Forever keeping a notebook on my nightstand for those 3 am ideas 🌙📓 Bonus points if you spot the classic romance. #booksky #amwriting
A nightstand with a lamp, a notebook, a jar of colored pencils, and a copy of North and South by Elizabeth Gaskell.

My phone's POV 20 minutes into "writing," because I accidentally opened Instagram instead of my notes app and now we're doom scrolling 📱😅 #booksky #writerproblems

Unfortunately, preferring to write with fine-tip markers does have its pitfalls 🖊️💙 Pen or pencil person? #booksky #amwriting

Writing is truly a time machine for me. I started at 6, blinked, and now it's almost 10 ⏳✍️ #booksky #amwriting

It's Nate's time to shine ✨ Logical, confident, a genuine nice guy. And I forgot to write it down, but he's funny. I promise he's not some cold logic robot 😂 #booksky #amwriting

Asking the important questions over here. Is a female author an authress? Yes, if you're old. No, if you live in today's day and age 😂 #booksky #amwriting

I greatly prefer notebooks, but I'm beyond terrible at leaving enough room. ALWAYS cramming the rest of the thought in tiny letters on the side ✍️😅 #booksky #amwriting

It's really hard to work from a desk when your office doubles as a guest room and the bed is riiiiight there 🛏️ Nap or write? Asking for me. #booksky #writerproblems

A little sneak peek into the making of Lila's character 📓 Wedding planner to the core, emergency box always packed, stretchy pants with pockets. Which detail do you relate to most? #booksky

Pro tip: put your desk above a heat vent to keep your toes warm as the weather turns chilly 🧦 Minnesota writers, you're welcome. #booksky #writerlife

As a wedding planner, Lila makes every piece of the wedding puzzle fit. But when I started her story as enemies to lovers, my pieces wouldn't fit. Nate is too nice. Lila is too into him. So I'm reintroducing my book as an instant chemistry, opposites attract rom-com 🧩💍 #booksky

My office clock is super loud. It's basically taunting me as it ticks away while I try to power through writer's block ⏰ What's your writer's block (or reader's slump) cure? 👇 #booksky #amwriting. Alt text: A round floral clock with painted birds and blossoms on a pink wall.

Why does Lila relate to "Sleeping With the Lights On" by Daniel Seavey so hard? You'll have to read to find out 🎧💔 #booksky #bookplaylist
