It's a fantastic book - download it - buy it - or just borrow it and read it. The Dust Bowl Triolgy are worth the effort.

Accidentally Dead by Daylight-ed until 2am on a work night 🙃😭

I should probably be better about posting but stg being a human is hard enough lol

My aesthetic as an author is exhausted beverage goblin, there is no order here only chaos.

Me: I have been got, crumpled under the pressure of capitalistic urges beyond my human discipline

My husband: Did you finally get tired of Google Docs not having dark mode and bought Scrivener

Me: it's like going from driving a beat up hooptie to a lambo where has this been all my life 😭😭😭😭

What is being consistent with social media even mean, though? Like I can't even muster the energy to talk to myself most of the time.
But I like yall better so 😘

He was genuinely funny and most of all, humble. It was an honor to meet him and I will cherish my signed copy forever 💖

"If you're not doing something good with what you've got, then what are you doing?"
It's an honor to meet one of my favorite authors at our local library.
As an aspiring author, it's inspiring that an author from our town can make it in the industry-

One mistake I made was dedicating to a project without ever even discovering my process. Realizing that authors are not just artists, but the art as well was an important lesson. So, until I get halfway through a project I probably won't formally announce it but I will still update here as I write 😘

Chapter 2 of my WIP is underway! Shout out, again, to the wonderful Katytastic on YouTube for her wonderful series on Building a Book, specifically her 27 Chapter Outline technique. #AmWriting #Author #Authortube

Project Kainsworth update: first page of my first draft. It feels so good to be writing regularly again!
#AmWriting #WIP #Author

I also took the time and highlighted the plot points that were the pivotal quarter marks like she mentioned, and I like picking the color of the highlight to be pleasing when I print it :)

So I'm just about wrapped up with working Project: Kainsworth into the 27 Chapter outline and I'm officially saying that it's going to be my go-to for future WIPs. It really helps me with a bird's eye view of the major plot points while giving me the freedom of details. 10/10 I recommend!

Absolutely, I started the template last night and it clicks with my brain so well. I want to finish the outline before I give my final thoughts but I really jive with this system of outlining!

I honestly am going to try her outline with my current wip and will update how it goes. The 'tism and ADHD makes it difficult to keep on track and I'll try anything to see if it works lol

Let’s settle this: books are far from obsolete. In fact, they’re thriving—timeless companions in a fast-moving world.

Every time I go to a public library I begin to believe again that we can create amazing things that are just there for all to enjoy and use for free.

Some additional screenshots of this build 💜

I am obsessed with this little game 👻🌳🧹

In YA Fantasy, published in 2021, the Prison Healer blew me away when I read it last year.
The ending had me staring at the wall after I read ut, mouth agape.

Project: Kainsworth word count 1/2/2025: 823
Not a ton of progress, but I'm dedicated to this project and will have a draft for debut this year!

You know you're a writer when the words "I hate this" escape your lips when you actually have to write 🙃🤌
