Just finished the messiest, most raw first draft of my third book. A story that tore me apart and stitched me back together again. But writing is magic like that, right? Turning emotions too big to hold into words that might make someone else feel seen. Now, onto edits!

Someone out there needs your story. Don’t let doubt silence your voice. Keep going. #writingcommunity

That book you love? It started as a messy first draft. Everyone starts somewhere so keep going. One day, your first draft could become someone’s favorite book too.

My co-author and I have officially started writing my third book! I write the words and he provides emotional support plus the occasional keyboard sabotage at crucial moments.

Outlining a book is like planning a road trip. First, you start with a clear route. Then you add a few fun detours and suddenly you’re lost in the woods for two weeks with a dragon and have no idea how you got there.

I met my younger self for coffee today. I’m so proud of her and can’t wait to meet her again one day.

Happy Valentine’s Day #writingcommunity each of you are so loved 💗

Reminder that it’s okay to let your writing breathe. Sometimes stepping away is exactly what your story needs.

Groundhog saw his shadow and was like, perfect! More time to make a dent in my endless tbr. #booksky

My synopsis writing process always goes through five emotional stages: 1. Denial (I don’t need one) 2. Anger (this is impossible) 3. Bargaining (can I just send the whole book?) 4. Depression (I’ll never be a writer) 5. Acceptance (fine, here’s a terrible one) #writingcommunity

Almost done editing my second book! I absolutely love this story and all the characters who help bring it to life! Can’t wait to get this one back to my agent and see where it takes us 💗

The story you’re struggling to write today, could become someone’s favorite book tomorrow. Keep going.

#writingcommunity just incase anyone needs one of these today.

The email I just got from my agent gushing about my second book 😭 made my whole week! Now to get started on edits!

Nothing humbles you faster like turning on the front-facing camera by accident.

Small win Saturday! I just finished a list of book three ideas that I’m excited to pitch to my agent this week! What’s your small win for today?

Just a reminder that the best stories come when you stop asking, ‘Will others like this?’ And start asking, ‘Do I love this?’ Write for you and only you.

I’ve decided that picking out a paint color is like pitching a story. Moody Midnight, Unreliable Beige, Morally Gray Mauve, Plot Hole Peach and can’t forget the ever popular Character Growth Green. Either way, I’ll be agonizing over it for weeks.

You know you’re a writer when can’t even own a houseplant without naming it and giving it a tragic backstory.

Snow day 🤍

Live footage of a writer in its natural habitat of waiting:

2024 brought many challenges: surgery, setbacks, and doubt. But it also brought growth. With one book on submission and another turned in, I’m encouraged to know that tough times don't have to define us. Roadblocks happen, but don’t ever let that stop you. Keep going!

If you could use a gif to describe your 2024 writing journey, what would it be?

Between Christmas and New Years, we’re all just Sims walking around aimlessly from room to room while occasionally opening up the fridge.

Merry Christmas Eve and shout out to Santa for eating cookies at every stop. That man really knows how to prioritize snacks over work. Truly a legend.

I’ve decided that marriage is just asking each other what you want for dinner until one of you finally decides.

An Editors guide to: FATE IN FOCUS When the past and present collide, fate brings love into focus. #writingcommunity

Half of writing is just saying, ‘I’ll deal with that later’ and then panicking because it’s later.

Letting my husband beta read... Husband: Why is he always clenching his jaw? Is this some sort of foreshadowing for when we find out he has TMJ? Me:😐😐😐😐😐

Keep going.

Letting my husband beta read… Husband: Why is this guy always smirking? Does his face not get tired? Me: What do you have against smiling? Husband: I’m concerned for his face.

My editing partner 😻

When you start editing THAT scene in the book. Do I adjust the lighting, rearrange the pillows or just shut the door and leave them to it.

Sure, I can craft worlds out of words. But, when it comes to ‘definitely’ I become illiterate.

One of my favorite things about writing is the impact your words can have on someone. Your words outlive you. Whether it be today, tomorrow or years from now, your words could be what helps light someone’s path. So keep going, your words matter.

Editing is when ‘Did I really write that?’ Swings wildly between ‘This is genius!’ and ‘What was I thinking?’ There’s no in between.

I typed THE END today on the first draft of my second book. My first one is still out on submission so as we continue to wait, I’ll just keep writing!

They say, ‘write what you know.’ And I’m happy to report that my characters now cry in the shower and stress eat snacks.

Thankful for you #writingcommunity
