The most important thing in writing is to finish. A finished thing can be fixed. A finished thing can be published. A finished thing can be made into a movie.
An unfinished thing is just a dream. And dreams fade if you don't hold on tight enough.
So finish the thing.

No big deal, just the author of my favorite book of the year dropping this at the close of her e-mail today. (Actually, an extremely big deal, and I will be printing this out and posting it in my office.) 🥹 #WritersofBluesky #RomComWriters

JANE THE VIRGIN meets WHILE YOU WERE SLEEPING in this #RomCom about a #Tejana book editor who snags the perfect date for her sister’s wedding to placate her overbearing mother, only to clash with his blunt best friend, who forces her to confront who she really is—and what she really wants. #DVPit

All Lina Morales wants is to survive her sister’s wedding with her pride intact and a perfect plus-one. But when Mr. Perfect’s infuriating best friend sees through her act, she must choose between keeping up appearances or risking her heart for something messy, magnetic, and real. #DVPit #A #RomCom

Lina Morales needs a date to survive her sister’s wedding and her meddling mom. Enter Mr. Perfect: hot, safe, and mom-approved. But when his irritating best friend shows up, her carefully curated persona starts to crumble…along with her plan to keep her heart safe. #DVPit #A #RomCom

#DVParty: My next #RomCom? Two nerdy Dallas scholarship kids. 20 years of “just friends.” After a year apart, she needs him to be her fake boyfriend at a work retreat to boost her career at a firm of “good ol’ boys.” But pretending to be in love is harder—or easier?—than either of them expected.

#DVParty Day 5: I have a playlist for my 93K #RomCom, SOMEDAY SOMEONE—songs for every emotional up and down, every moment of torturous yearning. But at the end of the day, this is a South Texas love story, so two songs feel especially fitting. ¡Para los que les gusta la cumbia y el two step! 🪗

Lina Morales is a 33-year-old book editor, expert liar, and undercover romantic (not that she'd admit it). She’ll do anything to snag the perfect wedding date to evade her mom’s disapproval—anything but open old wounds…or her heart. #DVParty

WHILE YOU WERE SLEEPING x JANE THE VIRGIN
A San Antonio-set rom-com featuring a sharp, messy #Tejana heroine caught in a chaotic love triangle…and a web of snowballing lies. Think rich female friendships, a complicated mother-daughter bond, and all the heart and humor of ‘90s rom-coms. #DVParty

As a South Texan from the border, this is too funny not to share. The only thing that would’ve made this better is if it had been a tlacuache instead of a raccoon.

The deer feeder corn attracts a lot of other species, but maybe we should worry about them all teaming up against us?

Once in a very long while, I’ll start a book, and within the first twenty pages, think, ”Yeah, this is DEFINITELY going to be one of my favorites.” I’m feeling that right now—giddy and electric. #TheTruthAccordingtoEmber @danicanava.bsky.social

Curtis Sittenfeld’s Romantic Comedy has me in SUCH a book hangover. I’ve started three on my Kindle and none have quite captured me. Time to look at my physical TBR on my bookshelves. #RomanticComedy #RomCom #Booksky 💖🎭

Just finished a reread of #YouBetweentheLines, and it was just as beautiful and smart the second time around. Relatable and honest, and made me teary AGAIN. One of my favorites. #Booksky #weekendreads #romance

When it comes to plants, I am cursed with death and destruction (I’ve literally killed a SUCCULENT). So, it is the joy of my entire MONTH to see this little rose in my office THRIVING. Look at her blooming! 🥹💐
