This retreat isn’t for everyone. But if you love books, bookstores, and bookish friends, it might be for you. 📚 Nov 20–22, 2026 Comment RETREAT for details. #Bookish #BookishCommunity #Readers #BookLovers #BookishRetreat

Check out this TikTok I posted! ▶️Watch the full video now! www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8s2GyGM/

Dialogue tags have one job: tell the reader who’s speaking. Don’t overcomplicate them. Sometimes a simple he said is exactly right. And sometimes an action beat can do even more. What’s your biggest dialogue pet peeve? #WriterTipWednesday #WritingTips #AmWriting #WritingCommunity #Books

Tell us your main character’s job, then write a paragraph for your WIP that naturally works it into the story. We can’t wait to meet them. #WritingCommunity #AmWriting #Writers #writingprompts #WIP

Morning: Matt Haig at WGBH. Night: Future Famous Authors w/ Lora Lacey. One reminded me why I love books, the other why I built this community. Motivational Monday Keep showing up. #MotivationMonday #books #IndieAuthor #Readers #AuthorLife

Self-Care Sunday and I’m spending it listening to readers talk about The Immigrant’s Wife. Every review, recommendation, and kind word means more than you know. ❤️ #Books #HistoricalFiction #TheImmigrantsWife #BookRecommendation #Readers @kensingtonbooks.bsky.social

“Top 10 read of the year.” I don’t take that lightly. Thank you for this incredible review ❤️ #books #BookRecommendations #amreading #authorsofinstagram #theimmigrantswife

My baby girl grew up strong… every photo feels like a memory and a goodbye I wasn’t ready for. I blinked and she became a high school graduate—set to the soundtrack of my heart breaking and swelling at the same time. #graduationday #classof2026 #proudmom #mybabygirl #bittersweet

I didn’t plan on this… but I ended the day in sparkles ✨ Funny how something so simple can shift your mood. #SparkleFriday #OOTD #MoodShift #StyleDiary #EverydayJoy

Today was a reminder that life can change so fast. Hug the people you love. ❤️ #lifeisfragile #hugyourpeople #reflection #family #griefjourney

Still time to read Every Broken Angel by @loralacey before our FFA TikTok discussion Monday at 7:30 PM EST 📚✨ #Books #BookClub #Readers

Honestly, this feels less like a trend and more like someone turned my brain into a sketchbook. ✨ Also thank you to @HollyReads📚 for sending me the prompt because this might be the most me thing I’ve ever posted. ❤️ #books #authors #ReadingLife #Writers #CozyVibes

Writing isn’t about motivation. It’s about showing up anyway. ✍️ #WritingCommunity #AmWriting #WritingTips #AuthorLife #Writers

This morning was exactly what I needed. Hope everyone had a good day today 🌊 #LakeLife #CozyVibes #books #PeacefulMoments #WritersLife

Twist of the Day Tuesday 📚✨ Your MC finds something from childhood… and realizes it had far more significance than they ever knew. #writers #PlotTwist #Books #WritingCommunity #AmWriting

Motivational Monday. Do what you love! #motivation #success #passion #enjoythejourney

Currently reading The Washashore by Christopher Mirabile and already hooked by the moody coastal atmosphere, small-town secrets, and “just one more chapter” mystery. 🌊📚✨ Perfect for fans of character-driven crime fiction. #CurrentlyReading #MysteryBooks #CrimeThriller #Readers

FFA Readers Retreat (Nov 20–22, 2026) is a cozy weekend of slow mornings, books, coffee, and reconnecting with stories + yourself. Details in bio. #ReadersRetreat #BookishCommunity #CozyReads #Books #SelfCareWeekend

Finished Life & Death & Giants and I can already tell this is one of those books that stays with you long after the final page. Quietly immersive and definitely a book club discussion kind of read. 📚✨ #Books #Bookstagram #BookReview #BookClubBooks #Books

You do not have to know anyone to come. ❤️ A cozy weekend for readers filled with books, coffee, conversation, and connection. ☕📚✨ #FFAbookishretreat #BookishCommunity #ReadersRetreat #CozyVibes #BookLovers

Not a single sparkle in sight for Sparkle Friday ✨😂 But I am wearing a top I love and somehow successfully wearing a strapless bra, so honestly that feels like the real accomplishment here. #SparkleFriday #ConfidenceStyle #FashionOver40 #CurvyFashion #RealStyle

