For my fellow #adhd #neurodivergent creatives out there, don’t be so hard on yourself 🥴 It really helps to track hrs. My brain: WE’RE FAILING! Reality: In 2.5 weeks + travel, events, & PMS, I spent 30 hrs writing 26k words on my first draft…breathe & listen to this song again 😮‍💨 #cozyfantasy #calm

Halfway through 1st draft! Here’s a teaser of the cover I’ve been working on for book 5, The Secret of the Swirlalu 😉 Though I might make the serpent look less angry 🤔 “Following the spiral of magic & mystery might just bring you home.” #cozyfantasy #procreate #cozytalesoflarune

💙📚🌈📚🪐📚♿📚❤️🫖 I think I've gotten to the last 5% of editing on Chai and Charmcraft. The good part of editing is it makes it shine; the bad part is I'm staring at the hard parts! But this #cozyfantasy meets #romancelandia should be out in May. Now for format & blurb! lynnstrong.com/books/charmc...

Chai and Charmcraft: A Magical Middle Eastern Cozy Fantasy by Lynn Strong. A smiling round middle-aged man with curling silver-stroked hair in golden silk robes holds a glass of chai and a saucer, with a golden-eyed gray cat looking at him from the window through which we see a cityscape at the edge of sunrise.

Yay! First 5 stars! Thank you, person, whoever you are 😄🙏🩵 Hope the 1st written review is a happy reader too. I really want to get all the tales on audiobook this year (soon as it’s financially viable). #cozyfantasy #heartwarming #inclusion #blindcharacters #booksky #fantasybooks

LILY IN THE MIST is on Amazon! 🎉🎉 Paperback is still in review, but digital is live 🤗 For being my most peaceful story it was ironically stressful to write 😂 I wanted to represent #lowvision with as much accuracy & kindness as I could, & keep the chill plot (hopefully) interesting 🤞 #cozyfantasy

Got inspired to start drawing the cover for book 5, Secret of the Swirlalu! A more adventurous tale about two brothers & the mysterious source of Larune’s magic. If Indiana Jones was an elf and Uncharted was #cozyfantasy, lol 😜 Excited for this one!

Wow! Who knew my 2nd book would be the most popular! I didn’t 😄 I’m chuffed, but it’s starting to look suspicious, lol. (Not that I “want” lower stars). I’m just kinda amazed 😳 Enjoy it while it lasts, I suppose. Eventually someone will hate it 😆 #cozyfantasy #dragonbooks #cutedragons

Done with the first draft of Lily in the Mist! Now it’s just an edit/rewrite, then a sensitivity reading. So I’m hoping a late summer release? And here’s a sneak peak of a little detail on the upcoming cover of Gilly the goblin monk carving a statue 😉 #cozyfantasy #cozytalesofLarune #fantasybooks

Oh. It’s only been 2.5 months since I started the first draft of my 4th #cozyfantasy, Lily in the Mist. I kept feeling like it’d been twice as long.
