While this may be the type of post that one normally puts out once the #book is published, I thought I would share it now. I've learned a few things when writing this #novella... www.instagram.com/p/DM5bxLtMEY...

this has been struggling to find momentum, so if you've been thinking of backing it, now's the time! and remember, you can get an ebook copy for the low price of $10CAD/$7USD

I wrote this #poem about 4 years ago & thought I'd share it again. #writing #acting #dance #music #art Let the Writers Dream Let the writers dream let them weave words of light nonsense and heavy troubles... tmcfarlanewrites.wordpress.com/2025/06/27/l...

Fellow authors, I love you, and I know it feels like we don’t have a choice, but B&N and Am*zon both scheduled sales this week to preempt Independent Bookstore Day, a hugely vital source of income for indie bookstores. Please don’t promote their sales; please promote your local indie this week.

"Untroubled" There is a beauty in dark thoughts as they fall softly upon the soul and seep into its pores tbmhorror.com/dark-poetry-... #darkpoetry #writingcommunity #writer

Lost Tired of the fight My mind relinquishes Peel back the layers Expose my flesh With lifeless eyes that have seen too much... tbmhorror.com/dark-poetry-... #darkpoetry #writingcommunity #writer

"Alone With My Thoughts", one of my dark #poems from TBM Horror Experts. When I am alone with my thoughts they bleed into my insecurities and fester like sores that will never heal... tbmhorror.com/dark-poetry-... #darkpoetry #writingcommunity #writer

Happy Freedom To Read Week!📖 Freedom to Read Week, founded in 1984, encourages Canadians to defend their right to publish, read. and write freely, and widen understanding of censorship's negative effects on readers, writers and publishers. #FTRWeek #freedomtoreadweek #FTRWeek2025 #readers #books

For the first time, I have written a #darkpoem that may need a trigger warning. The creative mind is weird sometimes. Scratch that. The #creative mind is weird all the time. #darkpoetry #writingcommunity

My #novella draft has been given back to me by one of my #readers. I'm hoping this may be the last round before I can #query it. Nothing beats an amazing reader. Their motivation is to help you create the best story possible, and they are invaluable. #cozysupernatural #newauthor
