I've been manifesting for a book deal, but I seem to have manifested other writing opportunities instead. 😂 My list keeps growing. Some things are [redacted]. I think it's all spread out enough I'll survive but unless it's the book deal, I need the manifesting to slow down. #WriteSky

Anyone heading to the Georgia Romance Writers Moonlight & Magnolias conference this week? I’m excited, but it’s my first time going! #WriteSky #RomanceWriters

One thing about entering writing contests this year, it forced me to write three different length synopses for A Bid on Love earlier this year. Which I forgot about. I was very happy when I needed a synopsis tonight and discovered I already have one that I just have to tweak. Whew. #WriteSky

Oooo forgot to share part 3 of the Lego typewriter! www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8SbdLYY/

Ugh. Back in the compression sleeve time. Apparently starting SportsWIP edits threw me into carpal tunnel land. I knew I hated editing. Even my body is revolting!!😂😂 Hopefully this helps.

I'm honored to have my short horror story Under the Surface featured on the members-only portion of this episode of The NoSleep Podcast! Absolutely fantastic job by the producer, voice actors, & composer. 👏👏👏 It was truly amazing and so freaking fun to hear my words this way. #WriteSky

My story does appear on the premium version of the episode, but I received a download of it. Would anyone be interested in a private listen party? If that’s something of interest I might see what I can do about that! #WriteSky

I’m thrilled to announce that my horror story Under the Surface is on The NoSleep Podcast on Season 23 Episode 12 out today! I still can’t believe I was accepted to have my words produced for the show! And got paid for it! What a dream come true! I can’t wait to listen to it. #WriteSky

I got sucked into the show High Potential accidentally. I’m enjoying it. It’s kinda like Psych as a drama without the pretending to be a psychic part.

These are in my parents’ basement. I hope to one day have the space to have a bookshelf to display them. Pretty sure it’s the whole collection but I didn’t pull them all out to check. One of the most influential series of my childhood for sure. I’ve recently started rereading them. #Animorphs

I’ve got two friends with book birthdays today! ✨Labyrinth’s Heart by Jaylee Austin is a monster romance and the first in a collab of six releasing over the next six weeks ✨ Chasing Stars by Linny Mack is my agency sibs second book in her Cape May contemporary romance series! Both in KU #BookSky

Current obsession. Homemade dirty chai latte. Giant mug with two vanilla chai tea bags, sugar, a shot of espresso, and oat milk (steamed when I feel like dealing with the milk steamer).

I didn’t win a Stiletto Award but was honored to be a finalist & them mailing out certificates to finalists was so nice! The Tinsel Twist lies at the intersection of cozy holiday romance & gripping romantic suspense & is available for publication. #onsubmission #editors #publishers #MSWL

I take a lot of joy in the art on my walls and that most of it is by artists I've met. I have many prints but quite a few originals. Sometimes I joke about making little name plates like an art gallery. Most of it has sentimental value. Some people put art on their bodies, but I put it on my walls.

Nothing makes my brain squirrel more than trying to brainstorm a new idea... I am not complaining, but then I have to settle on one. #WriteSky

I inadvertently consumed some allergens while at Dragon Con, which causes inflammation, paired with walking like 15k a day, & my feet/ankles are still swollen. Finally seeing my ankles again. Hopefully I can prop my feet up this weekend & be back to normal next week. 😩

New author interview up on the Patreon today! We spoke to Caleb Bethea @calebbethea.bsky.social, author of glitter-gore fest "Disco Murder City". We talk about identity, art and fucking up genre conventions. This may be the only time you see W.G. Sebald and latex mentioned in the same sentence.

Wow. Six seconds into the first regular season NFL game, a player is carted off on the truck for a leg injury and another player is thrown out of the game for unsportsmanlike conduct. Six seconds. I hope this isn’t setting the tone for the whole season. I think they need a do over. 😬💀

I want to hype up a Con. If you’re able to get to Peachtree City, GA, Oct 17-19, consider joining us at Multiverse Con. It’s a small, inclusive, geeky space, & this year we’re supporting The Trevor Project. Plus… I’m a new Co-Director for the WRITE track. #WriteSky www.multiversecon.org

Blog time! I know it’s not quite end of summer but I saw we had our last sunset after 8pm until April, so I’m calling it. 😂 I missed the blog hop last month, so this has updates on lots of things like Dragon Con, short stories, & a bit about my new role with Multiverse Con. 😀 🔗🔽 💜💜💜 #WriteSky

Goal achieved. #WriteSky

Ah, Mary Robinette Kowal was amazing!

I am le tired. Day 1 of DragonCon down! 1) an hour into standing in the badge line for my partner 2) the dragon I crocheted for the write track 3) my volunteer badge 4) my volunteer shirt #DragonCon #DragonCon2025 #WriteSky

It was hectic getting to this point but I can’t wait to hang out with my author friends and make new ones at DragonCon this week. #WriteSky

I have so much to do to get ready to leave for Dragon Con. 😩😩😩

I am so looking forward to Dragon Con. I can't wait to be around my peeps and meet new peeps and not be at my job and dealing with my boss for a week and getting to pretend I'm living that full-time author life for a few. I need this break so bad. #WriteSky

Of course this blue bunny blueberry cheesecake ice cream is delicious and of course it's also a "limited time" flavor. I hope that means it's an every summer flavor because omg.

I still can't believe I opened an email yesterday that started with "We're happy to say we've accepted your story..." I've re-read it at least a dozen times today just to make sure I didn't hallucinate it.

My partner has just discovered NPR Tiny Desk Concerts.... I feel like I've failed him that he didn't know of these sooner but I'm enjoying his exploration.
