First book signing spotted in the wild. If your copy doesn’t come with a handwritten note and a little scribble, is it even official?

Is this imposter syndrome or just doubt talking? My debut drops in 7 days (that’s siete días, y’all)! It’ll either flop like my love life or scroll-build like my waistline.

Naturally turned a blind, missed-the-point review into a promo. Didn’t read the book, but had thoughts. Earth splits in two by removing an 'unwanted' race—and that’s the dealbreaker?
Writers, we suffer—then we market. 😂📚

Just leveled up! 🎉 Still no book deal or rich husband (unlike my characters—rude!), but I'll settle for chaotic karaoke nights, questionable life choices, and writing scenes I'll never show my therapist. 📚✨
Wish me luck this year—or better yet, send plot twists!
