It’s Barnes and Noble pre-order sale time!!!! 🩵🩵

THRILLED to share! This one’s about grief (full Victorian mourning dress, anyone?) but also about joy. A precocious 7-yr-old Sherlock, enemies to lovers, four interwoven mysteries (one about vegetables), emotionally constipated banter, flirting w/science facts, horse chases, love & so much more

Well, it's a bummer that @mercwolfmoor.bsky.social and my book of MESSED UP DEER didn't fund this time. Obviously, we're blue. But we're not giving up completely, and hope to revive the project soon when we're ready to tackle it again. Stay tuned, deers! ❤️🦌

New neighbor just moved in

I have 3 creative moods: ining / \ / p \ / \ rocrastination ------- erfectionism

So excited to sub to this one! And just read, tbh

Aaaaaahhhhhh it looks like THE LAST SOUL AMONG WOLVES is up on Netgalley?! Excuse me while I panic and hide... (But also, if you want it, go get it!)

I saw someone say AI is useful because it generates ideas. My dude, I'm full of ideas. I have docs and docs marked under 'ideas.' I have outlines and fragments of stuff I might work on. Trunked stories galore. Even if I continue to write a novel a year for the next 40 years I won't run out of ideas.

When a former ghosthunter is thrust back into the orbit of her controlling sister, she must unearth the secrets left behind by their notorious forebears or repeat their family’s vicious past HILL HOUSE x THE GROWNUP x A HEAD FULL OF GHOSTS #OS #AG #A #H

Just SO excited for this anthology!

So I desperately want this thing to fund because I will read the *shit* out of it. But also because I'm not sure where the hell else I'm going to sub the weird fucking thing that poured onto the page yesterday to try for this. Go support the hell out of this antho! Look at the anchor authors! :D

This episode gave me goosebumps for 1 hour and 36 mins straight. I burned dinner and screamed into the wall a little bit as a treat 💀

I’ve gotten up three times in the last half hour to get a laptop charger Battery’s at 15% and dropping, so maybe THIS time will be the one 🫠

The answer is write more, unfortunately

bookish checkpoint!! Last 📚 Network Effect by Martha Wells - Loved! Current 📚 Some Desperate Glory- By Emily Tesh Next 📚 Piranesi by Susanna Clarke

I want a poster of this cover 😭

Maybe if I lie face down all my work will do itself.

I’m so excited to be making this move with Mara!!!

This draft is done!!!! Spooky Gothic sisters ghost story about how terrifying love can be 👻

No lap? Now worries. Cleo has perfected the passive aggressive perch. It’s mostly spite and claws.

unsolicited ✨writing✨ advice: write the thing even if it's not gonna get published, even if you don't think it's the best thing ever, even if someone else can do it better, even if it's unserious, even if it's self-indulgent, even if it's pulpy, even if it's navel-gazey, just WRITE THE THING.

Two and ONE HALF chapters away from finishing this draft!! It’s dark, twisty, & layered—super toxic gothic sisters separated by almost two centuries, and I love it even more than I thought I would. But I’m also ready to write something where I can make jokes again 😂

Let’s goooo!!!

Without downloading any new pics, where are you mentally?

I woke up late today, and my whole day has felt jacked as a result, but in my defense, the sun didn’t exactly wake up either

I love Murderbot so deeply 😍🦾

I said this in a reply to someone else, but someone else needs to hear this: You are a real person doing real work to make real art. Don’t forget.

writing and drawing are our passions, something we love more than everything else, but that doesn't mean we don't go through it at times, and that's fine. struggling to create, going through a block, feeling exhausted. it happens sometimes. you're no less of a writer/artist for dealing with that

11/11 "We're looking for you. Writing is very solitary and publishing is very frustrating, but let the hope live in you that we're looking for you. Every time we get a submission, there's hope in us that this will be the manuscript that we will fall in love with."

We were promised snow & but it was all soggy slush instead, so I baked a giant loaf of bread to make my own cozy

These two are finally friends 😍😍

One of my all time favorites
