IT’S TIME FOR #ChaosPit
Join us for the third whacky April Fool’s Day event where you pitch your books as chaotically as possible, for funsies.
Memes. AITA posts. Bad comps. Horrible elevator pitches. It’s all fair game.
(I do not host this, just boosting as a mod for the discord that does.)
Hello, I am still alive.
Wanted poster featuring five characters. Guilty of burglary, larceny, forgery, fraud, kidnapping and disturbing the peace.
Turns out, people LOVE a heist book 👀👀

Writers need community, and I’ve been craving a space that focuses on the craft—on helping writers (at all stages, with all goals) grow into the best writer they can be… so I made one.
Introducing booked! 🔗 in my 🔗🎄

She definitely takes things dark sometimes! 😆
My six year old niece is practicing her jokes. Here’s an example:
What happens when raccoons die?
People bury them!
We are road trippin’ today and our car conversation so far has exclusively been creating a breakfast menu for Zaxby’s. 😅🤣
MS Word Pro: the onedrive connectivity means I can use it across four different devices without having extra steps.
MS Word Con: sometimes if the last version doesn't finish uploading I have to go through four devices to figure out which one has the draft.

Here for a sassy house. ✨
It’s rainy and chilly, and the weather is supposed to carry into the weekend. Plus, my husband will be out of town. You know what that means? 👀✨
I hope the words are finding you more easily!
It seems fitting that B&N is doing a preorder sale while I’m currently watching the consequences of my own actions from April taking charge. But hey, I’m getting six new books in the next two weeks!
Currently in the part of writing where I stare at my screen and am surprised when an hour passes with only a hundred new words. 😅
Meddling gods? 👀
A blue book, surrounded by text: - plus sized rep - a sweater wearing dog you'd die for - STEM based magic - magical met gala - "it was always you" - rivals to lovers - messy, complicated family dynamics - low fantasy - hot magical engineer
artwork of a dark haired woman scowling at a smirking blond man
enchantments & adversaries: the playlist - feels like - gracie abrams - ceilings - lizzy mcalpine - the alchemy - taylor swift - 26 - paramore - sunlight - hozier
When her prototype fails, Cecilia partners with her college rival to fix her protection charms, but after weeks of blazing chemistry in the lab and the bedroom, she's falling for him—if only her research would ward her traitorous heart.

A purple background with a blazing pastel comet. Text reads: An Editor's Guide to Enchantments & Adversaries, A cozy romantasy complete at 95k combining the plus-sized lead and cozy setting of A Witch's Guide to Fake Dating a Demon with the banter and STEM-inist bent of Love on the Brain. Rep: Brent Taylor at Triada US.
A purple background with a blazing pastel comet. Text reads: the blurb: When Cecilia’s latest prototype—an amulet to protect non-magic persons—fails, her former college rival, Caspian Wolfe, offers resources from his magical engineering firm in exchange for co-credit. Despite her reservations he’s still the man who deals in hostile jabs and animosity, she relents, putting her research first. After weeks of blazing chemistry in the lab and between the sheets, Cecilia finds herself falling for a man she’s terrified to trust—if only her research into protection charms would ward her traitorous heart. Rep: Brent Taylor at Triada US.
A purple background with a blazing pastel comet. A dark haired woman and blond man are center. Text reads: the vibes: - plus-sized lead finding her power - complicated, messy family dynamics - strong, female friendship - cozy, modern fantasy setting - STEM based magic - "It was always you" - book covers for 'Do Your Worst' by Rosie Danan, 'Love on the Brain' by Ali Hazelwood, 'The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches' by Sangu Mandanna, 'A Witch's Guide to Fake Dating a Demon' by Sarah Hawley. Rep: Brent Taylor at Triada US.
A purple background with a blazing pastel comet. Text reads: chapter one - My magic rushes through the front door and finds nothing but static from the cottage’s inhabitant. It’s a glaring reminder I don’t belong here. I hesitate on the front porch, frowning at the doormat. Home, sweet home. I hadn’t considered my parents’ house my home in over a decade, after how they’d reacted when my long dormant magic stretched to life. I still remember the looks on their faces. My mother paled with unease; my father reddened with rage. For most, magic found its way to the surface before puberty. As early as seven or eight, but not past twelve. Tense breaths and watchful eyes filled my first twelve years, coupled with near constant reminders I wouldn’t have magic. As the daughter of two magicless, it was statistically improbable I’d break the mold... Rep: Brent Taylor at Triada US.
Adding benefits with her hot, magical engineer rival seems risk averse, but when Cecilia realizes he’s no longer the man he once was, it’s too late to use their research into protective magic to ward her heart...

I may have done 20% of the cleaning I wanted to today, but draft 2 of museum WIP is well on its way. ✨

Why is “be uncomfortable” so much a part of it though? 😅
Thank you!!! 🩷

Multicolored test tubes with the text “this and stem-based magic”
A mammoth library with the text “this and agreeing to a research partnership with your college rival, only to realize he’s a much better man than you thought he was”
A snowy night & street lamp with the text “this and ambling walks where holding his hand feels like the most natural thing in the world (and chocolate marshmallow pies)”

Your honor, I love them. 🩷🩷🩷
I think one of the weirdest parts about being on sub with no book sold is that I feel like I’m in a vortex where nothing and everything is happening and I don’t know what to talk about on social media. 😅
It’s been a while since I’ve done a #WIPSnips, so here’s a peek at Museum WIP, my cozy Romantasy in which a magical artifact causes a lot of love-based calamity. 😅

Ugh, I hope you start feeling like yourself again soon! 🩷🩷🩷
I’ve always joked I could live off potatoes and though I still think that’s true if I see mashed potatoes again before thanksgiving, it’ll be too soon.
Got all 4 wisdom teeth taken out yesterday under general anesthesia (they were worried because one is all tangled up in a nerve, but it was okay!) so today calls for Aussie cuddles & an LOTR marathon. 🩷
Drop line 8 from page 187 of your MS and tag 3 friends
“I’m drenched.”
(Yes, the context is exactly what you think it is 😅)
I’m not going to tag, but if you think this sounds rad and no one has tagged you, pls feel free to reshare! 🫶
Picture this: it’s 10a. My nervous Aussies are finally settling post fire works and being their normal selves. And all of a sudden? A succession of booms.
The Aussies are nervous and while hide for the rest of the day again. 😭
