NEWS!! New name, new genre and a lot of 🌶️🌶️🌶️ coming in September from @bellanorth.bsky.social. Thrillers still coming too! I’m not leaving the dark side. 😂
The news I’ve been so excited to share hit this week!! My first spicy romance series is being published with @bookouture.bsky.social!!! Can’t wait to tell you more about the Sullivan men *Swoon!
Today I'm preparing to put my WIP away for a month while I work on something else. This kind of juggle happens a lot. If it happens to you, be kind to your future self with a little note reminding you where you're up to and what's next. Don't assume you'll remember! 🤯

The strange thing about this industry is that there are times when it's mad busy and times when you're in a waiting zone and it's quiet. Trying to make the most of it. Christmas shopping is done. Edits back tomorrow.

Oh wow Mia. That's so cool!
I write down the beats of the chapter and few sentences of description or dialogue I've been mulling over. The very first line is important so I play around with it for a while, and then I stick a last line in that connects to the first. Then I write the chapter and rewrite and rewrite it again 😂
That sounds super tricky! Good luck!
Oh that is one cute Raven in a frogs hat. I also absolutely love the creativity of your nephew. 😍
This looks suspiciously like an art gallery 😆
They are super gorgeous. Brag away!! I'm here for it!
And thank you for sharing it!!!

Thought I'd do a thread on writing tips that I might add to from time to time...
1) I've cited this one before on the other place... A description of a person or a place should tell you as much about the person doing the describing as the person or place being described. Examples below.
I'm always so amazed by authors with other creative talents. Crochet, pottery, painting, drawing, baking. You guys blow me away. I can string a sentence together most days but there ends my creative talents. Show me your magic!!!
