After consuming most of my life for the past year and a bit, this friend is finally out in the world! Kinda strange to not be constantly writing/editing it.

Available wide as an ebook and through the zon for physical copies!

My dog is the sweetest and I will accept 0 criticisms. 💖

She has also definitely known 0 hardships, but that doesn’t stop her from being a drama queen or snoozing like she’s worked a day in her life.

Happy Monday!

Between the chapters there are diary entries from Arycelle! These were a blast to write and I hope everyone has fun reading them (and shoutout to @rdawnraven.bsky.social for helping me make the year system not super confusing 💖)

Releases Nov 1! Sign up for an eARC!

Happy Monday!

WIP Wednesday! EditOutLoud is down so I had to switch to Speechify and I’m sad (eARCs should be ready by the weekend though!)

In other news, my short story got accepted by Indie Bites and will be in their November issue! I’m very excited for everyone to meet the loveable disaster that is Sophie 🥰

The cat has gone home, yet the haikus continue…

My friend sent me this picture and I couldn’t NOT write one. His expression was too perfect! (Clearly, he had other ideas about her attempts to read)

Happy Monday!

Want a fantasy that’s half slow-burn romance, half train-wreck of a demon pact you can’t look away from? A Damsel and a Demon releases November 1st! Sign up for an eARC if you’re interested!

WIP Wednesday!

Since Amazon can’t follow their own printing guidelines, I’m trying to live my dreams of white text on a black background through a creepy demon mirror. I haven’t test printed it yet but hopefully it works better!

Something a little different today!

My friend’s cat went home last week but not before I made some tuna wraps. Perhaps unsurprisingly, he was absolutely FERAL for tuna. He even knocked over the recycling bin to get at the rinsed out tin!

WIP…Thursday?? We’ll just be a day off this week. Yeah…

This is from a short story I’m working on. The main characters have a “would you love me if I was a ____” and after one tells the other she’s late, her retort is, “I would love you if you were a snail.” 🐌

A day late because yesterday was a holiday and I definitely didn’t forget what day it was…

These were written as part of a D&D campaign where my character (the squid) was trying to advise my sister’s character against taking an interest in the suspicious pirate captain.

What a lovely twist at the end! I went back and reread it right after with the new context. So sweet. 💖

WIP Wednesday! Almost done with my Indie Bites submission! Whether or not this one gets accepted, I really like how it came out, and will probably write more short stories with the main character! Then got my cozy fantasy short story down below the max wordcount!

Last week my work computer had to do a Windows 11 update and the estimated time was one hour so…haikus?

I quite like this one, actually.

Happy Melodrama Monday!
