Writing my new romance from the male’s pov, and he can get quite emotional. Some might call it unrealistic, but imma call it representation 🤭

I don’t doubt there are men like him who are super in tune with his feelings and can’t wait to write more!!

It may feel weird or somehow improper to talk about your art or your writing, but we need it. It can’t be wall-to-wall nightmare all the time. Art is both counterweight and context. It’s escape and enlightenment and a mirror of our own exasperation. We need it. We NEED it. Keep showing us.

So so happy to have caught #Cupit in real time! I've missed seeing and interacting with writers during pitch events <33 Comment below if you've posted so I can give my support!!

IF ONLY 💛

Two former high school classmates reunite years after graduation, where unresolved emotions resurface, forcing them to confront the past they thought they’d forgotten

♡ High school nostalgia
♡ Linear timelines
♡ She fell first, he falls hardest
♡ Male yearning

when she asks if he noticed her new haircut

but he’s memorised her morning hot chocolate order, has noticed the way she chews her cheek when she’s nervous, has memorised the way her nose crinkles when she’s laughs and remembers how she blushed over him in high school

#BookSky what are some of your favourite middle grade fiction books?
December 16, 2024 at 12:20 PM
Making it my goal to read more middle grade fiction in 2025! There's something so healing and whimsical about reading middle-grade books as an adult. The contricts of imagination are so thin and anything is possible

I don't care! I'll always be the biggest sucker for domestic scenes in romance!!! GIVE me puzzle dates, romantic strolls, movie marathons, baking dates, playing video games together, just low-drama, soft, romantic scenes!! gives me butterflies every single time

I recently logged into my old Tumblr and opened a writing blog, and honestly the writing community there that shares tips, prompts and advice is so so helpful! Genuinely still one of my favourite places to get writing tips
