I am always impressed by folks who write in English, and it’s not their first language. I wish I had the ability to write full works in another language. So much admiration here!

Thank you! My fingers weren’t finging so well today, so my rosettes got kinda wonky. But they still tasted good!

Baked a dozen lemon cupcakes and thought it would be fun to do the rosettes in yellow and pink, like pink and yellow lemonade! This is all in celebration that my upcoming space opera romcom (with the meet-awkward of the 25th century), Hot Wings and Sauciness, is officially in production.

My daily achievement:

I encouraged @jamiesonwolf.bsky.social to bake a First Draft Cake.

This movement will be my legacy!

IT’S ALWAYS IMPORTANT TO MENTION CAKE!

I loathe: β€œYou MUST write every day.” So much so, I was invited by Write magazine to write an article about it. Here’s a copy on my website:

I am fully aware how bizarre it seems to be trying to promote my books or to say how excited I am about the production status of my next book … when the world is falling apart.

I’m just waiting on confirmation of my French phrases, then Hot Wings and Sauciness is off to my editors!

Fun fact: The subject line of my email to the translator was, β€œPardon my French..."

I just frivolously spent a ridiculous amount of money.

*pauses*

*checks notes*

Oh, sorry. All I did was buy groceries.

You are not fail! I didn’t do anything for all of the First Draft Fall. Not a thing! Then in the new year, POOF!

You’ll write when you’re ready!

When I was stuck and full of whelms of self-doubt, @jamiesonwolf.bsky.social said to me, β€œWrite the story you want to write.”

It was such simple advice, but it unlocked something in me. And now I modify it so I also write the story that I need to read. 😊 #SpoonieAuthChat

My good friend sent me a reel featuring an adorable seal!

I said it was cute as phoque.

I’ll see myself out.
