Good morning?

Just so we’re clear type 1 fun is reading my books and supporting your local indie authors.

I’m pretty sure almost every character is named in Houndstooth even if they only appear once. I know this is a writing faux pas, but it was a stylistic choice.

I think it’s hilarious to have opposing hobbies, interests, and skillsets. I go to the gym and write poetry. I listen to heavy metal and asmr. I loved the chaos of working in kitchens but nothing beats a sleepy evening in with a cup of tea.

People who use/read a lot of AI stuff are going to start writing like AI. A wave of people who write with the cadence of the machines.

I fear the third story in my sci-fi anthology trilogy is actually doomed to be the best of the three.

Wahhh. It is snowing. That means it’s time for hot chocolate and a wintry romance novel. I think anyway.

Happy Halloween. Sorry I don’t have a horror novel or horror poetry collection for you yet. Maybe next year.

After all, why not treat yourself to a new book about passion and a new poetry collection about limerence? Why not spoil yourself?

Where do the days go?! Less than two weeks to go until HOUNDSTOOTH and PRETTY BOY are both released. How exciting?! Link in bio or whatever for pre-orders. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Only 3.5 weeks left to go! Pre-order both of these now 😏 Or wait. Idk. Your call.

It’s so easy to just not pay attention to social media for days at a time and I forgot I’m supposed to “market” myself and my books and my poetry collections and all that jazz.

I’m so tired of indie author discourse. I’m writing my stupid stories. Like them. Hate them. Like me. Hate me. Idc. Keep it to yourself. I just like telling little stories. Argue with a wall.

coda | author & poet @codacola.bsky.social · 13/08/2025
Time for a reminder 🫶🏻 New novel and a new poetry collection both out October 1st and available for pre-order now. The paperbacks, however, are real nice so I would understand if y’all wait to snag a physical on release day.

The beauty of poetry is that anything can be poetry. There aren’t really rules unless you’re writing structured stuff.

A reminder. Two new projects. One poetry project about being in love with a vampire. One new novel about not being in love with anything and getting drawn into the world of cuisine while navigating your 20s. Both coming October 1, 2025. Pre-order is available ✌🏻 onemorecircle.carrd.co

I’m not happy that I have to do so many rewrites on so many projects. I am happy that I get to live in these stories a little longer than I thought at first. I’m not happy at how long it’s taking. I am happy that every day is a day closer to a finished book.

I think I might be growing a real fondness for writing long books. Something about a huge page count really gets me going.

Next month makes it a decade since I first published a novel in paperback. Holy shit, how times have changed, but what has remained the same is my inability to create and stick to a marketing plan 😐

🥱 Just another reminder of some new stuff coming your way. Pre-order 🔗 in bio ✌🏻

Everything I write is actually pretty bad (debatable), but I think that’s what makes it so endearing.

What I will say is that my new novel is for you if you're a fan of The Bear or Sweetbitter. It's a bit of a pet project, and it comes in at 170k words.

Hello friends & foes, New collection called Fruits & Flowers is coming out on July 13. My fourth collection 🧛‍♀️🥀 is coming out on October 1. And my next novel 🐶🦷 (first under my new pen name!?) is also coming out on October 1.

Bots and scammers ruin the internet and make life so unpleasant. Why is it that I make a gig active on fiverr, post the link nowhere, and get a bunch of bot scams in my inbox? Anywayyyy, if you need proofreading, beta reading, or copy editing, let me know :)
