Feeling so much more like myself more. All it took was a haircut.

Yesterday I reset my goals for the next week, but today was back to work. I've finished revising another 3 chapters of Triple Play and I've finished the main outline for Cat in the Bakery 3. And I totally did not come up with a new story idea yesterday. Nope. That couldn't have been me. 🤥

I’m about 1/3 of the way through revisions on Triple Play so far. I’m still hoping to have this done before Christmas. I’ll be getting a form ready for beta readers around the same time, so if you’re interested in providing feedback for a queer baseball romance, be on the lookout for that.

Yeah, Lou, Matt knows you pretty well. Have you pre-ordered your copy yet? This comes out in just over a week(3 days if you order direct from me)! books2read.com/wrappedupinmurder fallon-brown-shop.fourthwall.com/products/wra... #booksky #teasertuesday #cozymystery 🌈 📚

Gotta keep my eye on the ball. I really want to get Triple Play to beta readers in January, so that means I need to have these revisions finished by Christmas, then I can do a read through to make sure I haven't left any gaping holes. So, this is going to be my main focus moving forward.

Today I decided to focus on just 3 of my projects, working on 1 step for each of them before doing some non-writing tasks then coming back. That worked really well this morning, but I seem to have lost all motivation for this afternoon.

I split my weekly goals into the smallest amount I need to do each day to meet them. I've already gotten through 4/9 of them. I may change this up for tomorrow, but we'll see.

My next Kickstarter campaign is up in pre-launch! I'll be doing a cover reveal through the Kickstarter updates, so if you want to see that, or to know when it officially launches, be sure to follow the campaign. www.kickstarter.com/projects/fal... #booksky #kickstarter #queerromance

Other than a few marketing tasks this morning, today was about resetting my goals for the next week. I split my projects into 'starting rotation' and 'bullpen'. 1 project to focus on, & others to bring in when needed for relief appearances. You say baseball season is over, I say not in my world.

A *really* important distinction there, Lou. Have you pre-ordered Wrapped Up in Murder yet? It releases in less than a month(even earlier if you order direct from me)! Retailers: books2read.com/wrappedupinmurder Direct: fallon-brown-shop.fourthwall.com #booksky #teasertuesday #cozymystery 🌈 📚

Since I took the first half of last week off from writing, and am using Wednesday as my goal reset day, I decided to write through the weekend. Made some progress Saturday, working on all the projects. Yesterday was mostly marketing. I've written 1000 words already today, on just 1 project.

Are you looking for a book to feast on before the holidays start? Whether you're looking for a warm up with a romance or a mystery to cozy up with, check out the promos below:

Yesterday was pretty productive. I finished reworking a chapter for Triple Play, read through what I have writen for Around the Horn, and added another 800 words to Changeling. That's more than I wrote on that the last 2 months combined, so progress, yay!

After taking a few days off, I got back to my writing routine this morning. Finished adding a new scene to Triple Play. Was going to switch to adding new words to Around the Horn. Decided to read through what I had first, since I haven't working on it for a while. New words might wait until tomorrow

Yesterday was another rest day after the big 3 day challenge over the weekend. However I did get some plotting done on a few projects. Okay, so maybe I don't actually know the definition of 'rest'.

Lou's interests definitely started early. Did they get that handsaw, though? Wrapped Up in Murder comes out on 12/19. Or you can get it from my direct store on 12/12. book2read.com/wrappedupinmurder fallon-brown-shop.fourthwall.com #booksky #teasertuesday #cozymystery 🌈 📚

I don't know about you, but when it gets cold, I just want to curl up with a book. Granted, that's also what I want to do when it's hot, but still... If you feel the same, why not grab one of these books, whether you're looking for a cozy mystery or some romance, there's something for you there.

Over the weekend I participated in a #3day30k writing challenge. My goal was smaller. I planned to revise for 21 hours. I've never been great at math. Let's just say 7 hours of revisions is *a lot*. I managed 15 hours & almost 4500 new words for Triple Play. Still, I'm pretty happy with that.

I was all ready to get back to editing today. So of course I woke up with a headache. Hoping to push through it, but I may not get as much done as I'd hoped for today.

The first of my Kickstarter packages should be delivered to backers today, and I have the ones I need to sign and ship out headed my way. So, that means it's time to...start planning the next one, right? What do you mean, take a break? Is that something people do?

Spent some time last night and this morning figuring out deadlines for my projects. I'll have 3 releases next years, 2 more early in 2027. I'm also hoping to get my Bookstore Cousins series out in '27. I'll work on drafting the final book and editing the rest among the other stuff for next year.

