I’ll post about books again… eventually. Hehehe! But today the creating begins! First up, fancy shoes! The outfit will pay homage to my first book series in a few subtle ways, and I can’t wait to show you how! I also can’t wait for @crown.and.quill.book.event

Should I be writing? Yes. Should I be plotting pages instead of outfits? Also yes. Ah, well. I am super excited to take you on a little crafting journey for the @Crown and Quill Golden Dusk ball! #bookball #bookevent #crownandquill #crafty

I thought about these recommendations for way too long, but each of us deserves a unique romance read and these are some of my favorites! Here’s what I think the characters of the Pitt should be reading in their nonexistent down time.

Reacting to THOSE romance book words. Heheheheheh! None of them make me stop reading a book, but they do give me the cringe-giggles 😆🤣😆

This has been hanging over me for couple of weeks. I suffer from ADHD paralysis so badly sometimes. It’s like, I know what I need to do, and I know it will help me feel better, but I am so overwhelmed by the thought of getting started. Today I found the ability to begin.

No strategy. Just glitter and goodness! 😆❤️😆❤️ My readers: blinking slowly… but still love me. My characters: begging me to stop. They are dignified after all! Me: clicking “post” anyway. #romantasy #spicybooks #whychoose #readmorebooks

What makes it a dark romance in your opinion? This author needs to know! #darkromance #author #darkromancereads

Even a few pages can slow your mind, lower stress, spark creativity, and remind you that you’re more than your responsibilities… well maybe not my books, but some do! How about 2 men who would move mountains for you? ❤️ The Obligates of Aerta is a ⭐️complete⭐️ fated mates to throuple epic romantasy

This is the last of my film and pics from Sinful and that makes me so sad! The memories will be there until the next one, though. ❤️🩷💜 Now, how about you take a chance on an Indie author whose books are as… let’s go with FANCY… as the outfits she wears 😂😂😂 #romantasy #spicybooks #completeseries

There’s something special about book events 📚🩷❤️💜 Being in a room full of people who love stories, ideas, and creativity is tops! It’s always a great reminder of how powerful books can be. 💛📖 I love @Sinful Signings EC #bookevents #authorlife #reader

Before every book event, I tell myself to prep my talking points. INSTEAD I panic-buy clothing like my confidence can be found somewhere in a new skirt. “Maybe this is THE LOOK.” Add to cart. Checkout. Spiral. Repeat! #fashionpolice #bookevents #authorlife

Writing a book is like baking something new. 🍰 You misread the recipe. You forget an egg. You stare at it like… well. That happened. But here’s the thing. Not every “mistake” ruins the dessert. Sometimes it just makes it yours. #authorcommunity #authorlife

I know that I am a Why-Choose author. And I KNOW that I’m still waiting on my MFM happily ever after. But I know what I heard… it was threesome. Right? Tell me I’m wrong?!?! (No don’t 😂) #romanceauthor #whychoose #mfm #mmf

ROMANTASY… because you can save the kingdom AND fall in love. You can battle the monsters AND confront your own heart. You can push back against your destiny AND find devastating chemistry with your fated mate (and this other guy) all in one book. #romantasy #lgbtqiabooks #whychoose

We think we look like ethereal forest fae reading fantasy. In reality, we’re hunched, unblinking goblins in oversized hoodies, growling at anyone who interrupts. And honestly? That’s the real aesthetic (Don’t judge my cucumber eating ways. I am who I am 😂)#booksta #bookgoblin #reader

Recently, I was asked if I sprayed my own edges because I couldn’t afford a printer to do it. Nope, I do it because I like the process and I can keep the book affordable for my readers. I love that they love them. 🩷

You like romantasy but are over the same plot line? How about an MF ➝ MFM ➝ MMF? A heroine who knows her worth. Two (not a typo) men who love with their whole souls… and this other guy. Welcome to The Obligates of Aerta. 🖤 #romantasy #mmf #completeseries #spicybooks

I write my FMCs strong! And they’re not fighters. Strength isn’t always a blade in hand or a body on a battlefield. It’s self-respect. It’s intelligence. It’s the refusal to shrink. And that kind of strength changes worlds. #badassfmc #strongfmc #romancereads

Disturbing words… heartfelt intentions. If a man is going to say something unhinged, it should come after patience, trust, and devotion have been established The men of Aerta understand this balance… sorta. 😂🩷😂🩷 #romancereads #romantasy #aicouldnever #valentines #valentinesday

Sarah McLachlan prepared you in the early 2000s. Now it’s me who emotionally devastates people professionally. (I’m an author 😬😬😬) 📕📕📕 For just trying out this series, you too can experience the millennial level emotional devastation. Don’t fight it. Lean in. 😂😂😂 Sorry y’all!… #booksky
