I’ve been quiet, but it’s for a good reason 💛 Elena came 3 weeks early, spent a day in the NICU where I wasn’t allowed because I had norovirus, BUT our family has been reunited again and soaking in all the baby snuggles! (Now prepare to rarely if ever see my children’s faces on here again lol)

On bed rest until the baby is here and leaving work yesterday made me so sad. What do you mean I won’t get to be in this beautiful place again for months?

remember, the blitzkrieg is intended to make you feel like there is nothing you can do about it; that’s the only reason to go forward in this haphazard and sloppy manner all in the first week and the choice of that strategy tells you they are afraid you *will* do something about it

New year, new WIP? 👀 I’m struggling to write and just need to pick something self indulgent to get myself back into it. Soooo a twist on hades and Persephone in an underground city on the brink of collapse thanks to a growing cult? It’s fantasy, it’s horror, it’s romance. It’s so me lol

This might ruffle feathers, but I think it’s time we as a community took a step back from pitch events. The initial purpose was to have agent participation and to create a space to uplift marginalized voices, and that has been lost.

With 2024 coming to a close, and me being unlikely to finish reading another book before it does, I read a grand total of 8 books this year 😅 it was below my goal BUT every single book I read was an absolute banger. Probably my best reading year to date.

Also, can we normalize NOT talking about pregnant people’s bodies?? Don’t tell me how “good” I look and that I don’t even look pregnant when my shirt is so short that I’m Winnie the Poohing.

Week 21 of pregnancy, which is over the official halfway mark. And even MORE over thanks to the plan to get this baby out even sooner. And how am I feeling about it? I’ll let the photo speak for itself.

I think the issue I’m having with writing right now is that the book I WANT to write has no active romance subplot. It’s a book of grief and healing, but my brain needs an escape right now and that means a silly romance subplot to keep me going.

When I first got pregnant this time, post POTS diagnosis, I was told symptoms either get better or worse (reassuring). Since I am halfway through, can confirm POTS symptoms are much much worse when you’re growing a human. 🥴
