The *almost* finished Caedan and Catori! (I asked my artist to add a little smoke and shadow down below Caedan's tail but didn't get another picture before the bandage went on).

I'm so thrilled with this piece, words cannot explain. 🥰🥰

#Writetip: Keeping your name and your books in front of readers is important, but it’s also important to be honest about your mental health and social media can be hard on us. Sometimes it’s more important to take a break than to connect online. Balance is key

There’s something so relaxing about having work done on your tattoo. Bliss!

I'm nothing if not good at memorable 😊 #writingjokes #reading #writingquotes #amwriting

Today is a great day to invest in some extremely queer Gothic horror 👀

Back at Esperanza Ink Tattoos for the first time in over a year. At long last, it's time to finish my Caedan and Catori tattoo! #FantasyArt #TattooArt #Inked #Tatted

One of the best ways to spend time chilling is playing my favorite video games 😊

I wish tips would just be given directly and in a simple way 😊 #writingjokes #reading #writingquotes #amwriting

#Writetip: One of the best ways to see if your dialogue works or if the movements you’ve described are realistic is to sometimes be practical with it. Read the conversations out loud. Get up and move in the way you described. It can help polish the scenes.

This feels very on point 😊 #writingjokes #reading #writingquotes #amwriting

Why are Sundays so short? I need more down time so I can really rest!

#Writetip: When you’ve finished your first draft, the best thing to do is to save it and put it one side for a few weeks. The idea is to give your brain enough time to forget so that you can approach your edits with a fresh eye. Makes it easier to spot issues

#Writetip: Weekends are usually a time to catch up with household chores, run errands or perhaps spend time with family. If you’re lucky, you might be able to factor in some really good writing time too. Make the most of it, but remember balance is important!

Let me see your favorite pics of your pets from this week.

I wish this wasn't so true 😊 #writingjokes #reading #writingquotes #amwriting

#Writetip: Limit your distractions as much as you can when you’re writing. Treat that time as sacred. Whether you have a whole day or just 20 min, that time is for you to work so mute your phone, stay offline and get as many words down as you can.

I need at least one extra day to just sleep late, read and unwind 😊

I'm sure some of mine have aged out waiting for the next installment 😊 #writingjokes #reading #writingquotes #amwriting

I am working on a sapphic supernatural romance series spanning stories over three centuries, and also (under a different pen name) a supernatural weird west/grim dark adventure series.

I don’t think I’m cut out to do this “work” thing every week till I’m old 😊

There's such a thing as being too accurate 😊 #writingjokes #reading #writingquotes #amwriting

#Writetip: You can’t always learn every single type of social media, so you need to figure out which ones are most efficient and useful to promote your books and focus on getting as good as you can at it. And you can always look into a course to help you learn.

#Writetip: Promoting your books can be really tough for most of us because we’re not always comfortable putting ourselves front and center. It’s important that you figure out what works for you and do your best. You can't sell what people don't see!

😂😂 Right? Like, we only gave them life, no big deal.
