Revealing the title of the second book in my duology tomorrow and I am currently making heart eyes at the first cover sketches for it…things have been rough lately but nothing beats this feeling 💕

Bc the people of threads peer pressured me, bsky gets it too! A two sentence pitch for my upper YA romantasy on submission rn: To uncover the truth of her brother’s k!ller, Merridan will raise the dead. There’s just one problem: she’s summoned the wrong ghost. 🌊 💀

The easiest way to know how my mental health is doing is to ask me how many books I’m reading at one time. Because the answer should always be 1. Always. Right now? I’m in the middle of five books at once. EVEN I DON’T KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS. Consider yourselves warned 😅

Realizing my book on sub was written for the Lae’zel girlies with religious trauma >>>

Made the mistake of opening my calendar today and realizing that today and the day of my deadline are now on the same page

When I went on submission with my debut, I celebrated by commissioning artwork for it. Did the same with the second book I went on sub with. And now I’m commissioning art for my third book that’s out on submission now !!! and I genuinely cannot wait to see these characters come to life 🥹

Going on sub with a new project this week and what do you MEAN this isn’t any less intimidating than the first two times 😭

Traditional Publishing Truth Bomb: * most writers don't get special editions and sprayed edges * most writers are not sent on book tour, and if you see them, they planned & paid themselves * most books won't hit any lists * most books won't sell movie/TV rights * most authors have to hustle

r/resurrection: I tried to summon my unalived brother’s spirit but now I’m stuck with the bratty crown prince of our rival kingdom 😫 what do I do?? #YA #F #R #OS #AG #UnhingedPit

You: How are edits going? Me: Oh you know! Good! Also me: *rocking back and forth in the fetal position*

Why hello there, inevitable I’m-on-deadline ADHD urge to start 8 businesses

The good news: I’ve avoided post book launch blues so far! The bad news: I’ve avoided them bc I’m too busy being depressed about politics instead!

My book is officially out in North America!!! (and hilariously enough, not in my own country 😂)

My spouse just said, “So I have the kind of ADHD that makes me really funny and interesting. You have the kind of ADHD that makes you overstimulated at all times.” And I did not appreciate being perceived and insulted at the same time 😂

I donated a bunch of YA books that I either knew I was never going to get to or had read and was ready to part with. Veronica is doing great work and if you have children’s books for any age, I hope you’ll donate them!!
