#WIPSnips somebody had to know that NSFW content was going to come from this word. I have marked this adult in an abundance of caution though this is pretty tame (it's suggestive dialogue).

From "Vanilla (with Sprinkles)."

Has your writer friend ever said "ugh, I wish someone would just force me to write my book!"

Would you like to send them a thinly-veiled threat and call it a Christmas gift? books2read.com/u/bwJrGZ

(I do not support actually kidnapping writers...it's a joke)

What if instead of a fairy godmother, Cinderella was forced to make a bargain with a dark fae: kiss the prince by midnight or be Jaxis's prisoner forever. 🖤

Also, what if upon learning the magical rules, Cinderella realizes she can turn Jaxis into a bunny? 🐇

In my recently published #novella, I have a segment about how the true lesson of #Thanksgiving is that all great writers doubt themselves at some point. It was probably the most divisive chapter when I was getting critique on "The Lurker."

"The Lurker" is finally published! It's been a long road and my next project is something completely different, but for now the Lurker has retreated to my basement. 🍊

My debut novella, which is an absolutely unhinged parable about how to write a first draft, comes out this Friday!

Do you ever wish someone would just force you to start writing? Welcome to the basement. 😈

I have "backwards" in an untitled project where my MC turns a dark fae into a bunny 🐇 in the hopes that he'll give up on his romantic kidnapping goals. (also this is unedited #nanowrimo so be kind)

#WIPSnips from my #nanowrimo project. I cannot resist putting "tries to seduce by offering a library" into a fantasy romance. ❤️

From "Vanilla (with Sprinkles)": when your ex meets your 'situation' at a wedding and then they bond over teasing you.

"You’re always typing away, but never on that novel.” 📖

If the idea of someone reading your old fanfic out loud, while you're helpless to stop it, scares you...start writing before he comes.

Kiss the prince by midnight, or be dragged to the fae realm forever.

[Still Untitled] is a Cinderella retelling with a twist! 🐇

Picture if you will, a horror story where your captor takes a red pen to your first draft in front of you. All you can do is pound the glass and beg. 👻

(You may suspect it's actually meta-humor and you would be correct.)

On October 31st, you dressed up for Halloween; on November 1, you woke up in his basement.

That's while you'll be rough drafting your novel in a set of skeleton sweats. 👻

You could write a great story...and he knows it. He'll poke whatever hurts to make those fingers move (metaphorically of course).

Listen #Writers, I don't know how to market this book (I don't know how to market in general), but it is very short and contains humor aimed at other writers. So maybe by the end of 60ish pages you'll have a laugh and decide that you'd like to give me a chance as an author.

The only thing scarier than writing your novel, is not writing your novel.

#TheLurker coming this November!

So, I was at a nearby book store recently and I went to the kids section and they had an area for local authors. This book caught my attention from the really nice illustration, so I bought it and plan to give it to my kid as part of Christmas. 1/2

These are my co-working pets....whether I like it or not. The two of them have actually inspired a lot of writing from me, but mostly they nudge up next to me until I don't even notice that thinking of the right word also includes a skritch behind the ears.
