It’s Feral Friday. What trope completely destroys your sanity in the best way? Mine: bi-awakening and friends-to-lovers. Every time. 💜🔥

This or That: when you’re reading or writing, do you want absolute silence or background music? I’m genuinely curious where you fall. 💜📚🎧

#ThisOrThat #ReadingCommunity #AmWriting #Bookish #WriterLife

Weekly reading check-in: I’m reading Omegaverse again like it’s a normal, socially acceptable pastime. What wonderfully unhinged book are you curled up with today? 💜📚

There’s no one “correct” way to write. Your process doesn’t have to look like anyone else’s to be valid. Follow your obsessions, trust your instincts, and build the path that works for you. 💜✨

#WritingCommunity #AmWriting #IndieAuthor #WriterLife #CreativeJourney
A dark purple graphic with rounded squares and pale accents. The header reads “Motivational Monday.” Below it is a Franz Kafka quote: “Don’t bend; don’t water it down; don’t try to make it logical; don’t edit your own soul according to the fashion. Rather, follow your most intense obsessions mercilessly.” The handle @samanthajacobsauthor appears at the bottom.

Sunday vibes: resting, resetting, and convincing myself that Monday won’t jump out from behind a bookshelf.

Here’s to a gentle day and a smoother week ahead. 💜✨

Weekend check-in: what are you reading to unwind after the holiday chaos?

I’m ready to curl up, breathe a little easier, and fall into a good story. 💜📚

#WeekendReads #ReadingCommunity #Readers #Bookish #CozyVibes
A purple-gradient background with large text reading “Weekend Reading Check In” and “What are you reading this weekend?” Below it says, “After the hustle and bustle of the holiday, it’s time to get comfy on the couch and take some time to unwind.” At the bottom left is an illustration of pastel-colored books, and on the right is a cute duck wrapped in a plaid blanket reading a book.

Powered today by caffeine, sarcasm, cat hair, and enough spite to scale a mountain.

Happy Feral Friday to every writer held together by vibes alone. 💜🔥🐈

#WriterLife #CreativeChaos #IndieAuthor #AmWriting #FridayVibes
A lavender watercolor background with a gold glitter circle in the center. Inside the circle, bold handwritten text reads, “Fueled by caffeine, sarcasm, cat hair, and spite.” In the bottom corners are simple purple line illustrations of a steaming coffee cup and a sitting cat.

Grateful today for the messy drafts, stubborn characters, and all the people who make writing feel a little less lonely.

Hope your day is gentle and full of tiny joys. 💜✨🦃

#Gratitude #WritingCommunity #AuthorLife #AmWriting #IndieAuthor
A soft purple graphic with floral line art at the top and an open book with blooming flowers at the bottom. The main text reads, “What are you most thankful for in your writing journey?” Beneath it, a purple speech-bubble shape contains the text: “Sometimes it’s a little difficult to find gratitude when your characters are misbehaving or when you’re on your 8th rewrite. Take a moment and reflect on what you’re most grateful for.”

Every WIP has that one line that makes you pause and think, “oh, that’s the good stuff.”

Not the hook, not the showstopper—just the sentence that reminds you why you love writing.

Share yours. Let’s hype each other up. 💜✨

#AmWriting #WritingCommunity #IndieAuthor #WIP #CreativeLife
A pale lavender background with watercolor clouds. The text at the top reads, “Work in Progress.” Below it, smaller text says, “Share your favorite line from your current work in progress. Not the best, not the hook. The line that makes you go, ‘Oh, damn. That’s the good stuff.’” At the bottom is an illustration of an open book stacked with lavender flowers and a mug of purple liquid.

Life’s too short to read books that make you want to fight God.

If a story gives me the ick, the rage, or the “nope, I’m out” energy—I’m gone.

Tell me the most unhinged reason you DNF’d a book this year. I crave the chaos. 💜📚🔥

#DNFStories #BookishChaos #Readers #BookCommunity #BookHumor
A vibrant purple graphic with cloud shapes at the top and plant silhouettes along the bottom. Large cursive text reads, “Life is too short to read bad books.” Below that, smaller text says, “Tell me the most unhinged reason you DNF’d a book this year.”

Starting the week with a soft reminder: you can edit a messy page, but you can’t edit a blank one.

Show up, even if it’s imperfect.

