Recently I finally took the leap and wrote/ #amquerying a rugby romance as a former player. It feels so much more prevalent now after Quinnipiac University's announcement. Also, if you don’t follow @ilonamaher.bsky.social what are you doing with your life? #rugby #romance #collegeathletes

1. I wrote an MS with these characters years ago & after watching the USA Women’s Rugby win Bronze I started this MS. 2. The rugby team’s pump up song is the Pokémon theme song 3. Though it’s Andi’s first year at college, she’s 19 b/c she had to do a year of Post Graduate #camprevpit #CRPBees

Coming back from a busy weekend to join in on this #camprevpit prompt. I hate revisions because I know I need to fix something but I don’t know what it is! #CRPBees

#CampRevpit #CRP When a picture of Andi in her sports bra at practice goes viral, she begins to get strange messages. If she can’t uncover who’s behind this, her first year at college might be her last. YA Contemporary—> Thriller

#VillainVoices #CampRevPit #CRPBees My “villains” would say it’s about an attention seeking girl that only plays boy’s lacrosse to get a guy finally being kicked out of the sport and finding a sport that is more suited for her.

They [the boys on her lacrosse team] always respected me more if I could hang with them, if I were the ‘cool’ girl. I call it my Superman persona. It’s a little backwards since Superman had to act bumble g as Clack Kent. Bumbling Andi isn’t my alter ego, it’s my true self. #CRPBees #camprevpit

#camprevpit #CRPBees I’m at the top of the mountain. I finished my first draft (pushed myself to do so to submit to revpit). And now I realize that I still have to get back to the bottom—EDITS! I’m not sure what my MS needs, though I do know it needs edits
