Both my manager and a coworker bought copies of my book and asked me to sign them today 😭 part of me is bristling with discomfort because I’m being perceived 😂 but the other part of me is beyond grateful for their support 🥰 #WritingCommunity #indieauthor #indieauthors #selfpublished

My cat is marketing for me today!
Sokka says: “today’s the last day to get CHASING DARKNESS in ebook format under the intro price of $1.99!” If you still love a YA, portal fantasy w/ political intrigue, fated mates, & found family w/a sinister twist, check it out!

Everyone measures success differently—valid. But when I logged into my account on D2D and saw that I sold 11 units in the last two days, I did a double take. Coolest shit ever 😭🥰👏🏾 #authorsuccess #WritingCommunity #indieauthor #amwriting

It’s been 84 long years since I’ve participated in this. Here’s a snippet from my WIP, THE LOST PAGES. #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts

Idk if it’s me becoming a product of my environment or if being here just unearthed my proclivity for cloudy, autumn-esque weather. It’s feeling quite peaceful this morning. #pnw #oregon #portland

Getting my flat white when I looked over to see this.“Cielo” is the name I gave to the realm I created for my debut novel. Fun fact: the word “Cielo” means “heaven” in Spanish. CHASING DARKNESS uses many languages to pay homage to the cultures of immigrants that crossed from Earth. #AmWriting

Been up since 4, worked an extra 3 1/2 hours at my day job, came home and went straight to my laptop. Got in about 2,834 words today. It’s hard to tell what I actually wrote because I also edited previous chapters along the way. Time for BED! #WriteSky #TheLostPagesNovel #AmWriting #indieauthor

I worked my day job so only 1,427 words today, BUT my manuscript is so close to 50k words! #AmWriting #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #indieauthor
September 17, 2025 at 6:37 AM
So close to having a novel!
I was able to get in 6,111 words today. #AmWriting #WriteSky #WritingCommunity
September 16, 2025 at 1:17 AM
Not bad for today considering I was totally unmotivated to write! 5,835 words written takes #TheLostPagesNovel up to 32,995 words so far! #WIP #AmWriting #WritingCommunity

For you viewing pleasure, here are the covers I’ve had for my debut novel, CHASING DARKNESS. One and two didn’t even make it to see the light of day. Cover three was my former cover that I never truly loved and now I’m at cover 4. #ChasingDarknessNovel #WritingCommunity #IndieAuthor

Guys…🥹 my new book cover has landed.

The portal is once again opening and the Western Hollows welcomes you home…if the king is in a good mood.

The teaser trailer and preorder announcement are coming soon!

You’ve heard me chit chat about my newest work, “A Book from Beyond” but you’ve probably never seen the inspiration behind it, this is it. My mom passed on January 22nd, 2025 and soon after, I began writing this book. Anyway 🥲 today’s my mama’s birthday. #writingcommunity #amquerying

One tedious task down: new chapter header art.

Next? Drop caps and spacing 😭😂😮‍💨

(You can definitely tell by the condition of my screen that I live at my computer 😂😭)
