Got my copy of my friend's debut indie novel, "Shadow of Lilith." Stevie put so much work into this book, and the final product is BEAUTIFUL. steviehoslerwrites.myshopify.com

I've passed 65K words in my second novel, which I'll call OMKI... or TMKI. I'm still working on the title 😉 This is a big milestone for me, because #GraceAndJo was right around 65K when I queried it. I've written more than 141K words this year. #amwriting #publishing

New office set-up! Traded a small L-shaped desk for a big ass executive one. Now I can stare at my inspiration board while I write and have space to set out notes!

Spent a long weekend at the #CrookedOakLodge in Deep Creek! 😍
Yes, this WOULD be the perfect deck view for a writing retreat, but on this particular trip, we had 12 adults and 18 kids with us. 🤪
Tomorrow… back to work!
