Imma need some of you to think about thriving out of spite. I had big plans for 2025 and I’m definitely not gonna pre-derail them for likes of Elin and Tromp. I’m getting more involved. Loving harder. Writing hornier. Having more fun. I’m gonna be so kind to my neighbors, bitch.

✨ANNOUNCEMENT✨ After a decade of writing and more than a dozen manuscripts, I can now say: I am going to be a published author! My debut follows an Ethiopian-American college dropout infiltrating Harvard to scam a wealthy friend group. So, so excited to share this with y'all!*

And we’re back. Here’s what I’ve been working on: NINTH HOUSE x FRANKENSTEIN When 22-yr-old necromancer, Aven Ivy, botches her sister’s resurrection, she joins a secret society at her med school to gain the power to fix her. Little did she know her fate would be tied to a beautiful enemy. 💀

I feel like most authors don't rly want Stephen King levels of stardom, where we can't grab a meal w/o people crying at the table. Most of us just want to support our families, afford health care, have 30 people show up to a book signing, and write books that mean something to those who need them.
