If you're not writing your long book what are you even doing. It's the summer of writing your long book, not the summer of experiencing happiness

In that special part of drafting where I'm dreaming of writing literally anything else.... 🫠 Time to shake things up and write a fun, fluffy scene that will have no place in this finished draft! 🤷🏼♀️

The most beautiful Mother's Day gift from my favorite people 💕 These notebooks from Creator's Friend have come at the perfect time as I begin drafting my WIP (horror romcom?!) in earnest. So thankful to have family that supports me being both Mom AND Writer. 💕

Hopping back into a draft after months away and feeling so proud of a lot of this writing! But also feeling so frustrated that I didn't leave enough notes for Future Danielle to figure out where some of this was going with these [TK]s 😆

With my birthday coming up this weekend, I'm reflecting a lot on the last year. I parented a newborn and a toddler! I read a lot! I wrote & published some short stories! I went on submission with my YA horror! I'm proud of the last year & hopeful for this next chapter 🥳
