More #HiveMentor AMA for the #WritingCommunity! Feel free to ask questions in the comments! One thing I would add: SFF over 110k might not be the best fit for me. It’s not a hard no, but anything over Will have cuts suggested. Here’s the link for all the yeas and nays!

Arun "Starling" Tige wants out. No more assassinations for her. But the key to remembering her lost past is with the man who trained her. To get her memories back, the price is one last job. And it could cost her life. Now... she just needs TO KILL A KING.

When the Chosen One lets a giant rift monster kill mech-pilot Aria's adoptive family, she swears to destroy the Chosen's position in the coven. But if Aria succeeds, she could lose her squad or worse... She could become the next Chosen One.

What would you do if you had the power to protect what you love?

So what if Nyx’s humanity slips a when she uses her new AI-god abilities against a power-hungry Galactic Queen. If she doesn’t, she’ll lose everything she ever wanted--her own crew and a real family.

I'm doing a few panels, a roundtable, and a reading at the 2025 WisCon 47 with other amazing science fiction and fantasy authors starting Friday, May 23rd. The breadth of programming for this online con is amazing! AND it's inexpensive. You can even pay what you want! Check it out at www.WisCon.net!

Day 6 #CampBloom. I'm going to try editing my first chapter today. If I can get it tidied up enough, it'll help my writing momentum in the coming days and also help with focus. Today's #WIP activity: what inspired the project? The dumpster fire around me, of course!

Day 5 (catch up). Because I'm super busy on Saturdays generally, I totally didn't get more than a couple pages of my rough first chapter read and edited. I like a good start to, well, start... Anyway. I do have a rough first line for #CampBloom on this #WIP at least!

Day 4 (catch up mode). I wrote for three hours on this day, so I was too focused, then too out of spoons, to post. But I have a very very VERY basic pitch about what my #wip is for #CampBloom.

Day 3 of #CampBloom and I'm still finding things that need prepped before I dive into the blank page. I hadn't yet settled on character names, looks, and some universe details, so doing this intro your characters activity was actually quite helpful.

Today is day 2 of #CampBloom, and I'm still doing prep so I threw together a quick #moodboard for my #WIP that will probably be the worst board I've ever done. (I like playing with design, so I used a basic template and quickly sourced Canva images.)

This is me catching up a little on daily accountability posts. Yesterday (April 1) was a bit messy for me, so I didn't get to my goal of 1 hour a day writing time. I am, however, prepared to write at least 4 chapters in this new project.

Hello follower(s)! I wanted you to know that I'm doing this accountability thing this month with @swords-andsapphics.bsky.social called #CampBloom. If you feel like my daily accountability posts aren't for you, that's okay! I'll be using this post to start a thread for my next #WIP.

I absolutely hate monetizing my skills. I normally just help the #writingcommunity using them. But the spouse lost his job, and money's so tight it's nonexistent. So if you know someone who needs a query critique or book-related graphics, here's my rate sheet. Contact me at the email on the graphic.

Mech-pilot Aria doesn’t want to be the Chosen One. When metal-and-flesh monsters kill her family, she swears to destroy the Chosen One's position within the coven. But if she succeeds, she may lose what she has left and end up Chosen herself.
