Aussie STEM professional and aspiring SFF writer. Lovely to meet you all 😊
Me and Bucky the Cat have the same opinion when it comes to cliffhangers 😹

Next book on my reading list is Here One Moment by #LianeMoriarty. I've loved her other ones, so expecting big things here!

My next read is a bookclub read! So far, so good - I love a bit of magical realism. Now I just need to figure out how to find one of these special books myself...
Are you in a #bookclub too?

Struggling for motivation to write this week. I'm halfway through another edit, but there's still so much to go. Open to all advice 🙏

No idea why, but I like to write third person past tense for novels, but first person present tense for short stories 🤷‍♀️ #JustWriterThings
What do you like to write more first-person or third-person? Are there any crazy second-person people? #WritersOfBluesky #writingcommunity #amwriting #writing

How does travel impact your writing? 💭
For me, it's all about the landscapes. So many of my fantasy and sci-fi worlds are built from real places (with a twist) because I find it much easier to immerse myself in the details.

Torres del Paine was an incredible place to visit. So much so that it became a major inspiration for one of the planets in my New Adult Science Fantasy WIP.

When life gets busy and stress gets heavy, I choose to ride with dragons 🐉 I've got about 8 hours left on this one (so no spoilers pls!) but it's been a fabulous ride so far. Despite its length, it's easy to devour and I can't wait to talk about it with my bookfriends 😄

Always leave space on your shelves for the important stuff 😂

Almost done and honestly this will be one of the easiest 5 star ratings I've given in awhile. Somehow equally hilarious and triggering, with an incredible cast of characters. I'm obsessed 😍

And one more to make the nostalgia complete. A leopard seal from my 2019 trip to Antarctica 🤗🦭

Gentoo penguins from my 2019 trip to Antarctica. Wish I could be there and out of cell range most days 😬🐧

A new day, a new app 🤗
I missed old school Insta where pretty pictures made me feel good.
So to start a new chapter, here's throwback to 2019 when I travelled to Antarctic ⛵️
