I am way too into city planning, haha. Learning about it, seeing what works and doesnโ€™t work, etc.

Next character card is Clare, Eva's love interest (it's
complicated when you get a crush on your brother's best friend). Clare is from my WIP YA Contemporary novel
"Our Last Fall."

The character picture was created with makowka character maker II from picrew. #amwriting

I had so much fun putting together a little character card for the main character of my YA Contemporary WIP "Our Last Fall." She's struggling, but she's here. #amwriting

The classes and instructors were excellent, and by the end I had a finished 100 pages of a WIP manuscript. And best of all, I met and became friends with other amazing sapphic writers that I still write with. I can't wait to start Writing Academy 2 later this year! 3/3

This year, I completed Golden Crown Literary Society's Writing Academy 1 course and attended the graduation during GCLS Con, where I met a lot of my classmates in person for the first time and even alumni from previous years. It was such a great experience! 2/3

Taking a 9-month sapphic novel-writing program was the best thing I did for my writing!ย #gcls #gcls2024 #writingacademy #writercon 1/3

I decided not to set the story in a Disney Park and instead set it in the County Fair since it's such a fun, varied, and chaotic setting. I love the idea of doing things that feel right to you but might feel wrong to others. Is there a right or wrong way to grieve? 4/4

I started asking myself questions: why would someone do that? How would they go about it? Can they get arrested for that (yes! It's a misdemeanor in California). 3/4

It had never occurred to me that someone would try that! Apparently, the most popular rides for people to spread ashes at are the Haunted Mansion and Pirates of the Caribbean. It happens so often that cast members are actively on the lookout for anyone trying to put their loved one to rest there.

A questionย I love to ask and be asked is: what inspired your story? Inspiration can come from so many different sources, from other stories or real-life events. For "Our Last Fall," the initial nugget of inspiration came from an article I read about how many people sneak ashes into Disney Parks. 1/4

Will they get away with it? Can they go to jail for this?! And can they make it out with all their friendships and messy teenage feelings intact? #amwriting #newauthor 3/3

They'll ride rollercoasters, eat spicy food, and play rigged fairground games, all while Eva also navigates her budding romance with her friend Clare, the first girl she's ever crushed on. Oh, and they're also there to secretly spread her recently deceased older brother's ashes. 2/3

Hello and thanks for checking out my []! I'm an author currently working on my first novel, 'Our Last Fall' (working title). It is a YA contemporary story about Eva, a 15yo Puerto Rican girl who gathers her friend group for their yearly visit to the County Fair! 1/3
