If you ever message me between the hours of 10p-6a (EST) please accept my apologies on behalf of my insomniasona (the barely conscious me who randomly wakes up in the middle of the night to swipe away my notifs while convinced I'll remember them in the morning). She's an overconfident B.

Cranked out 3 chapters and a whole synopsis over spring break, woohoo!! 🙌

Great sapphic romance! Charlie is now one of my all time fav MCs. So relatable. Light on the spice, but the story of a hockey player becoming a figure skater is really great. The romance is beautiful. A sapphic "the cutting edge." Highly recommend!! @lesbrary.bsky.social @thelesbianreview.com

Today is the day my dream comes true and IT'S A LOVE/SKATE RELATIONSHIP hits shelves, e-readers, and audiobook streamers!! Love/Skate is a piece of my heart that now belongs to all of you, too. I hope you love Charlie and her story as much as I do. ❤️⛸️🏳️‍🌈

My book releases in two weeks and I'm not sure I'll ever feel ready to serve this piece of my heart to so many readers 🫣 I hope they love these characters as much as I do!

It's impossible to be sad when a dog or a cat rests their head in your lap.

Here's a reminder to sanitize your screens and keys!

My friend's toddler refers to cemeteries as "zombie holders" so now I do too.

Some ☀️summer stats☀️ ✅Words written (Love/Skate edits): 22k ✅Words written (WIP): 28k ✅Books read: 4.5 ✅Puzzles completed: 4 ✅Show seasons binged: 3 ✅Puppies adopted: 1

I'm about 2/3 through this developmental edit and so far I've added 4 brand new chapters plus several new scenes. Writing my gaymo dork baby Charlie again after 6+ months of querying/submission/negotiation etc is pure joy. I love this story so much and I'm so damn lucky I get to publish it 😭🥹😊

Hit the midpoint on this big edit today! Feels like a win! 💪🥰

Am I the only paranoid writer who emails chapters to herself after hitting the save button on Word? Especially now that I stopped using gdocs and don't have auto save. 😫 I have software trust issues.

I want to get a good grade in editing my book, something both normal to want and possible to achieve. #author #authors #kidlit #writers

June might be over, but remember, support LGBTQ+ writers year round while you shop, write your best of roundups, add to your Goodreads, build your library displays, plot your school’s visits, build your panels… the list goes on. There are so many ways you can show up. 💜