Coffee. Books. Cozy hotel corners. Journals filled with thoughts and stories. ✨ Planning this bookish retreat is reminding me how much happiness lives in the smallest moments ☕📚 #BookishLife #ReadersRetreat #CozyVibes #Books #WritingCommunity

Just spoke w/ one of the local chocolate shops about possibly doing a chocolate tasting during the bookish retreat weekend if enough attendees are interested… honestly this is becoming such a cozy bookish weekend. #FFAbookishretreat #BookishCommunity #ReadersOfInstagram #WritingCommunity #CozyVibes

Sometimes the smallest details make fictional worlds feel real. Weather, noise, even humidity can shape your character’s mood, confidence, and choices. Writers, keep the questions coming for future Tip Wednesdays. ✍️ #WritingTips #AmWriting #writers #WritingCommunity #AuthorLife

Monday reminder: stop waiting for the perfect moment. Start before you feel ready. ⚒️✨ #MotivationalMonday #MondayMindset #WBYeats #WritersLife #KeepGoing

@write4eddie.bsky.social I want to hear more about the book you are querying

I was today years old when I learned that some Indigenous tribes in America held Black slaves. Why don’t we hear more about this part of history? History is rarely as simple as we’re taught it is. #history #HiddenHistory #LearnSomethingNew #AmericanHistory #DidYouKnow

Self-care Sunday ☀️📚✨ Currently daydreaming about cozy bookstores, literary dinners, and the kind of bookish weekend you never want to end. Still can’t believe the retreat signups are finally live. #SelfCareSunday #BookTok #BookishLife #ReadersOfTikTok #CozyVibes

93 reviews on The Immigrant’s Wife. 🥹 If we reach 100 this Mother’s Day weekend, it would mean the world to me. Thank you for reading, sharing, listening, and supporting this story. ❤️📚 #Books #HistoricalFiction #EmotionalReads #Audiobook #IndieAuthor

Your mom deserves a story that stays with her 💛 If she loves emotional historical fiction, The Immigrant’s Wife is available in audiobook, ebook, and paperback for Mother’s Day. #Books #MothersDayGift #HistoricalFiction #Audiobook #Authors

Sharing Saturday:Today’s horrifying job offer: $150/hour to help AI learn how to write books, plays, short stories 😳😰😱. Imagine telling artists to build the machine that takes their livelihood and calling it innovation. #WritingCommunity #books #AI #Writers #Authors

Think About It Thursday: I’m designing book bags for the Future Famous Authors Retreat and I’m obsessed… BUT I’m not ordering swag unless this retreat is real. PA. Spring or fall? Are you in—or am I just daydreaming? #ThinkAboutItThursday #books #BookCommunity #BookRetreat

Most writers are filling their scenes w/ conversation that sounds real but does nothing. If you can remove a line of dialogue & nothing changes, it doesn’t belong in your story. Skip the small talk.Start where something shifts. #WritersTipWednesday #AmWriting #WritingAdvice #DialogueWriting #Author

Not me randomly spotting my own book on a shelf like this. They had me out for a signing in May 2024—and they’re still carrying it. Indie bookstores really do matter. #authorsoftiktok #BookTok #indiebookstore #writersoftiktok #debutauthor

A normal phone call—until a tiny background sound doesn’t match where they claim to be. In that moment, everything unravels. #TrustTheDetails #StoryTwist #SuspenseWriting #PlotTwistMoment #WritingInspiration

You don’t need more hours in the day—you need a clearer path. Every direction leads somewhere, but only one leads where you actually want to go. Choose it. Start walking. Today changes everything. #MotivationalMonday #ChooseYourPath #StartToday #FocusedLife #MakeItHappen

#creatorsearchinsights We’ve been doing life together for over 40 years… road trips, kids, everything in between. Somehow this was our first real tropical trip together—and it was even better than I imagined ❤️🌴 #40yearfriendship #girlsgetaway #tropicaltrip #friendshipgoals

So proud of my little “Bunky” graduating from CU Boulder as a mechanical engineer 🥹 time flew #CUBoulder #MechanicalEngineer #GraduationDay

Sparkle Friday in Denver… and yes, we made it happen ✨ Didn’t pack sparkle, so I borrowed it—and honestly? That feels on brand. Sometimes you don’t need the perfect plan… just the right friends. #SparkleFriday #DenverLife #OOTD #BorrowedFit #GetReadyWithMe
