*pssssst*
Hey
You know that one project?
That one you've wanted to write FOREVER except it's scary as hell & maybe you don't feel good
enough or brave enough or strong enough?
Spend 15 min on it today
Keep the dream alive
Even a pot on the back burner needs to occasionally be stirred
It looks fantastic!! 🩷🩷

I am so excited and profoundly grateful to announce my adult debut!!! ❤️🎉
This book is for anyone who has ever had to carry something alone for much too long. For the misunderstood. For those who have had to learn to choose themselves.
@melissarechter.bsky.social and I are going on an adventure!
Ahh!! SO excited to work together on this!! ❤️🍄🐦⬛

Would love to see more cozy mysteries! Whether it’s a traditional one a la Amanda Flower or something a bit more in the vein of DIAL A FOR AUNTIES.
I love bookish or cooking premises, something that is lightly paranormal (think witches or a friendly ghost.) and an animal companion!

Congrats! ❤️🎉
19.02.2025 15:35 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0Seriously, creative folks: Don't be afraid to let people know your stuff is out there for them, or worry that "now is not the time for that." People are stressed and freaked out and looking for the things that will give them a moment of rest and joy. It is EXACTLY the time for what we do. Tell them.
