We are about 6 months away from my book, RESONANCE & RADIANCE, being released into the world. (April 13th, 2027!) RESONANCE & RADIANCE is a narrative nonfiction book about spectroscopy—the field of science that studies how light interacts with molecules. I want to share this book’s origin story 🧵:

I just finished reading my e-ARC of @kjcharleswriter.com's Think, Write, Edit, Romance and absolutely loved it. Highly recommended for writers at every level! www.kjcharleswriter.com/all-books/th... #romancelandia

This screenshot shows Stephanie Burgis's 5-star review of the book, which reads: This is by far the best book on writing romance I've ever read - and definitely worth reading for writers of any genre who care about building solid characters and plots. This covers everything from the nitty gritty of copy editing to the loftiest overarching structural and thematic questions, so writers at different stages of their own careers will find different sections particularly useful. I've already recommended this to one friend who's won awards in their own (different) genre and has been thinking of trying to write romance next; I'd also recommend it without question to anyone who's just starting out with writing and wants to learn everything from the ground up. Charles manages to articulate so many grounding truths about writing in ways I haven't seen elsewhere, and her own writing is warm, encouraging, and accessible throughout. Highly recommended!

An archaeologist risks everything to stop a disinformation podcaster from using his influence to incite violence. Check out this amazing quote from @victoriadahl.bsky.social! 😍 Available in print, digital, & audiobook October 2nd. preorder: geni.us/FalseFlag #booksky #romancelandia #archaeology

"Rachel Grant has done it again! False Flag, which pulses with emotion and action, is a feminist thriller, a dangerous romance, and a fascinating deep dive into the political and cultural aspects of archeology that few of us have considered. A brave archeologist determined to fight disinformation paired up with a Navy SEAL hoping to prove himself worthy? What more could we ask for? I’m a huge fan of the Evidence: Under Fire series, and this book is yet another great addition.” – Victoria Helen Stone, WSJ bestselling author of Jane Doe
