Fantastic news! KJ Charles has the best writing advice. Here is hoping there is a chapter about writing sex scenes.
Welp. After talking about maybe doing it for approximately seven years, I have pulled together a decade of my writing advice stuff to become a book.

Draft is with my agent now, we'll see how it goes. But I will self pub if it doesn't land elsewhere, so this is happening one way or another!

The Minecraft Movie is the heartwarming comic relief we all need right now. Go see it, cheer when the chicken jockey shows up, and listen for this line: it is easier to destroy than create.
Then go out there and create something.

That writing moment when you go back and reread a scene and your side characters are clearly up to something but you can't remember what it was they were planning...

A little moodboard to soft launch my sapphic, low fantasy romance about a magical renaissance faire and the witch who has to team up with a human to save it from going into foreclosure

Coming soon to #editors 🧚‍♀️

It's been a hellish week, here in America, with many more to come. When you need a break, or a hug, or both, pick up Something Spectacular by Alexis Hall. I want to turn this book into a blanket and wear it around.

Hello Bluesky!
Joining the crew over here. I write slightly bonkers, joyful, adventurous, queer historical romance.
Mood board here for STRANGE BEDFELLOWS which is for everyone who needed Bridgerton to have more queer love stories.
