Decided to read a well known romance craft book with only two chapters left to write in my WIP. Now I’m questioning everything. AITA?

First really cold day means soup of the season on the stove! House smells excellent 🥰

Thank you! I look forward to your photos so much :)

11!

I’m missing it this year. So bummed, but I agree, it gets way too crowded for comfort sometimes.

Does autocorrect ever get anything right? Asking for a friend (me)

Oh wow, thank you so much! That’s really helpful!

Hey writer friends - does anyone use Buffer’s free plan for scheduling social media content? If so, what do you think of it? I used to like Planoly, but they’ve gotten rid of their free features and most of the others are too pricey right now.

I need to get up there! I love your photos of it so much!

#Romancelandia Houston! Come see me, Brenda Jackson and a crew of other great authors this weekend at the National Black Book Fest. Here's the schedule. nationalblackbookfestival.com/NBBF_2025_Sc...

Happy Diwali to my friends who celebrate! The triumph of good over evil, knowledge over ignorance, and light over darkness could not be more needed here in 2025. 🪔

Who’s solving the Louvre robbery?

Right answers only.

It was frustrating enough that I immediately sought out the book—but I can’t say that helped much.

5 movies to get to know me:

The Mummy (ofc)
The Princess Bride
The Sound of Music
Ocean’s 8
Aristocats

Oh god, this list is the stuff of my high school nightmares 😱

WIP Update: 31 chapters done out of the planned 39. Technically I know what should happen in 32, but struggling with where/how to begin this next scene. Characters mutinously silent.

I was hoping you’d catch it!

WIP update: 30 chapters completed of the planned 39. Time to bring this baby home! (But how)

That’s so funny, I just finished a book with this exact trope (Bridget’s Bane by Ruby Dixon)! Love it!

Sometimes the line between “we ballin” and “we bawling” is so thin, I swear.

I'm sorry I keep asking for help, but I literally have nowhere else to turn. I am doing my best to get back on my feet, both literally & metaphorically, but that will be exponentially harder if I lose my apartment. I desperately need $482 for rent & enough utilities to avoid shut off. Please.

WIP update: 27 chapters completed of the planned 39. Couple more pivotal events to wrap up but my finish line is in sight!

summer squash pizza This is the very best kind of dinner: it has five ingredients including the ones to make the pizza dough. It’s seasonal and it doesn’t care what else you had planned; it wants to be moved to the fr…

Went a little crazy at the farm/orchard stand yesterday, but we are now scarfing down this wonder of the world so…run, don’t walk to make it too! (Used a fam dough recipe, 3 colors of summer squash, & Progresso Italian seasoned breadcrumbs)

Due to some unfortunate missteps, Loud Cat has now tasted cottage cheese. I fear he has been irrevocably altered by this experience.

Sometimes the restarts are the best thing! I ripped out most of yesterday’s work this morning because the errors were just compounding. Hopefully today will be better! 🤞🏻

Sadly I did cast on a new thing. I’ve also managed to screw it up thrice today. Your way was better.

Knitted shawl and matching beanie hat depicted, in striping shades of wine and gray.

At last, the shawl and matching hat are done! Taking a minute to pat myself on the back and then back to my manuscript. It’s gonna be hard to part with these beauties. They’re so warm and light and soft.

Misread the decreases in this knitting chart, so here I am frogging three rows on DPNs. Super relaxing hobby, so glad I decided to take a break from my WIP to do this!

I got this book for Christmas last year!! It’s amazing!

Whoa very impressive!!
