Over 900 words and chapter 20 finished. Just the epilogue left and then this first draft will be finished! I’m so ready to be done writing this one and read through it to see just how much work it needs. #writingcommunity #romancewriter #amwriting

On my desk I keep all the proof copies of each novel I’ve published. There’s 8 at the moment but by the end of this year a 9th will join these. Seeing my growing row of proofs reminds me what I’m working towards on the days when I struggle. Keep writing. #writingcommunity #indieauthor #romanceauthor

Managed over 800 words this morning before work. The final chapter is almost done! Then it’s just the epilogue. I’m so ready to finish the first draft of this one so I can take a break from it before diving into edits. #writingcommunity #indieauthor

My publishing journey started 5 years ago. But the first book I published took several years of starts and stops before I had a finished full draft. If you want to write a book, just start. Then keep writing. Don’t give up until it’s done. #writingcommunity #romancebooks #indieauthor #writingadvice

Over 1k words today! Also finished chapter 19. Only one chapter and the epilogue left in the first draft of my small town romance. #writingcommunity #romanceauthor

I need to do some writing but Kiki is making it a little difficult. 😂 #writingproblems #writingcommunity

It was a rough afternoon and a busy day working for my 9-5 but I still managed to write over 700 words this evening. This 1st draft is inching closer to the finish line! #writingprogress #writingcommunity #indieauthor

I’ve been lurking enough. Hi! I’m Andrea! I’m an indie author and vlogger (and full time writing instructor). I have 8 novels out and am working on the 9th one, which should be out later this year. I post vlogs twice a week on my YouTube channel. Looking forward to seeing what Bluesky has to offer.
