I married the least jealous person ever and I love that for me. With that being said, if my book boyfriends aren’t busting through doors and crowds with white hot jealousy, I’m afraid we’re just not meant to be.

I’m so glad my 20s were absolutely crazy. I really did everything there was to do. I was out every night. I traveled the world. I danced on stages. I had crazy, intense love affairs. I partied my ass off. I tried everything thrice. Now I’m like, is 6pm too late to take vitamins? Lemme google…

Transgender fantasy book rec of the day. Wendy Darling has resigned to living his life as a woman. When he returns to Neverland as Peter however, he finds the games they played as kids have become deadly, and Captain Hook is kinda… hot? I love this sweet novella! #booksky #queerbooksky

Front cover of Peter Darling by Austin Chant. Black etchings of a window above a churning sea with a tentacled sea monster chasing a pirate ship on a light cream background.

From Refuse To Be Done, some new things I’ve learned, some reaffirmations of what I already know. This one is huge for me, I think a lot of folk’s adversity to editing is this struggle. Pulling bits and pieces onto a fresh page is infinitely more effective. #WritingCommunity #amEditing ✍️

Start fresh. Don't tie yourself to boring events, actions, or sentences. It's usually easier to make a new scene from scratch than to make a bad scene good.

Some of y’all romance authors need to work on tension and chemistry. If Dr. Chuck Tingle can do it time and time again in 40 pages or less, and you can’t in 300+ then it’s time to workshop a little longer.

Authors and readers: I’m considering rewriting my debut books (a duet) bc my writing has improved so much. Nothing in the plot would change. However, they’ve already been made into audiobooks and reproducing them is not gonna happen. What would you do? Forget about it or rewrite it?

One of my favorite lines from my debut novel🤭 Writing a book starring a fat, black woman with 4c hair (that she wears in an afro 80% of the time) was so so important to me and knowing that I found an agent that loves this story as much as I do, makes me so happy🥰🤭 #amvague
