The wait is over!

A Fine Line, my debut contemporary rivals-to-lovers romance novel, is out today!!

Think Leslie Knope’s city council run in Parks and Recreation and the banter and teasing of Josh and Donna’s relationship in The West Wing!

Head here for your copy!

Clear your schedule because you're going to resent any
responsibilities that get in the way of reading this book! I loved every minute, and I was torn between needing to know what happens in the end and wanting to really absorb the beauty and humour of the writing.
A FINE
* LINE *
PENELOPE GUINN

This is rivals-to-lovers done right-sharp banter, unresolved tension, and that delicious "we should not be doing this" energy simmering under every interaction. The chemistry between
Calliope and Emerson is immediate but layered, built on shared wounds and hard-earned vulnerability.
Love or hase? Too close to call

Thanks to last week's infamous Reylo one-word prompt of "virgin," I have a little something cooking. Not sure when it'll be ready, but it's in progress.

Hope y'all are ready for morally gray sorority girl Rey and a little dub-con.

SLIDE 1

“Recruit Niima…” Baz’s voice grows colder. They hadn’t exactly hit it off during the rush week mixers. It’s a miracle Rey had made it past rush with Baz gunning for her every step of the way. Some grudges are elemental. Ancestral, even. “Guess it hurts your feelings that your slut friend didn’t tell you about losing her v-card, huh?”
She punctuates the question with a sad little pout that makes Rey’s spine turn to steel.
“Rose is an adult,” Rey says steadily, and she feels the nudge of Rose’s foot against hers. Reminding her, they’re a team. “She can do whatever she likes.”
“And do you do whatever you like?” Baz tilts her head, raptor-like. Rey gets the distinct impression that Baz can see straight through her. Fuck her. Rey locks eyes with Baz, only to earn a taut smile. “Are you a slut like Rose?”
“I don’t think Rose is a slut.”
Baz steps closer into Rey’s space, crowding over her. One more inch, and that perfect white tennis will be grinding into Rey’s lap. “That’s not what I asked you, Recruit. Let’s try this again. How many guys have you fucked?”
Rey’s throat turns dry. “Ah—”
“You’re going to have to speak up, Niima. How many?”

SLIDE 2

“I—” Rey clears her throat. It doesn’t matter what she says, because Baz will be a cunt about it. So it might as well be the goddamn truth. “None. I haven’t had sex.”
Bazine Netal’s dark eyes light up like she’s been given the best Christmas present of all time. It’s a dark joy, and it’s almost imperceptible, the way her lips twitch as if she can already taste blood.
“Aw. You’re a virgin, Recruit?” She grins around the gathering of Phi O recruits, who are alternately wide-eyed and silently praying for mercy, or eyeing Rey with a speculative sharpness that makes her heart twist. The last thing Baz needs is ammo.
“Yes, ma’am.” Rey’s teeth grind together, and she maintains eye contact with Bazine in silent challenge.
“Well, that’s just precious, Niima. I mean, I’m not exactly surprised, having met you, but honestly, it’s super adorable.” Bazine rocks back on her heels, taking her time in deciding Rey’s fate. Or pretending to. “Guess your new name this week is Virgin.”
Baz’s manicured hand clasps Rey’s chin, pinching until it hurts, and she brings her face nearly nose-to-nose with Rey. Rey stares into the whites of her eyes as the other girl slowly draws a V on her forehead with the crimson lipstick.
“Any questions, Virgin?”

SLIDE 3

“No. Thank you.” Rey refuses to flinch. Refuses to betray any embarrassment. She can deal with this for the week. It’s fine. She and Rose can be Virgin and Slut. It won’t come close to any of the adolescent humiliations they’ve faced together in the past.
Baz pauses before stepping away, likely sensing that Rey’s not as decimated as she should be. An unacceptable situation. The older girl’s eyes narrow until only a dark meanness shines from her lovely face.
“One more thing.” Bazine caps the lipstick, and her voice pitches high enough for the entire room to hear. Perhaps the next two rooms, as well. The other girl’s smirk is one of the most punchable Rey has ever witnessed in her lifetime. “You have one week to take care of this situation, Virgin. Or you’re done at Phi O. Do you understand?”
Rey blinks. “Excuse me?”
Laughter rings to the ornate light fixture.
“You heard me. Get that cherry popped, Virgin. You have a week to provide evidence.”

I've repeatedly written to my MP asking why his govt is prioritising a loss-making small sector over a massive profitable one that gives us immense soft power, but he doesn't seem to have an answer.

James McConnachie @jamesmcconnachie.bsky.social · 18d

'the UK creative industries — which contributed £125 billion to the economy in 2024 and supported 2.4 million jobs — are being destroyed by an AI sector that... contributed just £11 billion in the same year and supported only 85,000 jobs." www.thetimes.com/culture/film...

All 2.4m of Britain’s creative workers are at risk — and we know why

A new report into the impact of AI on the creative sector makes for apocalyptic reading. The government must act now

A screenshot from a threads post from user named preciioussssssssss that has a photo of Taylor Zakhar Perez standing in front of teal lockers in black Lacoste boxer briefs and a plain white tshirt, grinning at the camera. Next to the photo is a quote on a black background that says:

On his upcoming projects "I can't be too specific with it, but I am work with a producer to adapt an Ali Hazelwood novel right now. I can't say anymore. I've been working on it for the last six months and I'm really excited about it, of what it could be."

Ops caption says Taylor Zakhar Perez in an Ali Hazelwood adaptation is exactly what the world needs, actually.
