In true #unhingedpit fashion, I'm like 3 days late. Have you ever wondered what would happen if Dr. Kevorkian was a super-cute 20-something-year-old woman who had to choose between her professional and personal loyalties?

Nope? I'm the only one spending hours and hours puzzling out that question?

I can’t help but laugh/cry when I see marketing plans from publishers still touting how they will “post on X accounts” — like can you do me a favor and NOT?

I know it is hard to pivot but you NEED TO PIVOT. Please I am BEGGING you to leave that god-forsaken platform and move here P L E A S E

This is so fun! I'm Steph. I am currently working on a romance novel. Outside of work, writing, and reading, my time is pretty much 100% toddler-chasing (think spider-man trivia, Lego building, and a lot of snack fetching)

Hey! First, thank you so much for volunteering your time :) I noted you don't like books with heavy references to cancer; would another terminal illness be okay for you as a sub plot?
