Someone’s squeaky octopus symphony during my writing session was very distracting. Good thing she’s adorable.

"It is a truth universally acknowledged that having fun isn't hard when you've got a library card".

If you don’t have a local library card, it should be your New Year’s resolution to get one. It’s an easy resolution to keep and you’ll actually use it, trust me.

The Sunday Scaries: Writer Edition.
Tomorrow I start working toward a new writing goal. To get a first draft done for the 2nd book in my Shakespearean Sports Romance series ✨. Not daunting at all.

I made this for my husband this year as a joke gift and he actually loved it (I couldn’t wait for Christmas Day to give it to him 🙃.)

Current argument with the husband: Is the movie 10 Things I Hate About You on a late 90s/early 2000s must watch list?
Me: YES.
Husband: probably not.
He’s wrong.

What’s your holiday comfort read?
I love a cozy reread, welcoming me home over and over again.
I don’t have a specific one for this holiday season. So this year I’ve decided on The Invisible Life Addie LaRue.