Small steps count. You’ve got this! 💜✨

#MotivationalMonday #AmWriting #AuthorLife #WritingCommunity #YouGotThis #CreativeLife
A soft purple-to-pink gradient background with the heading “Motivational Monday.” In the center is the quote, “You can edit a bad page. You can’t edit a blank page.” — Jodi Picoult. Decorative star accents frame the quote. At the bottom is the username @samanthajacobsauthor.

Trying to make the writing life feel gentle again.
Soft rain, warm coffee, little moments worth holding onto—
& all these stories waiting for the right people to hear them.

Some days the words come slow, some days they bloom all at once—but the quiet moments in between are where the magic lives.

#AmWriting #AuthorLife #IndieAuthor #WritingCommunity #WriterVibes #Bookish #RomanceWriter #FantasyWriter #UrbanFantasy #CreativeProcess #WritingMood #Aesthetics
A 3x3 collage with a soft purple theme. The left column shows three pale lavender squares with text: “Quiet moments… big dreams,” “Stories in bloom,” and “Dream. Draft. Repeat.” The center column features a cup of coffee beside a notebook and pen, then a floral typewriter surrounded by colorful flowers, and below that a workspace with purple-toned notebooks and stationery. The right column shows a rainy car window at dusk, an open book with lilac sprigs, and a tabby cat lying among lavender. The overall aesthetic is dreamy, cozy, and creative.

Weekend forecast: 99% chance of staying in and falling in love with fictional people.
Whether it’s romance, fantasy, or a little bit of both—my plans are officially canceled in favor of reading.

#FullyBooked #WeekendReads #BookLover #RomanceReaders #FantasyReaders #UrbanFantasy #ReverseHaremBooks
A soft purple and pink graphic with floral outlines and circular accents. In the center, large text reads “My weekend is fully booked.” Below the text is an illustration of a closed lavender book. The design has a cozy, bookish, and pastel aesthetic.

Back at the keyboard. New ideas, more chances to spiral over fictional people who will never text me back.
#AmWriting #AuthorLife #RomanceWriter #FantasyAuthor #UrbanFantasy #ReverseHarem #WritingCommunity #IndieAuthor #BookishBluesky
A styled graphic with a photo of a hand resting on a laptop keyboard lit with rainbow backlighting. The laptop screen above is open to a blank document. The photo is framed like a Polaroid on a purple textured background with floral illustrations and a strip of purple star-patterned tape at the top. At the bottom of the Polaroid frame, handwritten text reads, “Back at the keyboard… New ideas, more chances to crash out over people who don’t exist.”

My TBR is already taller than I am, but I like to live dangerously.

Romance? Fantasy? Urban fantasy? Reverse harem? Omegaverse?

Tell me the best book you’ve read recently.

No horror, no thrillers—my heart can't take it.

#IndieAuthor #IndieBooks #WhyIsMyTBRSoLong #BookishChaos #BookAddict
A purple-and-gold graphic asking, “What is the best book you’ve read recently?” The words are written in black and white cursive over a cloud of dark purple watercolor. A small stack of purple books sits in the bottom left corner, and pink and lavender stars float in the upper right. The text along the bottom says, “Comment down below so I can start building my 2026 TBR…” The overall design has a dreamy, bookish, fantasy vibe.

I was filling out my daily reading tracker for September... It's wild to me that I read almost every day in both August AND September, except the 14th.

Don't ask me what I was doing. I have no earthly idea.

I saw a video today talking about pet names MMC's give FMC's... specifically in the romantasy genre. Things like "little bird" or "starlight." She said most are infantilizing. O_o

What do you think?

This video brings me so much joy.

They come by every September on their way south (I guess? I dunno, I'm not a goose.)

I have this leather cube footstool that I use under my desk. It was too short, but it was better than nothing. Hubby 3D printed me some feet and I glued them to the bottom. Used my TBR to make sure the glue cured correctly. Well. Part of it anyway.

No, it's fine, Abigail. I didn't have three chapters I wanted to edit today. Really, it's cool. You just nap right here. Claire, Grant, and Killian will just have to wait their turn. It's fine. This is fine.

I made an oops. One of Claire's Familiars was named Peppermint for the longest time. I changed it to Aengus, or Gus for short. I did a Find and Replace completely forgetting about Claire's fav drink. This is the result. 🤦‍♀️

I didn't get a single word edited this weekend. But I did get to cuddle this cutie, so I guess that's a good compromise. 😍😂

I'm getting kinda (but not really) close to needing a book cover. Started playing around in Canva tonight...just to see what I could throw together. Thoughts?
