"We've got to stop meeting like this."
In a small town you're bound to run into your neighbors... but Brinn can't stop ending up in Isaac's arms (and he doesn't mind).

Stuck in your story? Put those blorbos in a new location! A new city, a different room, a different planet, a coffee shop, a street corner, a field. Doesn't matter! Just put them somewhere else and then write about how they got there, what they're doing, why they're there!

Apparently today is National Grief Awareness day! I wrote a whole book about what it's like to be drowned by grief, the people who will find you and love you despite it, and what it's like eventually learn to live alongside it.

Romance authors with more complex/heavier themes, where is your marketing finding the best success with readers?
Tiktok gets me reads but the things that do well on TT I don't think capture the heavier themes, so I tend go get lower ratings. Threads and IG get me less reads but higher ratings.

does anyone else's productivity go way down in the summer? It's not even because I'm out doing anything fun either :( It's too hot and the wildfire smoke makes me sick. How are we coping #writersky?

My partner and I like to do a DIY BookIt! when we read the same book. We get personal pizzas and watch a similar vibes movie or adaption. We read @tkingfisher.com 's Clocktaur Wars duology recently so we're watching the D&D: Honor Among Thieves movie and Hellboy 2: The Golden Army 😍

US Based indie authors!! International forever stamps aren't that much more expensive than regular stamps. You can easily send international readers stickers and bookmarks! I put mine in a card so they don't get ruined, but really it's the cost of a stamp and an envelope.
