Incredible feedback from a couple of my beta readers. Maybe Quinn Campbell and BUT NOW I’M FOUND has life after all! Now I just need an agent to read it and feel the same way!

More coming soon!

I just officially submitted my first two queries for my psychological thriller, BUT NOW I’M FOUND! Woohoo!

I'm convincing you to like the characters from my upcoming mainstream romance novel TANGLED LINES ( #Enemies2Lovers, #TorturedSlowBurn, #ForcedProximity ) based on these exchanges.

I love Theo and Ivy, and I hope you like them, too! I can't wait to see where this story takes us!

I just finished Chapter 3 of the mainstream #romance #novel I'm writing!

Theo and Ivy are still sniping at each other every chance they get. Ivy's bubbly, larger-than-life personality drives grumpy, judgmental Theo crazy, but there's something about her he just can't put his finger on.

In my #romance #novel, my #MMC and #FMC are traveling together to Milan for a 2-wk stay. I was there a few years ago, but only spent 1 day there. If you’ve been to #Milan, what are some places that a pair of travel writers should go to for a review piece on Milan?

I wish I could make a living as a professional author. Maybe I can lay the groundwork now so I can do it once I retire. There’s something so magical about developing a strong main character, putting them in unusual situations, & letting them work their way through it. Telling stories is so much fun.

I’m a little upset at this.

I use ZeroGPT to check if audiobook audition scripts are AI-generated, so I thought I’d check a few lines of the romance novel I’m writing in the detector, and this is what I got. WTF!

Every word written out of my own imagination, and the detector thinks otherwise. UGH!

Ivy stares at the photo caption, weighing whether or not she should hit submit. She sighs, rolls her neck slightly, and deletes the caption. Maybe she should try her best to make this work.

“Move it along, lovebirds,” someone says behind Theo, and he spins to look at the man, disgust on his face.

How do you know when a new idea is itching to get out of your brain and onto paper?

When you write almost 10K words in two days, and you end the day literally smiling at what you wrote.

This romance idea is really amazing, and I'm really really enjoying it so far!

I’ve fallen completely in love with my new #romance novel idea. Theo Irving and Ivy Sinclair are incredible characters.

Also, one benefit of working on a new story is allowing me to clear my head, making the edits on my crime thriller novel so much easier.

I just sat down at my computer and wrote 3,000 words in Chapter 1 of the mainstream romance novel I'm working on, and it felt good. 🙂

I love putting two characters into a situation, and let their dialogue and personal discoveries determine where the chapter goes.

There are few things better than the #writing research process...and I absolutely LOVE the beginning parts of #storycraft. And this new #romance is gonna be 🔥🔥🔥! Two rival travel writers are about to learn that the greatest adventure isn't the one they are on—but it's the one they never saw coming.

I'm on edit #4, and this story has been the love of my life. I cannot wait to share it and my FMC - reporter Quinn Campbell - with all of you!

An idea for a #romance novel came to me in a dream the other night, and I know writing it would push me as a novelist, since it's not really my preferred #genre. But what do you think of the idea? I would love to hear your thoughts...would you read this book?

Go for your dreams. Don’t let ANYONE tell you you’re not deserving of success! I lived too long with soul-crushing self-doubt, and it took the love of my life to finally break the cycle.

You can accomplish anything you set your mind to.

I want to write the next great American novel.

I have this innate desire to create deeply layered characters and put them in stories which are impactful to others and force readers to feel some kind of way.

I crave creating emotional reactions.
I crave crafting incredible stories.

It’s who I am.

Bsky followers:

I want to create a new #Substack to talk about my #writing and #audiobooknarration journey.

What are some things you would like to read about? Interviews? Real world experiences? Photo stories?

Help a writer out!
