A simple text in August 2024 reminded me of a dream I’d buried. I thought I’d walk away again—but I didn’t. And it changed everything. If you’ve put your dream on a shelf, maybe today is the day you dust it off.

Thrillers: scary, messy… and full of hope??
I explain why “nice girls” like me write them — and why it matters — on my Substack.

When Stepping Away Becomes Part of the Story
This weekend, I gave myself 48 hours away from my manuscript, from my characters, from the deadlines waiting in the wings.

Writing is strange.
Messy.
Beautiful.
Lonely.
But full of quiet victories. 💛
To everyone sitting with their words today: keep showing up. Trust the process. You’re not alone — we’re in this together, even when apart. ✨ We need you and what you’re writing. #writingcommunity #writer #author #art

The “writing process” in 3 moods:
☕️ romantic cafe scribbles
😵💫 existential crisis in pajamas
💀 rewriting one sentence for an hour

Writers: when you get your agent’s notes, do you do one big revision pass first or revisit sections as new notes come in? My agent reads & responds in chunks, and I’m curious how others handle it. We plan to do 2 full passes total—maybe 3. #writingcommunity #writesky #amrevising #amediting

Such a fantastic writing day!! Knocked out four chapters of revisions and actually feel confident in them. Some days I creep myself out with what my mind creates—today’s chapters were dark, and I’m so here for it. #amwriting #writingcommunity #amrevising #amediting #writer #author #thriller

Been deep in revisions and character chaos lately. Writing messy, morally gray women is exhausting… but also thrilling. Anyone else love their characters a little too much? #writingcommunity #writesky #writer #author #amediting #amrevising #amwriting

My coffee addiction isn’t that noticeable. I just get headaches, can’t think straight, and become lightheaded when I forget to drink a cup. I think that’s just normal authorial behavior! #Funny #Writing #Coffee #CoffeeAddict #Humor #Author #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #BookSky #Writers #WritingHumor

Rumor has it AI might replace authors.
But can it spiral over a single line of dialogue at 3 a.m.?
Didn’t think so.

The world is already dark—so why do we crave psychological thrillers? They let us face fear & obsession safely, give shape to shadows we can’t name. We can close the book, breathe again. That’s why I read them. That’s why I write them. 🖤 #amrevising #writingcommunity #amwriting #writesky

As a person who struggles with writing anything shorter than a full novel, the character limit on this app is a great lesson in how to edit down to only the important parts 😂

Ever wondered what it’s like to have an editorial, collaborative agent? For me, it feels like the closest thing to my dream of sitting in a TV writers’ room—ideas flying, stories cracking open, and everything getting sharper together. #writingcommunity #amediting #amrevising #writesky #writer #art

15 chapters deep into a reverse outline as I prep for revisions next week 👀 (only 58 to go—my back and shoulders are already protesting 😮💨). Do you outline before drafting, or unravel it after like me?
