I'm going to try to hang out with you all by joining the #WIPSnips party! My first entry, based on vibes, because the word "memory" doesn't appear in any of my WIPs. :) #writesky #indieauthors #writingcommunity #shrimps
Memory WIPSnip: But still, he couldn’t shake the feeling that the filter blowing on his most complicated and delicate shrimp tank was a punishment for something he’d done in his past. There was no shortage of reasons the universe could be angry with him—a string of nonviolent crimes as a teen and young adult, years spent chasing approval of the worst people imaginable by being just as terrible himself, countless friends and acquaintances left in the wake of his reckless choices, ruining his own body and mind with a wide variety of vices. His shrimp were innocent, though. All twenty-two of them. They didn’t deserve to die because the cosmos decided a mid-October Wednesday evening was the best time for the filter to go out.

Hello BlueSky! I'm newer here, but would love to meet you.

My second book is coming out March 21, 2025, and I need ARC readers! If an MM romance about a professional wrestler and his best friend interests you, check out the link in my bio to sign up. #mmromance #arcreaderswanted #romancebooks
An image of a book cover with professional wrestlers on it. The title is Dropkicks and Dandelions and the author is Val Simons. The text of the graphic says best friends to lovers, shared grief, one sided pining, slow burn, hurt/comfort, found family, many plants, one iguana, professional wrestling. The bottom of the image says ARC readers wanted.
