Thanks to Jacalyn Roland Photography for such wonderful pictures!
3/3
I didn’t have something in mind for an author photo that I’d always dreamed of. I’ve been so focused on editing, querying, editing some more, submission, editing AGAIN…that I kind of overlooked the other parts of the process that happen after you become a debut author.
2/3
Author photos are here and I’m taking a poll because how am I expected to choose?! So, which one is your favorite?
It’s strange to be at this stage in the process, because although I’ve spent years working towards being a published author, I never pictured this moment.

And keep an eye out on my social media because my editor sent me ✨two✨ galleys so there may be a giveaway in the future. 4/4

If you like YA romcoms with fake dating, rivals to lovers, aromantic AND asexual MCs, girls who are Too Much™️, boys who are “too soft,” or books that’ll make you laugh AND cry, you can add my debut on Goodreads—Not Your Typical Love Story is coming from @wednesdaybooks.bsky.social in 2027! 3/4

I spent many years not thinking I’d ever get here, but it’s really, truly happening. I couldn’t have asked for a better publishing team, and can’t wait until I get to share more about this book! 2/4

There are GALLEYS OF MY DEBUT!
The emotions I felt when I first held my book (and still feel every time I look at the galleys on my shelf) were…I don’t even know. A lot. A jumbled up mix of a whole freaking lot. 1/4

My debut will be out with Macmillan/Wednesday Books in early 2027!
Goodreads and StoryGraph 🔗s in my bio!
If you like smart ace girls who are Too Much™️ and quiet ace/aro neurodivergent boys who are “too soft,” stay tuned for more sneak peeks and other tidbits about the book—also ✨cover reveal✨ and preorder stuff coming in 2026! (Which really is just around the corner.)
19.10.2025 15:45 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0My debut follows Analeigh and Drew, two academic rivals who end up fake dating—her because it’s her only shot at her musical theater dreams, and him because it’s his only shot at saving the friendship that means the world to him.

It’s Ace Week 💜🤍🩶🖤 and so I thought it would be appropriate to post a sneak peek from my ace/aro debut book, Not Your Typical Love Story, which centers aspec teens at the heart of their own kind of love story.

17.10.2025 14:12 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0I left my job as a children’s book editor at LBYR just about three years ago and have missed working with authors. That was the best part of being an editor and was the hardest part to give up, so I’m excited to be able to work with a writer over the next few months to further develop their story.

Over on my Instagram people voted for what they wanted to see in celebration of my debut reaching 100 adds on Goodreads…and the winner was the first vs final opening! So here’s my cringy opening compared to the final—and a few other variations that existed along the way.
