I passed 25,000 words and 100 pages in Champagne Problems! A little slower than I'd like, but we're getting there!

And maybe if I talk about my projects, it'll help me hold myself accountable.

So, my work in progress is tentatively titled Champagne Problems. It's the story of Emma and Violet, who have to navigate class issues and past trauma in order to find each other.

Hoping to finish the draft in October!

I'm not great at social media for a few reasons, but one of them is I'm kind of a slow writer! I find it difficult to talk about my process because it involves a lot of false starts.

That said, I'm aiming to get better at it, so here I am!

Happy Pride month, all! Way back in 2018 I made these galaxy pride flags. They were shared many thousands of times, featured on Vice, and even made their way onto book covers and into video games.

Here are the original ones I created (in no particular order!) so Bluesky can have them too. 💙

Non-binary flag made from photos of galaxies

Have you seen the covers of my two upcoming shape-shifter romances, "Enemies by Nature" and "Shifting Nature"?

They are fake relationship, enemies-to-lovers sapphic romance novels and will be out in May!

Cover reveal - Both books are out in May 2025.

The cover of Enemies by Nature, by Jae, shows a fox on the left, with a brunette woman on the right whose back is shown. She is facing the fox. The background is a green forest.

The cover of Shifting Nature by Jae is a sitting fox on the left, and a sitting woman on the right. The brunette woman is reaching out to the fox, petting it. The background is a forest in autumn.

I recently read SHIFTING GEARS by Jazz Forrester and really enjoyed it! I highly recommend, especially if you're experiencing winter right now and need some summer vibes ☺️

An e-reader with a book cover displayed. The book is Shifting Gears by Jazz Forrester. It features a blonde woman in a blue baseball cap leaning toward a brunette woman in a flannel shirt who's sitting on the hood of a red truck. There's a tree in the background.
