This was a woman who liked sock weight, but wasn't afraid of a blanket chenille, I tell you what!

Is this enough leaves? Not enough leaves? TOO MANY LEAVES???

The author wearing her first attempt at a leaf crown, with an acorn cap (which is relevant to the book she's doing this for). The leaves are green, orange and tan, the acorn cap is brown and the author, a white middle aged woman wearing glasses and a silly look, is goofy.

Yarn pic! i got off the couch! Seriously, someone donated their nana's stash and I'm just giving it a good home.

An absolutely batshit quantity of yarn, filling up a white laundry basket and spilling over onto a coffee table, ranging from sock yarn in multiple colors and some still new in wrapper all the way up to blanket chenille in maroon and red, spread out on a maroon red couch. The end table is a mess, don't look at it. The wall is mustard. Seriously, it's a mess.

I barely got her back into the house. I had to get the waist strap and basically lift her the last step. It was a close thing.

I have to get off the couch to do that. Which, to be clear, I *want* to do. I want to go through it! But... ...couch... I was out with Mom and that's always a lot so I am now just...existing... on a couch.

Our world is crazy and I want to continue fighting evil things, but today I have a book release that I'm really excited about and so I want to also have just one day to be really happy about that.

Light blue background with text that reads "the wait is over" and a picture of Code Blue Christmas cover in the middl (the cover has a couple in winter gear kissing in the Alaskan wilderness, and nearby is a team of derp-y sled dogs)

I think (?) it was La Nora (Nora Roberts, for those of you not well acquainted with Romancelandia) who once said the key to juggling it all was knowing which balls would bounce when dropped and which would shatter. Gold Star for figuring out which would bounce and which would shatter!

I have so many flowers and leaves and different leaves and more flowers and SO MANY LOOSE ENDS THEY ALL NEED TO BE SEWN IN whew, I have to stop crocheting flowers and assemble! Avengers! No, wait, that's the wrong thing?

Sally Sultzman @sallysultzman.bsky.social · 23h

or a crown! Should be, heaven help me, a book-related tree-themed crown!

I am hoping (dearly, dearly hoping) that when all the loose ends are in and it's all assembled... It will be? Maybe??

*deep breath* OKAY I'M GOING IN.

A mess of crochet that is mostly forest green, moss green, autumnal orange, medium brown and light brown, all resting on a mac laptop. Some of the crochet might be recognizable as leaves or acorn caps, or not, it's just all in a pile.

Speaking of, I spoke with someone representing us (the authors) who said they believe the checks are now coming by... Nov. 15th. Le. Sigh.

Mango through the library is also free. Just not...gamified.

the air is drying out over here, it's true. The temps may not consistently say fall but the humidity sure does!

What is he using? I got off Duo when they went all in on AI and I, in theory, use Mango through the library but let's be honest, I do not use it like I should.

I mean, I've been Sarah M. Anderson, Opinionated Editing Person, for years! But Romance Author? Yeah.

Sally Sultzman @sallysultzman.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

They are! And I gotta say, One Rodeo Season remains some of my most heart-wrenching stuff! and the epilogues I added to the stuff that'll come out in Jan? REALLY GOOD STUFF. I just...haven't been Sarah M. Anderson, Romance Author, in so, so, SO long...it feels weird. I'm not handling this well.

Oh! You know what'll be out real real soon? THAT IS RIGHT, ONE RODEO SEASON! (promo is hard for me, but I am trying) sarahmanderson.com/books/one-ro...

A white man in jeans and a white shirt with dark hair walks in front of a white woman with long dark hair in a golden field with a sunset behind them. In the distance a barn and a horse. One Rodeo Season is the title at the top in red, then a tan badge says Revised and Improved Edition. At the bottom is the author's name, Sarah M. Anderson and the series badge, Rodeo Dreamers #2

Surrounding the book cover is text and arrows pointing to the cover. The additional text reads "Takes place over one season of a rodeo (Wild, right?)" "The bulls (not pictured) do not have a lot of secrets" "He wrangles the bulls--and is hiding a secret!" "She raises the bulls--and also has a secret!" "New & improved!" "Award-winning, but not great at graphics!" and "One Rodeo Season, Coming Oct. 20 everywhere you like to order books!!"

The ten-year anniversary edition of Solomon's Seal is now available and the first ordered hardcovers are shipping from the UK! payhip.com/b/4OMpj

Promo image for a pulpy adventure looking hardcover, the anniversary edition of Solomon's Seal. The cover has a woman with guns fighting a dragon and the edges are sprayed like a treasure map. There's an additional smaller cover for Rhydderch's Sword, which is also a pulpy adventure look with a woman swinging a flaming sword. Text says "illustrations! a special look behind the scenes! plus a whole extra prequel novel!"
