There’s nothing like the satisfaction of finding a typo during a cold read on a super clean manuscript. 😌

Just spent two hours working on my safari story. I need to write the ending, but I’m going back through to clarify a few things because I don’t feel like I know my characters enough yet. Writing this draft has been a different process than with any of my previous books!

Did you know I'm Canadian? That's right! I live in Alberta, so when you buy my books, you're supporting a Canadian author! You can buy my books directly from me on my website or from pretty much any online or in-person bookstore. Thank you for your support. 💛

I love libraries. We're on vacation and my spouse needed Wi-Fi for a meeting, so we went to the local library and managed to get in to their little meeting pod. The librarian even noticed we had the light off and brought a sign over to tell us how to turn it on without interrupting. 💛

I just saw The Fifth Season by NK Jemisin described as romantasy and I want to scream. The Fifth Season is a brilliant fantasy novel and it is NOT A ROMANCE. Not every fantasy book by a woman is romantasy! Stop adding "rom" onto every fantasy novel that happens to be written by a woman!
