I want a new contract, longer tours, more speaking gigs, more short stories in awesome anthologies, and to make a bestseller list. I dream big, but the main dream is writing itself. Also, I must work my ass off trying to make those happen because no one owes me anything.

Happy Winter Solstice!

I'm celebrating with a book, a pot of coffee, a warm snuggly blanket... and silence. ❤️

Write that book. Send that story. Query that agent. Ask for that blurb. Maybe it doesn’t work out, but there’s a chance it will, and that chance—however small you think it is—is all you need.

Alright! Started working on a literary agent starter pack on here, for all my writer friends out there!

I'm finally here, just scrolling, strolling & searching for my reading & writing friends. I'll just read a few chapters while I wait for people to find me. 📚
