Steamy romance writer.
Enthusiastic punk/emo music consumer.
Chocolate is my love language.
Gluten is the enemy.
I have read fifteen books this year. Mostly why choose, but also a couple fantasy books.

I usually don’t track, but I needed a distraction. Either rage or HEA, and tbh, I’ve chosen both.

The last few days have been awful. I hope you take care of yourself better than I have taken care of myself

I’ve read two romance adjacent series this week.

One about revisionist history and how it impacts our youth and the world.

One about finding family and resilience when the world is afraid of what you can do. About outsmarting the oppressor.

Romance is often more than just spice and fantasy.

I am not computer illiterate, but I am THE WORST website “designer”.

I have no patience for it, so naturally I’ve spent all day working on a website update because I’m getting serious about publishing for 2025.

My sister flew out to Oregon to be with us for Christmas.

We’ve spent today coast hopping. Spent the night in a Yurt, and hve taken a million pictures.

I still fucking love this state.

MLS Cup is free on Apple TV for any soccer lovers out there.

My team didn’t make playoffs this year, so I’m just hoping for a good match.

Spotify put together a “moody” playlist for me, which is perfect for rotting in bed while reading this lovely Sunday.

I love my jobs.

I never thought I’d say that, but here we are. I’m spending the weekend reading backlist titles for a client I get to work with next week.

Just changed residency from one state to another today (finally).

The first thing I did?

Signed up for a library card. This one has access to Libby too and I am so excited! The small town we lived in before did not use Libby. 💃

We live by corporate demands.

Stories on online recipes = search engine optimization. The ability for those recipes to be found in the first place because they rank on search engines.

Just like boycotting zon & Walmart. Are these companies too big to disrupt? Probably. And that’s disappointing.

Let's help save a queer nonprofit bookstore stay afloat in Provo, Utah.

They've been subject to three bomb threats since opening a little over a year ago.

Buy some books or audiobooks, go in person if local, and *spread the word*

The fact that writers can use various combinations of 26 letters to make me care about people who never existed and then destroy me emotionally by making them suffer is the weirdest, most unfair, and wonderful of magics

My creativity is so fickle.

Like, oh shit, I disappointed myself by dropping the ball on something totally unrelated to my book. Now everything sucks and I can’t *possibly* escape into a fictional world where mistakes create conflict that gets to be resolved later.

Oh, the drama.

Hi. I was never on Twitter, but I decided it was time to join up here.

I'm a budding romance author, currently working on the second book in a new series that will release at some point next year. Not sure how active I'll be here, but excited to be here anyway :)
