Hi sorry hi I'm going to be so self indulgent for a moment We're hard at work getting BLUDEYE BEACH ready for release (keep an ear out for the release date!) And so we're doing final checks rn So i get to look at ~my book~ like it's a ~real book~ and Damn. 🥹 #booksky #hqpress #bludeyebeach

I'm finally done. Book 8 of the series. Took me more than a year to finish. It's about 113k words. Among all those words, my personal favorites are... "Call when you need us. I'm happy to punch Nazis at any given time.” mybook.to/ChildrenofSo... #urbanfantasy #amreading #newadult #booksky

Woke up to this 🥰 I mean part of me still thinks „this person‘s just being nice“ 😁 #writingcommunity #writesky #queerauthors

I buried myself in another revision and disappeared from socials. Now the manuscript is back in the hands of some readers for feedback. Always scary. Exciting. Scary. Did I say scary? #writingcommunity #writesky #queerauthors

Oh this is nice. The in-between in my world is white. Multiple levels of realities are separated by barriers only few can cross (duh, chosen ones blah blah). Between the barriers there’s pure white, absence and calm. Except for scary Guardians that linger in there. #fantasybooksky #writingcommunity

#WIPSnips #amwriting #writingcommunity #writers #writesky Short snip because holy shit, spoilers. But I don't have many hats in my wips & this one is iconic (to me 😂). To be clear, this is NOT a normal outfit here. From #Tenement, my dystopian mystery about people living in an infinite building.

So many ‘hats’ in this story … so many … From ‘The Big Feat’. #WiPSnips
