Somehow autocorrect changed "curse" to "horse" and no. Just no.

Today in the first draft of book 2, frisky time with the earth elemental has spawned running inappropriate agriculture jokes. 😳

Nearing the bottom of the First Draft candle for book 2. Pay no attention to the fact that I haven’t started writing act 3 yet. @bryndonovan.bsky.social if you saw this no you didn’t 😂

Okay, now I'm remembering why I deleted my Goodreads account. You still need to find a librarian to make any changes to your backlist? 😐

Here's why you need to keep talking about your books: When i get to the library or the bookstore or the Hoopla app, I swear I've never heard of a book before in my life and I have never--not once!--interacted with an author, couldn't pick you all's names out of a lineup.

Been having dental work all week while keeping up with grad school, coordinating materials for a preorder campaign for this book launch, and writing a serial while also high as fuck. I haven't slept a lot. If you admire my multitasking and/or feel sorry for me, pre-order. books2read.com/u/b659wx

I needed to look something up in book one, and I realized that I can check in the paperback copy that's sitting right here. My baby's all grown up and being a real book. *author sniffles*

Author friends, is there no way to set a book to perma-free on Amazon anymore? I vaguely remember a form where you could put the other vendor links in to do it and I can't find it.

This week I had an ER visit for my eye, a late night opthamologist appointment, and an eye surgery. Everything is fine now! 😍 This was all out of network (because emergency) so if you were thinking of getting my Master Lists book, now is a great time 🥰 #writersky www.amazon.com/MASTER-LISTS...

Look! I wrote a thing! It lives! Reaching Rotbottom is the first in my NEW Hammer, Stone, and Thorn trilogy. It's a slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers romantasy featuring found families, fighting fantasy fascism, and a loyal but dimwitted magehound. Preorder it here: www.amazon.com/dp/B0H6Y91QDZ
