I had the honor of being a guest on the Unfortunately...Podcast! If you're a writer who has ever gotten an "Unfortunately..." message, this podcast is for you! It's a writer to writer discussion about craft and how we learn from failures. Here's my episode, but you should listen to them all!
How about a little preview of our next episode (out Friday!) for your Tuesday scroll?
We chatted with @sasahawk.bsky.social about identifying your own patterns, plotting vs pantsing, writing synopses, genre labels as marketing tools, promo strategies, and more! #WritingCommunity #WritingPodcast
It was so fun talking to you!!! Thanks for having me on the show!

Independent Bookstore Day is Saturday April 26! It's a great day to support local businesses & stick it to The Zon, who is trying to poach sales with their own event. As for me, I'll be signing UNLOCK THE DARK (and shopping) at Plenty Bookshop and A Little Bookish this weekend!

UK readers: UNLOCK THE DARK releases TODAY!!! I'm so thrilled to share this story with you! I've always wanted to travel all over the UK, and it makes me so happy that this little piece of me is out there living my dreams in UK bookstores. Now go grab the book and let me take you on an adventure! ✨🗝️
Canadian friends, please pay attention to this. As a US citizen who is horrified by the crumbling relationship between our countries, I understand why Canada is retaliating our tariffs with their own. But this one hurts Canadian authors too!

Only 30 days until my YA Fantasy, UNLOCK THE DARK, releases!! I can't wait!!!
Even if it's (⏰) back, I distrust it now. 😒 I'm rooting for the next thing!
Since it looks like we're losing Booktok 😭, I went ahead and reserved my username on Tome! If you do it before the ban, it will auto-follow your faves on Tiktok. Idk if this is the app of the book community's future, but I'm happy to participate if so!

The book I just wrote takes place in a magical mountain region in summer. Somehow the meta algorithm figured this out and has been showing me travel reels and ads for Switzerland. Idk what I googled to get these stunning videos, but I don't mind one bit. I think I need to visit...for research! 🤓
🏆 turned in book 2 on time!!!
🤫 Now I'm on deadline for a secret project related to Unlock the Dark
📣 After that, I have all kinds of fun promo planned for release month!
