Did I splurge on a little early birthday present for myself? Yes 🥰

Is she gorgeous? Stunning! 🤩

Did I panic during the rush when these went on sale and end up with an extra? Also yes 😂 (future giveaway coming!)

Regrets? None 🥰

Harvest moon tonight is GORGEOUS 🌕😍

It's pumpkin season! 🎃🧡

That's so fun!! 😍

Can't help feeling like the lyrics from The Fate of Ophelia would really speak to Michelle in Learning Curves, don't you think? 🧡

Looks like Learning Curves season here in Vermont! 🍁🧡

Yes!! I was so happy to revisit them 🥰

They look good together, don't they? ❤️ If you're wondering, these books are set in the same world, but both can be read as standalones. You did not meet either Marin or Charlotte from Margin of Error in Learning Curves, but you WILL see Audrey and Michelle in Margin of Error! 🥰❤️

Apparently it's National Black Dog Day, and Willow just wanted to make sure you all noticed the black lab puppy on the cover of Margin of Error? Because that puppy is very much inspired by her 🐾💗

Yeah, it felt good to have that hope! Felt like my vote really mattered. Ironically I now live in a red part of a blue state, where before I lived in a blue part of a purple state - feels disorienting!

I can't believe this is my first sapphic book with a pet on the cover - hopefully the first of many! 🥰

Rachel Lacey @rachelslacey.bsky.social · 8d

Love that 🥰 I miss being in the south too - there was something that felt more vital about living in a battleground state (but heartbreaking too - sigh)

You got this!!! (and love your plan with the acorn!) We don't have as many oaks up here - I miss them!

Here we gooooooooo - it's cover reveal time for my second academia book, Margin of Error! 🥰 This one is both cozy and emotional, and I love it so, so much! I can't wait to introduce you to Marin and Charlotte (and Ember the puppy) on February 3rd!

Okay friends, how do we feel about a cover reveal TOMORROW (Wed)?!?! Margin of Error is my 2nd academia book (but no, you didn't meet the main characters in Learning Curves!) Get ready for winter in Vermont, hurt/comfort, coming out later in life, and of course...an adorable puppy! ❄️🐾💙
