And then...I rewrote an entire day's work in my head while trying to fall asleep. This isn't pantsing...it's writing through chaos theory! Ahh!! And then a smegsy vampire book entered the chat. My writing process would unalive so many organized, amazing planners. #booksky #romancelandia 💙📚🌶️

I completely understand why Emily Rath's Pucking Around was SOOO LONG... 4 different POVs = SOOO much more story to tell. Weeee. But I did pass the 50K mark today (even with a crappy sinus headache that turned into a migraine). Never To Suffer- Coming Summer 2025 #Romancelandia 💙📚🌶️ #booksky

FYI: ICE is posting up at Home Depots here in LA county and arresting work crews coming in to get supplies. If you know someone who needs to know this, pass it on.

My characters in the book I'm writing have no chill. Me: Okay, this book is my cute little poly throuple. Characters: What if... Me: Wait, what? Characters: Just, you know, hear us out here... Me: But...but I had a plan... Characters: Cute, but we're doing it our way. QUAD!!! #romancelandia 💙📚🌶️

If you happen to be in central Florida and looking for something to warm you up this Saturday, check out White Rose Books & More for Spicy Saturday. Four indie authors of varying degrees of spice from closed door no spicy to throw the doors open it's hot in here. #romancelandia 💙📚🌶️

I also muted "Inauguration" for seven days because no thank you. Now if I could just mute him for four years...

YEEEEES!! I fixed the space time continuum (aka my story timeline) and now the flux capacitor is fully operational!! (either I've gotten back on track with my writing...or I'm blowing it up? Both...it's both) I've got some minor fixes to make, but I just passed 13K on my next novel. 💙📖🌶️

I have writers block, but I've signed up for Tome, red note, and another one I can't remember all while trying to get a handle on youtube and post more on here and other sites. So far, I hate 2025. Tomorrow I'll hate it even more.

Are pro-Ai "authors" all MAGA? With their shitty hot takes & BS reasons why it's good for publishing...same logic. Ai has a place in the world, but it's not in creative fields. Also, if you're pro-Ai in creative spaces, just go ahead and block me. I'll design in comic sans & papyrus over Ai.

Topic that I'm genuinely curious about—Do closed door/non-spicy romance authors find marketing in the spicy spaces worthwhile? I would think that wouldn't be your target market except for a few outliers still figuring the genre out? #romancelandia 📚💙 (i write 🌶️, but want to understand & help)

Dear SAG Awards... 🖕from all the Sebastian Stan fans. Two movies where he gave transfomative, incredible performances and you straight up snubbed him. Cowards.

It's fun saying I'm a full time author instead of saying I'm an unemployed graphic designer, but I'd like a paycheck again soon. Through my books or a corporate job, I don't care which at this point. 🤞🤞

My grandmother asked if people were working tomorrow because of the cold. Woman, we live an hour from you...IN CENTRAL FLORIDA! Does she think we're getting off work to shovel iguanas before we go alligator skiing?!? Ma'am, please stop.

I didn't make it to midnight but the neighbors wanted to make sure neither me, my doggo, or my migraine missed the whole new year thing. Thanks.

I've realized that there are some instances that, no matter how good the book might be, main character names matter to some people. It's me. I'm some people. There are names that I read and audible tire screeches happen in my brain. 💙📚 I need a reset. What are some of your FAVORITE mc names?

I need an editor for things outside of my books. Like someone to tell me I don't need 4+ art pieces, 5 stickers, bookmarks, and more for each book. I'm a graphic designer and I just can't help it!! Maybe I just need people to WANT all the extras. 🥴🥴 #authorlife #romanceauthor

I'm so damn sick of being sick. I get sick way more often here on Florida than I did in California and it's getting in the way of writing. 😭😭😷🤒🤧🤧

Huh, changing up the way I do reels really has helped with engagement. So all the ones I worked hard on are crap and a book quote slapped over a video is what people want. Okay!
