Oona Arlo Author💌 💕

my favorite part of editing is the part where I realize I've created a massive plot hole that I now need to go fix 😔 #writing #romanceauthor #writingcommunity

I don’t have perfect writing days. Just pockets of time in between the living that seems to happen with or without my consent. Words frantically typed and deleted and typed again between laundry and bedtime. These stories arrive, scrawled wildly in the margins of my life. Imperfect but entirely mine

Person on Threads: can you recommend a romance by a Black author for a teen girl?
Rando: here is my book about a 30-year-old white woman finding love after divorce

Hey, author friends, if you've been looking for a sign to make your own author planner... this is it. I made one (and called it The Daily Plot, hahaha). I'm so happy with the way it turned out! #aspiringauthor ##indieauthor #romanceauthor #planner

Usually while in rotting in the bath

I'm not sure what to post on here. But I'm hoping to find romance readers and authors who love talking about books, sharing recs, and funny bookish memes, like this one.

Let's do a little introduction post:

Hey! I'm Oona. I write romantic suspense novels in my spare time, but I'm really hoping to become a full-time author one day soon.

I have two daughters.
We have a cat named Keeks and a dog named Charlie.
I have OCD and ADHD and a husband type man.

The various stages of me writing this this g'damn book

##romancelandia

You're amazing 😫😫

Social media is becoming so fractured. Between writing and marketing my books, I barely have time to keep up with the new platforms, and as soon as I get the hang of one, a billionaire swoops in to ruin it completely 😫

So so proud of you my sweet friend

I got these affirmation cards for creatives 2 years ago and it's become such a huge habit to pull one at the start of my day. Sometimes we just need a little reminder. #romancelandia

Curvy Girl Summer was so good omg!!! Thank you for writing such a hilarious and real story!

If I ever feel this strongly about a book, I would actually be really scared for myself because wtf girl?

Men are South Africa's worst export, I fear.

Yaaaaaaaas

Some readers form parasocial relationships with their favorite authors, and some readers don't know the difference between fiction and reality.
