Sometimes it feels like the only followers I have over here are bots with bios like “I lov pets my number one” but if you’re real I’m running a li’l giveaway over on the ‘Gram 😘
Evergreen trees, the covers of RULES FOR SECOND CHANCES and YOU, WITH A VIEW, and text reading “giveaway” Description of shared vibes of the two books: To do: outdoors, seek out a beautiful vista, then ignore it and look at each other. Indoors, curl up with cosy blankets, soft cushions, and nostalgic family photos. To listen: “have yourself a merry little Christmas.“ Beautiful, hopeful, happy and sad at the same time. To drink: mulled wine – spicy, bittersweet, and intoxicating. To decorate: use evergreen boughs and pine cones. To celebrate: Plan something small and intimate. Two would be the perfect number of guests. To give: a keepsake that costs nothing and means everything.

HI FRENS what a weird time to have good news, but…I have some? Biggest thanks and unhinged screaming to editor Alicia Clancy, agent Claire Friedman, and Badell for going on this swoony, spicy, STEMmy adventure with me! LET THE BONE JOKES…BEGIN
Punisher’s Marketplace announcement: Maggie North’s FOSSIL FEUD, in which a renegade paleontologist on the verge of a major breakthrough must team up with a stuffy, unfairly attractive British academic to make a T. Rex-sized discovery – before her scheming ex-boyfriend beats her to it, to Alicia Clancy at Bantam Dell, in a six-figure deal, at auction, in a two-book deal, for publication in summer 2026, by Claire Friedman at Inkwell Management (world).

It’s release day for THE RIPPLE EFFECT 🩷😭🩷😭🩷 This book shattered my heart, ruined my life, saved my soul, and put together my broken pieces better than before. She’s my defiant second child; the best, purest, deepest part of me. Welcome to the world, little star. I’ll forgive you if you forgive me 🩷
Trope graphic for the ripple effect: one year after the best, worst, hook up of our times; it’s a cruel summer with you; gentle giant loves giving, ahem; black cat meets golden retriever; only one tent; summer camp for adults; promise you’ll hold onto me *heart emoji* The cover of the ripple effect (a giant ginger man stands in a Canadian mountain river, holding a petite blonde woman in his arms) super imposed against a mountain highway. The Author has done some very mid graphics to showcase a snippet of text: “ where are you heading?” “How about your place?” Breath comes out of him in a catch, then a rush. He turns my way, darkness falling in those eyes of midnight moss. Character art for the ripple effect. A giant ginger man cradles and injured blonde woman in his arms. He looks very worried, which tracks, because they seem to be in a beautiful campsite in the middle of nowhere and it’s already sunset Cover reveal graphic for the ripple effect showing a man gaping with interest at cover details: the female character’s Star Wars tattoos, the male character’s longish ginger hair, the way his fingers sink into her ass a little

Current energy: cross post everything, everywhere lolollll

THE RIPPLE EFFECT, coming June 17, 2025
Alt: a writer tries to cram everything she loves about her sad, horny book into one info graphic, and fails. She eventually settles on a photo of the cover for THE RIPPLE EFFECT, the release date (June 17, 2025), and a few tropes and hooks: one year after the best, worst hookup of our times; it’s a Cruel Summer with you; summer camp for adults; only one tent; I’m not pining, you’re pining; gentle giant loves giving (ahem); black cat X golden retriever; PROMISE YOU’LL HOLD ON TO ME 🩷

THE RIPPLE EFFECT is featured in today’s WF Category Spotlight on Netgalley, and to celebrate, she is READ NOW from 11/18-12/24! If you love a hot tattooed bi girlie who’s angry bc she cares, plus the world’s McHugest cinnamon roll with a surprisingly spicy center, go get your love 💕 Link in my bio
Book cover of THE RIPPLE EFFECT: a tall redheaded man with a full beard stands in a blue mountain river, ripples spreading from his legs. He’s holding a small blonde woman in his arms, her legs around his waist. She’s got an undercut and a strong face; she reaches to touch his face with one tattooed arm. Canada never looked so hot
