So @reginablackwrites.bsky.social’s new one is a masterpiece: August Lane has an absent country legend mother and an ex who stole her song and abandoned her for superstardom. Now both mom and ex are in town for a concert, but only one of them wants to make amends. Top romance of this year so far.

I know this is a radical statement, but nothing makes me more excited to draft a book than finishing a detailed outline.

Emotional reactions I want to have while writing/reading certain romance tropes:
Second chance → Destroy me or it didn’t happen.
Enemies to Lovers → I need to laugh out loud at least twice.
Friends to Lovers → I want to release the breath I didn’t know I was holding.
Forbidden Love → Make me sweat.

I am living for this #CowboyCarter moment. The earth shook when she showed up at the 2022 Grammys in that cowboy hat. The establishment has been told. The CMAs have found out. 🤠

Reading the news this morning was physically painful. Is anyone else walking around feeling like the world is shrinking and someone's stealing all the air?

Was a Black country star, now I'm broke. Got offered dream gig in hometown but I'd have to face my first love (31F) - whose song I stole & claimed as mine. Never gave her credit/royalties. She hates me (deserved) but I still love her. WIBTA for going back?
Ok romance authors, let’s do this. If you have a 2025 release coming out (or it just came out), promo it in the form of an AITA post. And please, if you can, drop a buy link or a GR link. Let’s topple some TBR piles.

Doing some research for *science. If you're a writer, what POV do you typically use? Readers, which one do you read? Feel free to explain why in the comments (no bashing other's favorites though: we all love what we love)

This is the pivot we've all been waiting for. It's funny. It's (extremely) hot. It's action-packed. Preorder it now.
🚨 PRINCESS AND THE PI COVER REVEAL TIME! 🚨Okay, I told artist Amacieforever I wanted a sexy noir detective vibe, but she heard, “Why not make them want to F#@$ the cover?”
I am not mad at it. 👏🏾

I overhauled my newsletter because I read a book about digital minimalism. The funny thing is that I've spent more time with devices, not less, since reading it. But now, when I'm on my phone, iPad, or computer, I do more things that matter to me. I'm writing more! 🎉 It's an incredible feeling.

I enjoy creating fictional towns because settings are my least favorite things to write about. If I can develop them like I do my characters, they're more interesting to me. (And yes, I know actual cities can be characters, but they're not MY characters 😌)

Okay, @authorandiej.bsky.social and I think this place is a little too serious, so let's play some games. We'll start easy with two truths and a lie.
I am a vegetarian.
I don't have any tattoos.
I've never taken nudes.

I've perfected the art of the soft transition into my workday. On the way into the building, I put in Air Pods and continued listening to the song was playing during my commute to wean myself off the comfort of my car and discourage people from talking to me before I had a coffee mug in my hand.
