ended up taking on? For instance, Niamh always talks about the weather when she is anxious and unsure what to say, and so Louko ends up talking about the weather in his head a great deal because he is anxious 😆 #booksky

#OutOfContextQuoteOfTheDay Hey, look, one day, I aspire for someone at the gym to mentally label me "buff grandma." It's basically an award.

After all this time, I can't believe we're on the final stretch of this series. Book 7 is with our editor and we've been working through book 8(last book of the series). #amwriting #amediting #amrevising

Started reading Yumi and the Nightmare Painter and wow I absolutely love the narration so much 🤣. #amreading #books

The Living Stone by @scharareeves.bsky.social!!!

It's that time of year where everything is dark and it feels like it's 9pm already. I need hot cocoa and a nice warm blanket #writerslife

Sorry we have continued to be MIA. Niamh had a baby and life has been absolutely crazy 🫣. Hoping we can start being a bit better about posting on here. #writerslife

Went to the store and they had this Halloween soap with a little Dracula cape around it. The soap was red, and I almost picked it up because who doesn't want to wash their hands in the blood of their enemies?!
