I feel called out. Love my three item lists. Then again, autistic and feel like everything needs to be in 3s and 5s…

I am so baffled. Every source is claiming that basically the only correct word choice is instinctively, not instinctually. Except, I've never heard or read anyone use instinctively, and it sounds weird as fuck to me. Like I cringe at even thinking the word. #amediting #writer

My mom is immunocompromised so I wouldn’t want to bring something back to her.

I haven’t been on a flight since 2020, largely because I don’t want the sensory nightmare of wearing a mask for so many hours straight.

I think it was early teens. I remember getting cat called on a family vacation to the beach.

I feel like reading a lot helps me with that. I see how many mistakes end up in the final versions of even traditionally published books with full editing teams and it makes my little mistakes not seem so important.

So, I like to roll dice to randomize my short stories ideas. Managed to roll both sirens and mind control. Is that kismet or what? #paranormalromance #writer 📚🌶️

I had a meltdown just trying to figure out if my insurance covered an autism assessment… What’s worse? I emailed them the first time, they told me I needed to call (phone calls are hard for me) but it turned out they could have helped me by email. They just didn’t know what they were doing…

… dangit. This didn’t come from the onion. What is wrong with this reality?

After publishing Shifting Paradigms, a parent of an autistic girl sent me a message. They loved that when their daughter grew up, she would be able to read books about people like her. I was so touched. It is messages like this that make being an author worthwhile. 🌶️📚 #alienromance #booksky

Absolutely. Also, it’s convenient when you don’t want to get into the details or don’t want someone to know your specific identities.

Author Danielle Forrest @danielleforrest.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

Same. I find it more inclusive than lgbtqia2sp+ because haters can’t remove letters they don’t believe belong in the community and letters will never encompass every identity.

Yeah, just read that email. Hard nope. The correct answer to audiobook narration is expensive is do it yourself. Get a clue, d2d. Yeesh. They really need to stop making these terrible decisions lately.

The great plot was professionally written, and the characters were so well developed that as I turned each page the chemistry between the characters kept me totally hooked until the very last page! -Kathleen Bulfon on Amazon f.mtr.cool/uicnja2f9i 🌶️📚 #alienromance #booksky

Best not to read reviews. It’s really not a safe space for authors.

When I published Matched to the Alien Prince, there was fairly polar responses. Some saw it as unrealistic, while others saw it as hope for a future they couldn't yet see for themselves. The latter was what I was aiming for, and I'm glad to see it worked. 🌶️📚 #alienromance #booksky

I could not put it down. This was one of those books where any interruption to reading it annoyed me to no end! I have so enjoyed this series. I’ve bonded with these characters; they feel like friends. -Karen Siddall on Amazon f.mtr.cool/a0wllt09a8 🌶️📚 #booksky

So many of my books feature people who might otherwise not find an HEA in real life. Maybe it's prejudice, maybe it's trauma, maybe it's just fear. Life is hard, and I want to give people hope that their HEA is possible. It's out there... waiting. 🌶️📚 #alienromance #booksky 🌈📚

Conversation washed over her, but she froze at the word “shifter” drifting on the wind. A haughty feminine voice sneered and Mila caught the woman lifting a cup to her lips, so full of her own superiority. “They should all be shot.” 🌶️📚 #booksky

When I wrote Shifting Shadows, I wasn't thinking about the readers. I was thinking about the fact that I had been shipping these two characters together for two books now and I NEEDED. TO. WRITE. THEIR. STORY. 🌶️📚 #alienromance #booksky 🌈📚

Excellent! I thoroughly enjoyed this book and immediately recommended it to my husband. The writing style, character development, story line all were great and had me stay up past my bed time to keep reading. -Karen on Amazon f.mtr.cool/ywtakgh0ro 🌶️📚 #booksky
