My novella "PΓ’tissier et Γtranger" will be released very soon!
Do you like baking? Intrigue? Adventure? Romance? All that went into the batter, and the result is about to come out of the oven.... Does "cozy thriller" even make sense? Hm.
As always I'd be happy to send a review ebook on request.
"deprofessionalizing" fields that are majority-women...not by accident!

I know that they will always do the cruelest thing and the most racist thing, but the extent to which these particular fuckers will also do the stupidest thing.
Fire up the phones. Make every fucking member of the GOP own this.
Fuck them.
Every time someone gets on this website and says "lol they voted for it" about a state that has been slowly bleeding out since they gutted the VRA and signed off on doing All The Overt Racism Again?
Those were the times you should have been fighting this ongoing fight.

Hey folks!
Due to a series of unforeseen expenses, I need to raise some cash before royalty season rolls around at the beginning of April. Because of that, I am going to do something I don't usually do and offer paid mentoring sessions for aspiring writers.

Judge Biery signed the order with a photo of Liam and two bible verses: The first is "But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven." The second is simply "Jesus wept."
Astonishing thing for a judge to do.
