My fiance's mom always feeds me like I'm not just working a desk job, but you think I'm going to turn away a giant plate of homemade taquitos? Absolutely not.

I'm off of work today, so I'm doing some querying, and look how pretty my matcha is! #matcha #amquerying

I'm happy to say it was five stars for me! And yes, I love reading a good book while flying!

Pumpkin matcha while writing book reviews? Yes, please! #booksky #matcha

I forgot one of my ARCs comes out on Tuesday. I just binge read it on a flight. Success 😂 #booksky

Every year, I want a tea Advent calendar but just haven't pulled the plug because I have a fairly big collection of tea. This year, I preordered one. Life is too short—enjoy the little things that bring you joy! #friyay

Alexis Collins @lexiscee.bsky.social · 16d

I've been looking forward to reading this one, and I'm the first person to read it from my library! #booksky

It might rain this weekend.

It's my pumpkin patch weekend.

🤞🏻 That it stays away!

Happy National Cinnamon Roll Day! 🎉 I adore a good cinnamon roll, so it's not surprise that Cinny Roll tea is one of my faves. #nationalcinnamonrollday #tealover

The thing about mood reading is, if I get a library book, I'll read it. But if I have to choose from my physical tbr it's like...who knows what I'm in the mood for 😃 #booksky

Happy Tuesday from me and my pumpkin pie matcha latte! #matcha #tuesdaythoughts

This first draft may be a beast, because I just hit 50k words and am finally figuring out some plot points. #writingcommunity #amwriting

I'm taking a break from wedding planning to do some querying and writing, with the help of a London Fog, of course. #writingcommunity #amquerying

A Wingstop opened up 15 minutes from me and this might be dangerous

It was another pumpkin chai kinda day 🍂 #tea #psl

I usually write fairly clean first drafts (a side effect of editing while I write) but my current WIP feels all over the place. I keep reminding myself that I can just edit it up later 😅 #writingcommunity

Happy Tuesday from me and my first homemade pumpkin spice chai latte of the season! #psl #pumpkinspice
