Thank you so much!! 🥰

Yes!! It feels so good 😆

I’m hoping to hit 95k-100k before editing and then probably add another 10-15k after that! 😊

Anyone else see their scenes like a movie/show and just type them out as fast as they can?? Or is that just me? #writer #bookish #author

Got myself a bag of gummy candy as a reward if I wrote more that 1,000 words tonight.. and I wrote 1,200!! 😆 So guess who is enjoying her sweet treat right now??

My auntie and bestie is writing a book!! And look, I made her a (temporary) cover!! Authoring is fun 😊

😍😍😍 still waiting on my “best author assistant ever” mug/shirt 😂😂
Can’t believe that was 2023! Time flies!!

When you give your FMC anxiety and incredibly doubtful thoughts and when you read back through you say, “aww you poor thing, don’t say that” but then you realize you’re pulling from your own experience and you should really be saying that to yourself 🥹😭 😭

Thank you!! 😆

I just hit 60,000 words on my fantasy romance debut!!! I’m so happy I could CRY 😭 I never thought I’d actually be capable of writing a whole as book but here I am!! 😍😆

Yuppp I opened my notes app immediately 😂 I just have to make sure I don’t get sucked in!

I literally had a dream last night that was super vivid and had me considering writing it down and getting lost in it… but NO! Need to focus on current project 😂

Thank you Stevi!!! 💚💚
