My family made a Don't Read the Comments cake for my book launch years ago, and the way it got cut into was... not the message I wanted to give people.

Surprised at how hard it is to get sponsors for the Philly Bookstore Crawl this year.

Really looking for folks who want to sponsor with giveaway books, totebags, etc.

Publishing friends, those boxes of leftover totes at the office? Books about to be remaindered? Hi. Yes. Me.

If you’re a fan of post-apocalypse fiction and you’ve already read The Road, The Handmaid’s Tale, and Station Eleven, I suggest TRASHLANDS by Alison Stine. It’s one of those storylines that haunts me almost daily. #booklovers

Email 1: No worries!

Email 2: Oh, no worries.

Email 3: No worries if not, LOL-

I scream. My jaw unhinges. From my gaping maw springs an endless number of worries, crawling out from the inner abyss, for I am in fact, all worries.

*me watching all the good things happen for ICARUS by Kayla Ancrum ✨on Deadline✨*

“Yes! Fly, Icarus, fly!”

*short pause*

“Oh wait.”

Wholesome note, I'm getting a lot of query followups from authors who have rep offers lately. Like, rapid fire.

Colleagues are reading. Things are happening. And I love seeing it, even if it means I'm missing out. 💛

So proud of Kate Fussner - THE SONG OF US (out now) and her special book, The Song of Us. 💜

The best advice I ever got from my accountant was to have a separate credit card for all my author life expenses. Helps so much this time of year.

Make sure to forget to use it halfway through the year though in order to get the full experience. Being mad at yourself is key.
