Have you seen the character art for Wicked Little Rabbit? Giulia F. Wille is so incredibly talented! I can't wait to see her next piece for Apothecary of Curiosities!

This is everything I have in stock. Only this... These cubbies are usually overflowing! I have an abundance of Apothecary of Curiosities, but many of those are spoken for through pre-order! I'm so grateful, but man, I really need that restock to show up! 😅 #books #bookshelf #signedbooks #bookshelfie

It's Friday. The Grim Reaper is growing impatient. Have you ordered your copy of Apothecary of Curiosities yet? 😉 Don't keep 💀 waiting. #booksky #horrorbooks #cozyhorror

Hey, #BookSky I'm sharing a free ebook today in memory of my grandmother's birthday. She passed away almost 15 years ago. If you would like to help me honor her, you can grab your copy on Amazon. Thank you. 🖤

After my restock order was delayed, I managed to maneuver a workaround and get copies of Wicked Little Rabbit here on time. Phew! #BookSky

Dealings in the Dark now has 100 reviews on Goodreads! It's currently at 83 on Amazon. Maybe we will get to 100 there soon? IDK. How should we celebrate? 🥰 #bookreview #bookreviews #BookSky

Today, I rebelled and found happiness. I spent the day with my family and bought myself a lava lamp. That doesn't mean much to anyone else. It's everything to me right now.

Everyone you know is American born. No, you don't know where they are. No, you don't know how to find them. No, you don't know where they work. No, you don't know where their kids go to school. No, they cannot enter your house to search. #resist

Silence is compliance. If you can't speak out for fear for yourself or others, boost the voices that can. Boost the voices that are most affected anyway! Write to your representatives. Shut down the bigoted arguments. No tolerance for that behavior.

Hey, everyone! We're officially at 30 pre-orders! 20 more until the second goal! <3 #booksky

If what you've already seen of Trump's presidency makes you feel comfortable or happy, see yourself off of my page. I don't need people like that in my life. Peace out.

What's in the PR Box? Every box comes w/ the exclusive foil cover, matching bookmark, sticker, character art, & a 3D printed Reaper cat. We add more to the box every time we hit one of these goals! We've already surpassed 25, so we're adding the recipe card. We're working up to the tea! #booksky

Hey, #BookSky! Has anyone else ready this one? I'm part of a horror book club at Words on Pages in Paw Paw, MI. We're meeting for the second time tomorrow. 🙂 I may have read a little ahead of the goal. Haha

1. Your author career won't take off overnight, but that doesn't make it invalid. 2. It's easier to gain readers if you write in one genre, but your stories will only be good if you follow your heart. #author #writingcommunity

I don't care what genre you write, how many followers you have, or what your bestseller rank is on Amazon. Fellow authors are not my competition. We are a community. Thank you for sharing your stories. 🖤 #authorcommunity

There's a lot of discussion about how the "big authors" are "too cool" to care about smaller authors. I don't think that's true, but also, do you know what I'm too big for? Nothing. I'm not even cool. 😂 Carry on. #author

The short story collection I love is releasing in less than three months. I'm super excited about it, but aside from a handful of others, I'm probably the only one. LOL That's author life for you. 🤷‍♀️ Cozy horror is a great genre that doesn't get enough credit. Just saying.

Long day in the car today, but my family and I are on quite a journey. 🙂 We're driving from MI to FL today and tomorrow while also making memorable pit stops. It's been fun, but man is this author tired! More tomorrow. Stopping at a hotel in Georgia. 🖤 #roadtrip #authoronvacation

With all this discussion about #triggerwarnings, let me make myself clear. Trigger warnings are important. Informed consent is important. #Reader health is more important than my sales. 💯 These are the warnings included in all of my current published novels/novellas. I will not be taking them out.

Looks like it's going to be a rest kind of day. The problem is I don't know how to rest. I have a two-day signing this weekend to prep for, errands to run, proofreading to do, and two short stories to write. So, here I am stressing out on my couch, glued to the heating pad for my hyperextended (1)

You know what isn't fun? Slipping and falling down your porch stairs. One hyperextended shoulder, a sprained wrist, and lots of bruises later, I'm still on a deadline for my next release. 😅
