Spending Juneteenth in a space with some of the best and brightest in DC. If you’re supporting Black businesses and creatives with intention today, I challenge you to keep that same energy year round. 🤎

Torrential storms did not keep devoted fans of @novelsbyapril.bsky.social  from the launch event for A SIMPLE TWIST OF FATE. And it did not damped the excitement. Readers were treated to a lively conversation between April and @tajmccoy.bsky.social . April, may the sun shine on your next event!

Author Maintenance Indulgent Behavior with Taj, March 2025

As an author, I relate to my writer friends most when we’re buried under deadlines and executive function isnt quite… functioning. The squad gets me when no one else does. 🙃

Bahahahha, that’s so relatable! 😅

I needed it too!! 😅

Hey, friends. What is your least favorite author admin/maintenance, and why is it updating your website?

As promised, my QM is open, but please don’t think that you have to rush. Take your time and submit when your manuscript is revised and polished. If I have your full, thank you for your patience!

Thank you!

This weekend!
