Looking for a summer read? I Was Never Broken is open for preorders now, releasing June 16!

Thank you so so much to everyone who has already grabbed a copy of I Was Never Broken. Before I rerelease it in June, I could definitely use your help. The biggest thing is leaving a Goodreads review. Amazon reviews are likely to disappear forever, but a Goodreads review will stay with me!

Thank you Dani!

I made these graphics while I was still sending queries to agents. After about 30 rejections, all with different reasons, I decided to lean into everything they said. Why hide the fact I’m “old” Why hide the fact that I tackle really tough topics Nope, this book is what it is and I’m damn proud.

Hey Knoxville!

Hey Anchorage!

Help me pick an author photo! Which one do you like best? #writingcommunity #photo #author #fireweed #alaska

Faced my fears and did a photo shoot yesterday for my “author photo.” Can’t wait to see how they turned out, but here’s a sneak peek at my skirt and the letters that inspired my book. #writingcommunity #author

Am I out of my mind trying to write a “cromance”? Would anyone in the world be interested in crime solving meets romance? Anyone? #writingcommunity #writer #genre #romance #crime

Has anyone ever done a Kickstarter or fundraiser for a book tour? Interested to hear your thoughts… #writingcommunity

Just broke through the writers block that was keeping me from starting to write my new book. I feel like celebrating 🥳🥳🥳
