After a long string of rejections, I'm happy to say that one of my short stories was accepted into an anthology 🥹 Starting off 2026 with a bang, I guess! More info to come! #writingcommunity

I made jambalaya and I'm about to make gingerbread tea—the perfect cold weather meal 🫶🏻

For 2026, this is your reminder that doing just a little bit counts. On average, I only write once a week, yet this has allowed me to write 6 books in 6 years. Keep going! #writingcommunity

I'm having a chill NYE with my Ealr Grey hot chocolate and debating what movie to watch ✌🏻

We had a 30°F temperature swing so of course my face hurts today (thanks, barometric pressure), but at least I made #matcha.

I went to a hippo's birthday party today, and the 11-year-old girl I used to be whose favorite animal was a pygmy hippo would've been so happy 🥹 Happy first birthday, Poppy! #happybirthday

My local Barnes & Noble was packed for the sale so I'm happy my community is reading a lot, at least! #booksky

Merry Christmas to anyone who celebrates! 🎄I made gingerbread cookie bars and I'm looking forward to icing them with my cream cheese icing 👌🏻 #christmas

I sat down and wrote 1400 words with my gingerbread matcha and my brain feels a lot happier now. #writingcommunity

Today's tea of the day in my Advent calendar is Pistachio Turkish Delight Pu'erh, and I'm happy to say that it tastes like baklava 😍 #tealover

Almost 10 years ago, I had the pleasure of visiting The Jane Austen Centre in Bath and also Jane Austen's house in Chawton. Happy 250th birthday to the queen! #janeausten

I finally finished my Christmas shopping (except for my family's dogs; gotta get those Christmas pickles!) and I submitted a short story today! #writingcommunity

This week's tea update: I made vanilla bean matcha yesterday and had Assam today! I also ordered some decaf dessert blends and decaf Earl Grey to make Earl Grey hot chocolate, so I'm patiently waiting for those to ship. #tea #tealover

The AI Coke commercial is so depressing. It just looks and feels completely soulless.

The first snow of the season! ❄️ And this is when I realize that I actually grew up in PA because I don't freak out over 1-3 inches of snow 😂 #snowday

My whole account has been drinks lately, but it's 34°F out, so that means hot chocolate!

It's day 1 of my tea Advent calendar! 🎉 #tea #tealover
