It's honestly one of my all-time favorites. Between the music, the topic, and the sheer skill of the actors playing so many roles at once... I love everything about it.

Saw Come From Away at the local theatre tonight. Second time seeing it on stage and yep, it still makes me cry multiple times. SUCH a good show.

The feeling of holding a physical copy of your book for the first time never gets old. ARCs are here, and I'm filled with joy! Thank you for this stunning cover art @laurenrayesnow.bsky.social, for believing in our story @notapipe.bsky.social, and for being the best coauthor @jeshonard.bsky.social.

Is "all of them" a valid response?

Wish I was still in the East Bay! What a group.

Ok time to see what all this K-Pop Demon Hunter hype is about

And so much less of a sensory overload.

My people 🥺

I also exist in a state of stage left.

Article. Sometimes I feel like the only human left who immediately nopes out of video content.

Yesssssss

❤️❤️❤️❤️

I love seeing how these covers continue to evolve for new audiences.

Actual footage of me managing a major virtual conference, getting ready for a writing workshop, and prepping for my own book's cover reveal/pre-order launch all in the same week.

If all else fails: Dramatic reading of the dictionary.

Whoo finished my critique commentary, packed my bags, and printed my boarding tags. Writing Excuses 2025 is SO CLOSE I can taste the all you can eat desserts.

It's so rude.

Okay, but why didn't I know this was an option 😅

The weird part about the world burning down is that I still have to, like, do the dishes and stuff.

What do two debut authors do when their first book sells well enough to warrant a sequel?

Panic! Then learn. Then write.

Then panic again, because deadlines.

But it's all good. We got this. I'm totally calm and not anxious AT ALL.

Best writing buddy, even if she's grumpy about it.

I got two bandaids but I would like to petition for stickers instead
