Every writer faces doubt.
Keep writing, even when it’s hard.

Somewhere between doubt and courage,
a writer opens their laptop
and begins again.
That is how every story starts.
I'm deciding on whether to rework one of the many drafts I have or start a completely new story... decisions 🤔
You don’t have to write a perfect chapter today.
You don’t have to solve every plot hole.
You don’t have to feel inspired.
Just show up to the page.
One paragraph. One sentence. One idea.
It's my birthday 🥳
There is no single path in publishing. Every writer brings their own resources, choices, and vision to the journey.
🤣
A writer’s search history is either extremely suspicious or extremely boring.
There is no in between.
It's been one month since I published my debut novel.
Years of writing and editing. A major rewrite. Health setbacks. Doubt.
Still, I did it.

Happy Valentine's Day, everyone 😘
Hope you're all having an awesome day regardless of your relationship status!
Every draft is proof that you chose creation over doubt. ✨️
20 years... in my spare time. I've just published it 😅 (it feels like I've published a diary because of how long I worked on it)
Manifesting the day our stories find their readers.🕯️
Until then, keep writing, keep showing up, and keep believing in the magic of what you’re creating.
I've just released my debut novel the other day 😊
Thank you so much 🫶
I'm the same and will be stocking up on books to read throughout 2026!
Beyond publishing my book…
New year, new wheels -- just adding to my collection 🥳
Published my debut novel on Amazon and then discovered it can take up to 72 hours to go live.
The way I thought it was instant… 🤡
After years of writing, rewriting, and reimagining this story, I’m thrilled to share the first glimpse of SOMEWHERE BETWEEN LIES — the cover.
One more sneak peek before tomorrow's full cover reveal 👀
#CoverReveal #Books #WritingCommunity
It was covered on TikTok--very distressing footage. I feel sickened & traumatised by it. I've seen comments claiming that she was trying to run over an ICE agent, but you can see she was scared & running away. I'm failing to understand why there were so many of them there for 1 woman?
Oh, it is on other social media platforms!
Every writer says they’re ‘almost done’ in the same way people say they’re ‘five minutes away’...
Only 12 days until the full cover of SOMEWHERE BETWEEN LIES is revealed!!!
Book Release Date: 15 January 2025
💫 NEW YEAR
💫 NEW PAGES
✨️ Make every day count ✨️
💥Happy 2026, Everyone!💥
Merry Christmas Everyone! 🌲💚
Every year, a new theme. This year, I went all in on blue 💙
