🎵 one more time 🎵

It’s been a long time coming . . . but I’m writing a YA fantasy duology 🦚💘🏰 THE PEACOCK THRONE comes out in Fall 2026 from Delacorte Press and @getunderlined.bsky.social and I could NOT be more excited!!

cried so hard at the new Bridget Jones that I gave myself a migraine AMA

incredible how I get my clearest l ideas exactly 3 minutes after having closed my laptop

began 2025 as I mean to go on (turned a 3k chapter into an 8k chapter), belated Happy New Year to one and all

starting Monday off by crying about Gill’s send off on gbbo, this week is going to be Great 👍🏽

me when I promise to use a social media platform and then never in fact use it

usually I can't bring myself to watch a show/read a book if I can't buy into the main characters' names. the exception rn is tsitp

Rocky aur Rani’s subversion of the construction of the (rich uc Hindu Punjabi) Indian family as the nation is so clever, not least because it allows Johar to highlight its patriarchal roots without having to challenge any of its more politically/culturally sensitive tenets

love joining new platforms to share my thoughts and feelings until I no longer have thoughts or feelings 😊
