People have been asking me to reopen my etsy for like 4 years and I'm finally working on it! (it's not open yet but SOON). I have so much catgirl merch... what happened to me to make me like this......

When I dreamed about being an author, having a book I wrote loved enough to be on a classroom wall was not even a thought in my mind. But thanks to a kind teacher and students, they made a dream I didn't know I had come true. 🥹 I can’t say this enough: thank you to all my readers! I adore you! 🖤🖤🖤🖤

"What movie traumatized you as a child" All of them. It was 1985, there were no non-traumatic movies to watch as a child

I get 5 solid days to revise a new/old adult project and it's the first real mini-writing retreat I've had since covid shutdown. I can't tell you how happy this makes me.

So hi new followers, some things about me. I talk about trauma bc I've lived it, autistics bc we're cool af, mental health bc the world has gone dark & it's us sensitives who carry the sometimes too heavy lights. I'm a widow. A poet, and write to make you feel. I'm a 4th cousin of Emily Dickinson 💀

Kids crave horror because living in the dark is terrifying without a guide. I know. Like my fellow scary book authors, I've been in that dark space, wondering I'd ever be found. Horror authors found me and lit me the path home. We who write from the shadows light the lanterns to show the way.

Writing while grieving has been so hard. Having to finish IZZY as my husband was dying & after he died gave me a trauma trigger that's kept me away. But today, I'm here at 4am on my day off and trying. Baby steps, Bob would say. Baby steps, grievers. Healing has to come first. xo

Just a reminder that whatever review you got, doubts you have, age you are, bs they said, clothes you wear, $ you have, or how many times you've been pushed down, you fucking matter, okay. I believe in you.
