Arrived home for Xmas & 1st things 1st: Checked out #TheNewRomantics in Orlando.

Absolutely adorable romance-only bookstore. Every subgenre from YA to Romantasy.

If you're in town, don't miss it!

Yes! This is what copyeditors do: decrease the mental effort of reading a book. It’s not dumbing down; it’s removing unnecessary impediments so that the story or the argument shines through.

😂😂😂

Oops! I misunderstood 😬

Never forget this: The GOP’s nonsensical culture war is meant to distract you from corporate corruption, worker oppression, and staggering wealth inequality.

Same

🤔 am I the only one who finds all this slightly suspicious? I mean, yeah, the animal kingdom would be up on arms. But are they being "helped" at the zoo?

Hey #BlackSky I'm an American writer living in Paris.
Currently on book 3 with Penguin Random House. #FAMU #FSU
Need to meet all y'all.

I'm here!

I would love to be added!

Can’t believe this needs to be said but… downloading ebooks illegally is theft. It’s an author’s livelihood & a lot of authors don’t make much to begin with. There are libraries & authors willing to give free copies if you really can’t afford it. Don’t steal from artists😫.

I just have to put this out there.

All over social media, I keep seeing, "oh, but he can't do X, Y,Z, it's unconstitutional".

Or, "stop stoking fear, that won't happen, it's against the law".

Oh, my sweet summer children. Bless y'alls hearts...

Hello Blue Sky: I post about politics a lot, but it is instrumental to understanding my tweets that I write romance novels.

I write romance novels because I understand that hope is not a passive thing: it is an active practice that must be cultivated over time.

Just because, here's my dog.

Everyone, meet Sumo!

One of his strengths is pretending not to understand French or English. And becoming unhinged if anyone dares to use the stairs in our building.

He must also "assist" me when I'm writing. (Falling asleep on my lap & farting)

We are not going to STOP TRYING to protect people because they don't want us to.

We are not going to STOP TRYING to make things better because they want them worse.

It is 2024 and I have *zero time* for people who are not willing to try.

Whoops! Been here a while but forgot to post 😆.

As a little girl, I dreamed of two things: being a writer & being French.
It took some doing, but now I've lived in France 18+ years & my 3rd book, GIVE ME A SHOT is out May 2025.

Looking forward to making new friends here!

So honored you replied!

Hey, Ms. Bev!
