My latest book, Bound To Parish, is available on Amazon or at davefillawrites.com 📚
Here: me and my cute girl Harley for y'all

Hey Bluesky, it's been a while, but I thought I'd drop in and share a blog post.
Let's talk about how success actually really scares me.
Refining Ties is available for preorder, and releases March 2nd!

Confidence Is Key: How I deal with writing anxiety
I admit it, I'm not great at distancing myself from the writing. I don't mean every book has myself as a character in it (although they all have pieces of me floating around inside their heads), but w...

I told y'all I'd be ramping back up as the book got closer to release, and here I am with another blog post? This is a short one, but in it you can find some thoughts on growing as an author, Harley (my adorable cat) and the final tease of the cover!

Cover tease #2. Religion is rooted deeply in the south, so we're keeping with the theme. But what could it mean?

Whoa, what's this? A blog post? It's either a trick, or a return to the world of social media in anticipation of the next book. You'll just have to read it to find out.

Life has been hectic recently, but I come to you all bearing good news.
My self-edit for the sequel to Bound to Parish is finally finished!
I don't remember if I've given you all a title yet, but as it stands, Refining Ties should be out sometime this fall!

I'm just saying, maybe it's time to start celebrating the Ides of March as a holiday.

I think this sums up how yesterday was. Trying to get as much as I could and mourn the loss of 170 million friends. I keep thinking about a sentence I heard. "If banning TikTok in the US doesn't radicalize you, it should."
Only the bright side, I have no more excuse not to get this sequel done!

Hey, let’s all read more.
welp, TikTok is officially gone, so I guess it's time to shout into the void here instead. I know for sure I'm not using Twitter. Facebook and Instagram might be necessary evils of the author life, however.
Either way, I'm sad.

Happy New Year from Harley and I!
The sale of Bound To Parish pushed me to 80 reviews on Amazon! Thank you all so much! I'm so happy people love it, and I can't wait to bring some more of Alphonse and the Pointe to y'all later this year!

As we welcome in a new year (happily or not), I just want to thank everyone for giving my words a chance. I look forward to continuing to bring them to you for as long as I can!
Now, all I ask is for some well wishes about my oral surgery coming up on Thursday. 😬

Today's the final day to grab the Kindle version for only .99 cents! In celebration, here's what I consider the BEST review I've gotten for it. A "masterclass in southern gothic storytelling"?? I mean...come on now. 🥰

The most important thing in writing is to finish. A finished thing can be fixed. A finished thing can be published. A finished thing can be made into a movie.
An unfinished thing is just a dream. And dreams fade if you don't hold on tight enough.
So finish the thing.

Just a random question for the authors of #Booksky
Have y'all ever gone back to read your book as a reader? Not as in editing or anything but after it's done and out, just sitting down to read it?
I'm working on a sequel and decided to read the first again to get the vibe back. It's an experience.

I've sold 4 copies of Bound To Parish so far, and I hope those people love it! It's .99 cents until Jan. 1st if you wanna join the club of people that make my heart happy! Otherwise, I'll just be here watching this mafia documentary on Netflix.
