I made a title card for my new book. I guess it's a way to make it feel real. Even though I've written eight books now, it's still weirdly hard to believe that I could ever finish another one. It seems impossible. A penny dropped in the wishing well.

Fantastic piece from @washingtonpost.com on the art of #editing and the necessity to embrace feedback as a writer. A great reminder that all the best #writing is an obsessive quest through the labyrinth of rewriting. #writingcommunity www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

I've thought a lot about the film 'The Death of Stalin' lately. In 2017 it felt like a hilarious yet chilling warning sign of history repeating, but now that history has done just so, it has morphed into a live webcam capturing Trump's cabinet of thin-skinned, spineless stooges with eerie precision.

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism. We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

As my kids step up to the doorstep of two, I've come to realize that Phantom Thread is really just a flick about toddlers working it out, played by Oscar-winning actors. The only thing missing is Ms. Rachel's "Big Feelings" song.

Worlds collide when a dark queen's journey to break her curse forces her to take a human prisoner back to her realm. His brother will do anything to find out what happened, including infiltrating an exclusive nightclub where men seem to disappear. #P2Ppit #a #f #q #amquerying 📖

A graphic with wrath of a Wildflower in the center. Bubbles of text around it say: Morally grey, urban fantasy, cursed dark queen, two realms, dual pov, romance, missing brother, new adult

The pitch. Decades ago, the princes of Lucis realm cursed her before they left to take over earth. Liming the days she can cross realms to hunt them and forcing her to take a mortal soul each visit has made killing the princes difficult, but not impossible. Now she is finally closing in on the prince with the key to breaking her curse, but she doesn't know that one of the mortal monsters she took on her journey to vengeance has a very loyal brother. Ryland finally has the job he needs at greeds, the exclusive nightclub where his brother was last seen two years ago. As he gets closer to discovering what happened to his brother and a trail of other missing men, he meets a beautiful partner to help him with the hunt. Together they find that their government is lying to them and monsters are real. And they are hunting one.

A southern inheritance is always dark—whether it's a penchant for pills, a blood-soaked family farm, or an ancient magic. Sierra spurns them all, but when her dad disappears, she must choose which monsters to slay, and which to become. #P2Ppit #Q #YA #H #T #LGBT

A moodboard collage of green and grey images with an earthy, spooky vibe. There's a white woman with moths on her face, a deer skull emerging from the bushes, a black fist strangled with vines, white pills in a pile, images from trailer parks, a copperhead, and a sign saying "No More Overdose Deaths"

All writers get rejections: They're part of the process of putting your work out there. Just got two this week, and both sting a little, but they're also badges, little reminders that you're doing the work, taking the risks. And they'll keep coming, until you barely notice them.