Not the pumpkin pie! If you want to read more about this interaction, and the mystery Lou's sister wraps them up in, you can pre-order this book! Available in ebook and paperback. books2read.com/wrappedupinmurder #booksky #teasertuesday #cozymystery 🌈 📚

I grabbed some scenes from the first version I wrote of Triple Play because I was going to rework them into a prologue for the second version. Well, I've written a little over 1k of that prologue, and not a single word has come from those scenes. It isn't finished yet, though. So, we'll see.

More Jules? I am so here for that! I just backed Jules Cassidy, PI on @kickstarter.com www.kickstarter.com/projects/suz...

I have all the physical books ordered for my Kickstarter, which means now it's time to start getting the non-Kickstarter version(which basically just doesn't have the bonus short story included), ready to upload everywhere. And then Wrapped Up in Murder will officially be off my plate.

Yesterday I spent the morning making the proofreading edits on Wrapped Up in Murder. Then, I took an extra long lunch break to play. In the afternoon, I sent the digital copies out to Kickstarter backers. Next up is getting paperbacks sent out. But, today is for starting revisions on Triple Play.

It's my birthday and I'll write if I want to. Or read. Or cross-stitch. Or play games. Okay, actually I'm going to finish inputting proofreading changes to Wrapped Up in Murder and get that sent to Kickstarter backers. Then, that other stuff.

With friends like these... Haha. I really do love writing Lou and Cord's friendship. And there's no need to act mature with someone who knows you that well. Have you pre-ordered your copy yet? Unwrap the mystery next month! books2read.com/wrappedupinmurder #booksky #teasertuesday 🌈 📚

I got my physical copy of Wrapped Up in Murder on Saturday, and I've proofread the first 5 chapters. I'm going to continue that this afternoon, after I get some more words written on Til You Get There.

No tricks here! Wrapped Up in Murder is available for pre-order! books2read.com/wrappedupinmurder Also, both Fixing the Books(books2read.com/fixingthebooks) and Muffin to Die For(books2read.com/muffintodiefor) take place around Halloween if you want seasonal reads #LGBTQWriteAThon

Mostly treat with a few tricks thrown in. As usual, I tried to do a little too much. I did get Wrapped Up in Murder most of the way to published. Made progress on Triple Play. And I'm nearly ready to start fulfillment on my Kickstarter project. Overall I would say it was a treat. #LGBTQWriteAThon

Skeletons in the closet? Lou(Wrapped Up in Murder): Wouldn't see the big deal & just blurt anything out, so nope Rhys(Triple Play): He wouldn't call them skeletons, but won't talk about his childhood, even to his best friend. He'll talk about anything, at length, except for that. #LGBTQWriteAThon

Lou may have made more of a name for themself in their town than they realize. Have you pre-ordered you copy yet? books2read.com/wrappedupinmurder #booksky #teasertuesday #cozymystery 🌈 📚

Goals Day! This week's main priority is getting all the Kickstarter stuff ready to send out(digital editions anyway, still waiting on my physical proof). Other than that, adding revision notes for Triple Play, some plotting on Cat in the Bakery 3, maybe some drafting #LGBTQWriteAThon

Only a couple days of baseball left and then we're left with those *other* sports. Instead of despairing, you could pick up one of these sports romances. Not all of them are baseball related, but Rounding for Home is there, and a few others as well. books.bookfunnel.com/sportsromanc...

Check in day! High priority: Wrapped Up in Murder formatted and ordered proof Medium priority: Kickstarter bonus content filled in the scene grid for Triple Play. Low priority: 270 words on Til You Get There Suspect profiles for Cat in the Bakery 3 2 other goals I didn’t finish #LGBTQWriteAThon

I was inspired to write the Cat in the Bakery books because of a set of premade covers I saw while looking for one for The Garage Fridge Situation. And they were still available when I was ready to publish Muffin to Die For. It must have been fate. books2read.com/muffintodiefor #LGBTQWriteAThon

I(NB, 35) promised I wouldn't investigate any more murders in my small town. But, when my sister(F, 38) calls and asks for my help(which *never* happens) proving her best friend didn't kill her husband, what else am I supposed to do? Now my boyfriend(M, 37) is angry with me. AITA? #LGBTQWriteAThon

Character costume kits: Wrapped Up in Murder: A pair of jeans, t-shirt, and a toolbelt. A pair of gloves they forget in their truck Triple Play: Catcher's mask and glove, baseball jersey Cat in the Bakery 3: chef apron, maybe a stuffed cat to sit on their shoulder #LGBTQWriteAThon

But, will you, Lou? Really? ;) Have you pre-ordered Wrapped Up in Murder yet? It will be going out to Kickstarter backers in a couple weeks, and will be available more widely in December. books2read.com/wrappedupinmurder #booksky #teasertuesday #comingsoon #cozymystery 🌈 📚
