I'll go first: No doctor dared to set foot on the island to see him, and he'd been too fragile to be rowed out to see one on the mainland, but the cicadas screamed consumption all that summer.

Haven’t posted here for a while. The manuscript goes for dev edits tomorrow and I’m freaking out about it. The other news is I have some artwork from the story which I adore! Marcin Roczniak is the artist, and you can find him on IG and Reedsy #authorsky

Listen 2025 is WILD and it’s totally ok to channel Ozzy Osborne and eat like 3 massive burritos in one day or drink a soup bowl full of coffee in one gulp. And you can even cry into it a little bit if that helps. No one will judge you. Well someone might but I won’t I promise. Hope this helps 🫶🏼

Some people hate the revision stage. I love it. The first draft is the hardest part for me; everything gets easier after that (except marketing 😅). I love watching my work become better right before my eyes.

My husband thinks I’m nuts (as usual). I’ve had my first rejection and I’m so happy, because I’m actually putting myself out there and chasing something I’m passionate about. I’m sure this elation will wear down by the hundredth one though 😂 #amquerying

On that note:

Trans authors (I mean authors who are trans, NOT cis people who write about trans people), drop your book links here and I'll try to repost as many as I can throughout the day.

Cis people: Repost trans authors' book links.

Cis people who want to complain about being excluded: gtfo
Being a trans author is fucking weird right now. Hell is actively unfolding all around us but I still need to be like, "hey, everyone, wanna buy my silly little queer book? It won't make anything better, but it's kinda fun?"

So....hey, everyone, wanna buy my silly little queer book?

Pretty sickened by UK's Supreme Court 🤮

So I'm opening my submission inbox to unagented trans authors in the UK until the END OF APRIL. I'm not currently open to general subs BUT if you're a trans author writing folk horror, weird, experimental, mystery, literary/upmkt fiction, take a look below 👇

I fell for beautiful sprayed edges on a book. I have resisted this far, but I finally broke! Please ignore the cat begging for attention in the background #booksky

So as one Grimdark idea settles after edits, another has popped up. This is interesting! A whole new world and magic system just landed in my lap overnight, along with new ways to make people suffer. #authorsky
