Ideas come easily, but words elude me—such is the struggle of a writer.

Write a character experience grief in two sentences. I’ll go first:
It wasn’t pain he felt, but absence—reality was just beyond his reasoning as he wrestled with the concept of her being dead. He had lost her—much like his breath and footing—left to stumble, to struggle, alone.

If you have French translations, make sure they're available for sale on Kobo.

One poem, two endings. A reflection of the fracture I now carry— grief and resilience sharing the same breath. All I can do is breathe.

A concept I explore in my book is the cost of peace and the transitions within death. It was inspired by the positive relationship between myself and my children’s father. Ironically he died this week… it makes me look at my book differently #authorsky #booksky #writersky #suicideawareness

Writing is my therapy, typically. However I just experienced a loss that leaves little room for creativity. I yearn for my pen and hope my words return to me quickly.

Atrocities guide me.
They call me Serenity.
In my wake is Calamity.
When I’m absent, it’s Deniability.
I am Nythys.

Also started the final book in my duology.

The pursuit of power doesn’t discriminate—even when chasing a just cause. As echoed in my book Threaded By Night

My completed book-Threaded By Night- puts a spin on the more common #romantasy tropes. I’ve got a male #damsel. A female warrior thirsty for blood. And a psychic bond that is emotional over steamy . #authorsky #querying #📚🦋 #writinglikeimrunningoutoftime

I’m going more dystopian-futuristic meets slasher-cabin horror. With an unlikely romance b/w two survivors.

Query Tip: Authors, don’t self reject. If your MS doesn’t match a #MSWL 100% that’s okay. Take a shot. You never know. ❤️

I began putting #queries in for my first book. Thought I’d rest my brain—nope, here I am writing another book. Anyone like #horrorromance I don’t see it often.

“You all have grown so weak,” she purred, a hand catching his chin, “I gave your kingdom so much and accepted my purgatory, but you say it isn’t enough.”

She wasn’t born angry.
They forged her fury with their forgetfulness.

The Maidens DNF, but I will return.
I got the itch to write after reading TOG and have been glued to my keyboard since.

I’m feeling really burnt out. Between work, school, and familial responsibilities… books and writing have been going to the back burner. I’m so sad without my passions, but too tired to indulge.

If you enjoyed Jerry Spinelli’s Stargirl, then you will love Flipped.

#PrideandPrejudice the blueprint for every enemies-to-lovers romance. Mr. Darcy is the OG black cat boyfriend. He’s saving reputations, settling family drama, and falling in love while barely speaking in full sentences. Love a man who just handles things without needing a to-do list. #booksky #📚🦋

Most people probably aren’t tracking this but Senate Republicans just started an all-night voting marathon that will allow them to gut Medicaid and increase child hunger while giving handouts to billionaires like Elon Musk.

I will ignore all of the stupid misogyny. However, I can’t ignore the stupidity of the characters when Mina began showing Lucy’s same symptoms. I will give credit where credit is due. The lore to Dracula allowed for the world of vampirism to build and flourish.

This is why you fight these cowards.

The moment you stand up to them, they crumble.

Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights.

He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

Julianne Moore says her book about embracing differences was removed from Pentagon-run schools | CNN Oscar winner Julianne Moore claims her children’s book “Freckleface Strawberry” was banned by the Department of Defense’s Education Activity, a global network of 160 schools serving military families.

It’s about having red hair and freckles FFS and how to be cool with that when other kids make fun of it. By that twisted logic, you’d have to ban pretty much every children’s book, old and new www.cnn.com/2025/02/17/e...

Bram Stoker’s #Dracula was completed via #AudioBook. I usually hate audio books, but this one was so enjoyable and immersive. I love connecting the classic tale to modern vampire stories. The lore lives on! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #bookreview #booksky

Update #booksky
It was a beautiful story that moved at a dream like pace. Every reveal and twist made my jaw drop and my heart hammer. Short and sweet, I fell in love with the MCs. Four star read!
