Fall is by far my favorite season. On the surface, it seems to be an ending to something, but I see it more as a place where possibility begins.

What a beautiful weekend it has been! Spent yesterday enjoying a favorite summer activity: listening to the carillon bells at Princeton’s Cleveland Tower. 🌈

Getting a little inspiration from the Jane Austen exhibit at The Morgan in NYC.

Back from the 2025 Historical Novel Society North American conference with lots of motivation and new ideas! Always great to see old friends and to make new connections—a sweet reminder of the importance of community as a creative person.

One thing I have discovered: Love is wherever you look for it.

Happy Valentine’s Day to my fellow early birds and artists!

It's been hard to read about the #LAfires having visited for the first time in November and having had such a wonderful experience. One of the last photos I took before we left was of this peaceful corner near the bar area at Moonshadows in Malibu. Sad to learn that today it is no longer there.

A light snow on campus today for our return to the office.

Among the thoughtful Christmas gifts I received this year for my early morning writing sessions, a hooded blanket and loose leaf green tea. #5amwritersclub #writingcommunity #writerslife

Wishing you all the peace and joy of the holiday season! (And a little extra time for your art, wherever you can find it!) #5amwritersclub #writingcommunity #writerslife

I have countless files related to my WIP, but this travel journal is where I’ve kept track of my progress toward my goals — a reminder to myself that I’m always moving forward and that it’s the journey we take as writers and artists that matters most. #5amwritersclub #writerslife

Happy Wednesday! Recently returned from a trip to L.A. Being on the West Coast, I never thought I'd have such an incredible view of the sunrise.

‘Night Bluesky. I’ll leave you with a favorite pastime of mine on campus: capturing images of bikes in the wild.
