There is something so romantic and comforting about a local coffee shop that the big bad Starbucks just can’t replicate. ☕️ @bluenose_coffee #Local #Chai #WritersLife #WritingCommmunity
I recently started book 3 (not finished with 2 but an idea hit me & I had to run with it). Meet Melissa: recently divorced & discovering her love of cooking while taking classes with her best friend Penny…and stirring up new romance along the way. #WritingCommunity #AmQuerying

You may not know my 2nd novel since I’m not as active here as other platforms. Book 2 - A Pocketful of Yesterdays - follows a family learning to live after losing their mom to cancer. A single dad, a teenage daughter, a young son, & lots of therapy. #WritingCommunity #AmQuerying

After ten amazing years of building mentorships and an online community of writers, #PitchWars and #PitMad are coming to an end. As an entirely volunteer-run event, we are truly overjoyed and grateful for the opportunity to assist so many writers on their journeys. 1/3

There is a sunrise now when we head outside for the school bus! It may be -30, but despite what it feels like, spring IS coming. As someone who battles seasonal depression, this sight leaves me so giddy and excited! 🌅 #MN #BoldNorth #HangInThere

Started my morning with another query rejection. So I sent out three more in its place. I feel like my kids: nothing like hearing a “no” from one person to fuel me to go seeking a “yes” from someone else! 🤪#AmQuerying #WritingCommunity #WriterMom

Love me some good fantastical action stories!
Peaceful, private and hiding in plain sight, the vampires of the world thrive. But tensions are rising, and a vampire civil war is inevitable. Now, sides will be taken, and peace may be just a hopeless dream. #PitMad DUNE × GAME OF THRONES X ANNE RICE
I like! Best of luck - would love to read this story some day!

Grief. Loss. Adventure. Life. Death. Growth. Margaret tests how far one can run to escape life’s harshest pains after a tornado kills her family. But when she meets Will after she runs to Hawaii, he encourages her to face life head on rather than run from it. #WF #A #PitMad

One bullet changed everything. One memory etched into her nightmares. One son she has to protect. One life she can't live bc she's busy surviving. Mia wears the guilt from her husband's suicide like a yoke. But also a blanket. Can she break from the cycle? #pitmad #A #F #MH
