Hi! I’m a writer (scifi, fantasy, detective thrillers) and an editor. I love TMNT, mac & cheese, and fuzzy socks!

Have you pre-ordered yet? It comes out in 6 weeks!!

I can hardly believe it myself. 😁

You know that #dream where you have to move because the #AI robot who runs your building is forcing everyone to play soccer?

Yeah…you know the one… 🤣🤣

First round of edits on The Makers is DONE!! Apparently, “I want more of this world” was the phrase of the hour 🤣🤣

I always forget. Every time. How LONG editing takes. 🤣🤣

Had a blast at the (very warm) Kenosha Book Fest yesterday. I only *mostly* melted, but it was lovely to meet other #authors #readers. And James Whitemore there in his HOLLOW T-shirt!

Special shout out to Reggie for all your “stronk” help, engaging company, and of course, ice cold water! 🤣🤣

Come see me in person on Sunday!

I’ll be at the Kenosha Book Festival on July 27 from 10-3. I’ll have all my #books, and you can even get them signed. 😁 Or just come to chat!

There will be a #foodtruck there and surprise goodies for the first 100 people!

My #books are in another bookstore!

Anyone in the Kenosha, WI area, check out Studio Moonfall! Besides my stuff, they represent indie and #localauthors, so you should definitely check it out and show your book-love support!

This is me with the fantastic owner (and author/artist), Donovan Scherer.

My friend: “Wow! It’s been a long time! Anything new?”

Me: (2 hours later filling in all the changes in my life.)

Her: 🤯

Me: “Yeah. My life runs hot.” 🤣🤣

Ah. Yeah it’s just a wonky angle lol. But I like your version of where it came from better 😁

I wrote one sentence: “Got stunning sunflower today. 🌻”

How…HOW…did I forget the “a?” 🙄🤷🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

Because it looks mutated??

Got stunning #sunflower today. 🌻

Just had a dream where I brought an alarm clock to my mom and said, “It won’t shut off, like when I have a dream, but it’s really broken haha!”

Only to realize after I threw it across the room to break it that it was STILL GOING. I turned to my mom and said, “Aw crap, this IS the alarm dream!” 🤣🤣

“Estimated wait time: less than 15min.”

1 hour 55 minutes later…still on hold.

This is my life now. 🤣🤣

I had a picture sent to me from JR who went to The Dead Deads concert. He said his face makeup from the concert reminded him of the eye makeup on my IDENTITY book cover! 🤣🤣

Realizing as a Pantser I may have to go back and “fix” things once the book is written, which can be a LOT of work, but I love the surprise ending more than filling in the “in betweens” if I’ve plotted out the #book.

Have you other #writers out there figured out what works best for you?
