The Month Everything Began Flowing

 

This May has been one of momentum, creativity, confidence, and movement.

Earlier this month, I completed Tea Leaves, Pages & Starlight at 78k words — officially writing “The End” on a project that has meant a great deal to me. The novel will now rest for a few weeks before revisions and the querying process begin.

Of course, finishing one story means my brain immediately latched onto another… and what started as a dark fae prince enemies-to-lovers idea has somehow evolved into a dragon prince romantasy. As one does. ;)

Over on Inkitt, both The Starlight Prince and Kiss Me After the Kill continue to update regularly, and I’ve entered all three of my current stories into Inkitt’s Summer of Love Writing Contest.

I also share a few real-life updates, including thoughts on mid-life, family health struggles, PMDD, and the importance of supportive communities during difficult times.

And finally… there may or may not be discussion of creating an island full of hot vampires in the new Tomodachi Life game.
