Sorry for your loss 💜

In a journey woven with grief, healing, and the tender ache of second chances, Cass must choose: cling to a love that’s killing her ... or embrace a future she never thought possible.

Twenty-nine-year-old Cassandra Green is running out of time.

A rare and devastating condition is causing a plant to bloom in her lungs, fed by the unrequited love she’s never been able to let go of.

"I’m interested in love stories that may not fit the definition of romance, such as found family, platonic soulmates, and relationships without a happily ever after."

I want a book that feels like Fahrenheit 451 #MSWL

That's amazing!! Well done!

Yesterday the film I wrote for the 48hr film project in Amsterdam premiered. We had a blast making it but I wasn't expecting much.

6 nominations and 2 wins later for best writing and best film and I'm still reeling.

I'm having a hard time finding any literary agents willing to consider a novella (32k words) - does anyone have any recommendations, or should I try self-publishing? Any advice welcome!

I wonder, how many stories do people work on at a time? Do you nurse one story to completion? Or do you wrote snippets for multiple stories as inspiration strikes?

After weeks of being 'too busy' I finally sat down and churned out some words today. Feeling like I'm back in the game!

First pie chart is how aspiring authors think novel writing works, with about 1/4 of the pie for inspiration, more than 3/4 for writing the first draft, and a small portion being editing. The second pie chart shows how writing a novel actually works, with a sliver for inspiration, a sliver for writing the first draft, less than 3/4 for editing and more than 1/3 for wishing you’d never started the damn thing.

How writing works. True?

Although the feeling of wishing you’d never started the damn thing eventually gives in to excitement if you keep at it. The trick is getting over that hump!
