This is a super pivotal moment for them that’s got a lot of healing for Rose after her divorce, and I love how consumed they are. 🤸‍♀️🕳️✨ #writinglifemonthly #writingcommunity #romanceauthors #romancewriters #amwriting #amwritingromance #writersofbluesky #mickandrose

I think that’s a newer coining, before it would’ve been something like two grumpies, but since I love cats I’ve been quick to adapt 🤣

👏 A hearty and sincere congratulations (and completely not surprised, tbh)!

Not sure if the #writersofbluesky #writingcommunity has caught wind of this (and maybe they’ve already announced here), but there’s a local NJ/NY group hosting a virtual get together/author intro on 20th August - I’ll be going, hope to see some of you! www.instagram.com/p/DNJG8QkOn7... #writers

I just love it so much. Love me a golden retriever x black cat dynamic, but two black cats choosing to black cat together is just. so. good. 🗣️

Ooh, tough one. There will usually be an initial seeded one and then more will follow organically as it develops and makes sense. For my current project, they’re very strangers to friends to lovers, and some black cat x black cat dynamics emerged from there. #romanceauthor #pretendpanel

Can we tell I really love so much about my current revision project? 😂🤸‍♀️🕳️ #writinglifemonthly #amwriting #amediting #romancewriter #writingcommunity #writersofbluesky #romancewriting #mickandrose

Romance, pretty much all flavors. I’ve read romcoms for the most part, because that’s what I write so it’s what I read because I enjoy it, but also to stay up-to-date on trends, etc., but I’ve been known to love romantasy, historical romance, and things with considerably less com in them. 💋

Also, LOVE that the snippet ended on, “Now you’re perfect.” That’s a very giggle-kick worthy line!

Hmm… Abbie might tell her story through a script one day. Maxx would keep no evidence. Rose writing things down would mean acknowledging her feelings. Mattie… is a toss-up. Reggie has a blog/podcast, so she definitely has records of everything. #amwriting

We LOVE an accidental touch *pounds floor*.

My gut reaction is Jo and Laurie, but many arguments could be had about whether they’re actually friends or not… 😂

The dialogue/monologue immediately preceding is some of my favorite, most heartbreaking (imo) words I’ve ever written and stemmed from the spark for the story. But for now… enjoy some tenderness 🤸‍♀️🕳️✨ #writinglifemonthly #writerscommunity #writingcommunity #writersofbluesky #mickandrose

Reached that point in getting the zero draft up to a first draft where I have to massage the really hard knots of it all. I know it’ll be worth it but 😭🤸‍♀️🕳️

Not me seeing my clumsy fingers’ typos HOURS later 🤸‍♀️🕳️

Crossing fingers and toes for you! And the agent guide you came up with is absolutely gorgeous. Manifesting that’s your vision board that will bring it to life! ✨

Good gif is good gif 😂

I usually try to cut, and trim, and squeeze my excerpts into the character limits here, but… I just love Mick and Rose’s first kiss so much 🥰💋 Alt text included ur i did it right! #writinglifemonthly #amwriting #romancewriter #wip #writingcommunity #writersofbluesky

Slamming the reblog button on this one 😅 The mental rollercoaster between, “Hey, I AM good!” and “just freaking kidding” is frequent and wild.

Such a good read! And with a bonus cute dog pic at the end to top it all off. #Querying is hard but harder still is writing the letter and getting it just so (I’ve been getting a lot of advice lately - more on that another time!). This was a great breakdown - thanks, @briannahwrites.bsky.social!

Chiming in on a Wednesday, because why not?

But sometimes filter words *are* okay and increase proximity instead of distance. In this essay, I will—

What timing for a major move like that 🥵 Hope it all went well!

Watching the new #thesummeriturnedpretty episode and now feels like the perfect time to say Chris Briney would make a stellar Mick if he ever felt like playing another male lead in a New England romance again 🪻🌊

Mick tipped his head back with a laugh, grin visible from under his chin. It was warm and came from his belly, and he tightened his hand around mine. The center of it was rough against my palm, but the back was soft, and the other was the same when he slipped it over my free one. #writinglifemonthly

I hearted, unhearted because same question, and then promptly rehearted 😂

“Jesus Christ, Rosie,” Mick said, laughing. Rosie. Tender, familiar, free-flowing, like he’d said it every day he’d known me. “What am I meant to do if you won’t let me take care of you?”
“I don’t know,” I whined. When he pulled me in, I went easily, burrowing into his chest. #writinglifemonthly

And after an unexpected bout with jury duty: we back 😂

“Don’t worry,” a deep voice behind me said. “I’ll go grab that.” I peeked over my shoulder right as a tall, suntanned man with light brown hair darted up the aisle before he doubled back with a second box and with gentle authority proclaimed, “Here you are.” #amwriting #writinglifemonthly #romance

A bump on an important update while also saying, I’m currently listening to @victoriaaveyard.bsky.social and Soman Chainani’s latest episode of Plot Twist (I don’t think there are handles for either), and I’m enjoying the meaty discussions. If anyone has writing-centered pod recs… 🤲 Pls and thank 😂

If anyone would like to (re)connect and is still interested in swapping manuscripts, queries, pages, or just commiserating in this yo ho writer’s life we’ve chosen, please do let me know. I’m always very sure people are bothered by me, but if you reach out first I will gladly engage. ❤️ /🧵🪡
