The First Week
What a week! As someone who has never published a book before, I didn’t really know what to expect from the first week of my book being available to purchase. When I decided to write and publish this book, it was out of necessity. I had all these stories to tell, but wasn’t telling them,…

It’s Here!
Did we do it? Did I do it? Did I actually write and publish a book?! Yesterday was crazy busy. Between doctors appointments, an actual day job, therapy, and book release things, I may not have been able to manage well without coffee and snacks, but I made it! And we have a book! This…

How About Some Cookies?
I was supposed to post about Long Division today, but I’ve only gotten through the first side of the book. Book 1. I haven’t yet started Book 2 (flip it over and turn it upside down), so I can’t comment on it just yet. I will say, though, City is an interesting kid with interesting…

Proof
I have proof I wrote a book! Writing this book has been on my mind for several years, but it wasn’t until my short story “Makers of Men” was accepted for publication in midnight & indigo last year that I truly committed to publishing a collection of my own. I’d been writing Discovering My Outside…

My Favorite Season and Book Update
Tomorrow if the first day of fall, and I am so excited. I LOVE FALL! I love the colors, weather, layers, flavors… all of it. However, I hate Halloween, so I don’t get most into the fall spirit until November 1st. Even so, the next month or so is going to be busy with wrapping…

Pen Name or Nah?
One of the decisions I had to make when writing my book was what name I would be writing under. It seemed like an easy decision initially—first and last—but then I thought about getting married in the future and changing my last name and how I’d like all my books to be under one name…

A Book Cover Reveal
New post on a Friday? Something must be happening! Yup! My book cover has been finalized! YAY!! I’ve been impressed by the most complicated part of myself to reveal it slowly on Instagram over the next few weeks. Now, you could check out our Instagram page every Friday and Tuesday for the next six weeks…

Another Birthday and What I’m Looking Into for Fall
It has been a marvelous 5 days, but today marks my return to work. My birthday was Thursday (hello 33) so I took a couple days off (plus the holiday made 5). I’m usually really excited about my birthday and make plans to do something special, but the way this year started and the way…
