What if I said the fate of Christmas and the world rested with this guy? Imagine a Christmas Eve alien invasion of the North Pole, Santa kidnapped, and the only person left to uncover the conspiracy and save them is a blerd elf named Elfin! #MG #AD #OWN #BIPOC #UnhingedPit

If you know this you’re halfway to understanding my #MG novel. Obscure comps from over 5 yrs ago? Try a reimagined 40 yo movie about tweens and classic film monsters. They aren’t fighting them, they’re becoming them. A new Monster Squad to save the day. #UnhingedPit #BIPOC #OWN

What does this crazy combination have in common? It’s the inspiration for ALIENS HAVE KIDNAPPED CHRISTMAS. When aliens invade the N Pole on Xmas Eve and kidnap Santa it’s up to blerd elf Elfin to save Christmas before midnight and figure out who betrayed Santa #questpit #q #mg

Last year I submitted my novel for a mentorship program. While I already knew I didn’t get selected last night one of mentors reached out to tell me I was one of her top choices and that I had a great story. That was a real confidence booster! #amwriting

9 yo Elvin is crying inside. Sometimes as an adult you have to feed that inner child. This was a buffet for mine. All time favorite Disney character. Ducktales changed my childhood. #JollywoodNights

Dapper Day at Disney and Black Santa! Best Santa hug I’ve ever had. I feel like my wish will come true!

I try to take my son to a different museum every time we come home to visit. This trip was Air and Space. He wasn’t as impressed as I thought he might be but half of it was under renovations. Maybe next time.
