The only thing bringing me a semblance of comfort is watching Kpop Demon Hunters and dreaming of my own girl-band-in-space-fighting-ugly-corps WIP graphic novel being a thing maybe one day. keep telling stories y'all. it's still a form of resistance to give hope through art.
New author photo, so it's time for a re-introduction! 🌈📚

"How it's done, done, done."
utterly obsessed with KPop Demon Hunters! And it's making me yearn for my girl band in space graphic novel. Maybe I need to dust it off as I rewatch KPDH for the hundredth time.
My friend, Jo Schulte, and I are planning a mini book tour and while I've been spoiled by the support locally I am now completely terrified not a single soul will show up. So that said, if you're in any of these places plz come hang out! We're doing some fun stuff with other writer friends.
Today, I got the greenlight to dive into my adult romcom and I started a substack where I hope I get to talk about bookselling, and events and awesome authors/books and writing... so if you want to keep some tabs on me... open.substack.com/pub/yatllive...
YESSS! And just saw your book on edelweiss and snatched it SO HARD!!! can't wait to dive in!
Just a reminder that submissions for this are OPEN!! We'd love to see your work in our inboxes!
AHOY, BABE🛟✨ A little commotion for for the cover + synopsis of my next book THE DEAD OF SUMMER, please!!
I’ll also be in Asheville, DC area, Raleigh, NY & possibly Philly
Ok so I’m doing some traveling in the next few months and figured it’d be fun to offer portrait sessions for authors and publishing folks.
Right now I’m headed to Austin, TX end of the month.
Hit me up if interested.
A plea from someone who follows many artists here, in part to locate illustrators for special projects: If you're capable of finding beauty in larger bodies, please make that evident in your portfolio? Otherwise, how can I know whether you're willing/able to illustrate non-straight-size people?
As a graphic novel writer I love perusing through #portfolioday posts and dreaming of working with every one of these talented artists. Def making my list for future projects. 👀
Hey, so it's National Library Week. You're going to see a lot of calls to get a library card and check out books. All well and good. But I'm going to ask you to do something a little more supportive: speak up.
Y'all this book goes so unbelievably hard. If you like like dark academia, this is a must-read. It takes the intersection of academia and capitalism by the throat at knifepoint and just sort of goes off in the most bananas way possible. You do not want to miss this one!
I've been wanting to read WHY ON EARTH, a YA sci-fi anthology edited by @rosieethor.bsky.social & @yatllive.bsky.social ever since I heard about it. If you enjoy inclusive sci-fi that's not very techy, I highly recommend it! My Reading Buddy's looking for a flying saucer he can sneak onto👽😉 #booksky
Illinois Consolidated Elections are coming up on April 1, with many early voting sites opening up tomorrow.
These elections help determine who sits on public library and public school boards, among other local offices.
I've developed two guides to help navigate these elections.
If you’re stressed about what’s happening with libraries and the cuts, do follow my dear pal @heykellyjensen.bsky.social.
She is a constant source of information and action.
It’s so deeply dismaying that a huge portion of Americans are too stupid to realize that trans people are the shiny thing Republicans use to distract you so you don’t notice they’re picking your pocket.
I'm extremely happy to say that my copy of Why on Earth: An Alien Invasion Anthology by @rosieethor.bsky.social and @yatllive.bsky.social arrived in the mail today and I look forward to reading it in the near future.
having a crisis deciding what to work on next. shiny new idea syndrome is strong today. or it could be that I just really want to hide into writing.
