Authors who have longer running series, is it better to stick to it and write the series all the way before releasing anything else, or do you follow your muse and release other projects between? Sincerely, an author who can’t decide if book five or a standalone sounds more fun for the next WIP

Readers! I have a few ideas for some spin off series that I need to start planning and I am curious what you would be interested in seeing from my Spirit of Hops world / more stories in Rapids Bay!
Option 1: Bookstore / Book Club
Option 2: Mechanics
Option 3: College

When you’re so tired and burned out you can hardly see straight but gotta finish writing this damn chapter before you go to bed to stay on schedule 😭💀

Home alone for the night so of course put on a comfort movie… Center Stage 😍 if you were a dance kid in the early 00s, you know lol

And yes, it’s still a requirement to do the contemporary warmup along with the studio scene every time you watch it 😂😂😂

I’m at the halfway point of my draft 2 rewrite and am officially questioning all my life choices and wondering if I even like the book anymore. Totally normal right? **sobs onto my keyboard 😭😂💀

Sometimes your “grown up day job” is too much of a shit show so you have to peace out early on a Friday and go write at your favorite coffee shop. — coming to you from a very burnt out IT Project Manager currently crying into her coffee and starting at her laptop wondering how words work again 😂🙈😭🤦‍♀️

Watching Mother of the Bride on Netflix (still avoiding edits… don’t give me that look!) and I can confirm the ENTIRE plot is dueling ab and bicep flexing between Benjamin Bratt and Chad Michael Murray. Instant classic 😂🙌😂

When you’re bad at graphics so it takes you like three hours to make a photo set (am I procrastinating on edits? Don’t ask) and you have to resist the urge to post immediately and scream EVERYONE LIKE AND INTERACT WITH THIS HORRIBLY MEDIOCRE SH*T CUZ IT TOOK ME FOREVER! 😂😂😂
February 5, 2025 at 1:38 AM
To open up ARCs for my next release, or to not open up ARCs? That is the question… cuz I’m a scardicat and imposter syndrome is REAL this time around 🙈😂🙈

As a queer spicy author in the states right now it’s so so tempting and easy to want to throw in the towel. Itd be easier, it’d probably be safer but I’m gonna keep on writing queer joy and love as long as I have breath in my body and stories in my heart. That’s my resistance, that’s how I can fight
February 3, 2025 at 9:07 PM
Who's ready for Spirit of Hops Book FOUR?! I'm so excited for you lovelies to get your hands on these two 😍
Title and preorder reveal coming 2/5 💜💜💜

For people who use SmarterQueue to schedule posts… I have a potentially very dumb newbie question… how/what are y’all using to add music to your reels so it stays when you upload and schedule them in the tool?? I feel dumb lol

Trying something new with this book… for my second draft I’m completely rewriting it into a new doc. I have my first draft up on my phone while I type the entire thing back into my neo2. I’m curious to see if the second draft ends up being drastically different or relatively close to draft one.

When you get your finalized cover back from your designer but the cover reveal isn’t for two more weeks…. OMG GUYS ITS SO PRETTY AND IM BAD AT KEEPING SECRETS 😂😂😂
January 28, 2025 at 7:54 PM
Why does starting the second draft of a book feel even more daunting than the first??
