🎉 It is with so much joy that I announce I’m now represented by @Michelle4Laughs with @StormLiterary ! I love Michelle’s vision for my YA novel featuring Deaf characters, & for having this opportunity to partner with her for my career. Happy tears as a dream becomes reality 🥹

Finalizing plans for next month's writing retreat with my writing group. Can't wait! It's always so refreshing and inspiring ✍️📚.

Another great year @pghbookfest! As a writer, it’s so encouraging to hear from authors about their journeys, and connecting with fellow readers & writers is *the best* 🥰

I miss writing.

My fav part of the Oscars was Emma Stone’s acceptance speech. How cute and relatable is she?! I’m surprised Killers of the Flower Moon didn’t take anything home.

Yesterday I saw a document that my husband reviewed for someone, & his one point of feedback was, “I suggest using an Oxford comma for clarity,” & I fell even more in love with him 😆.

Oof. Just finished writing the low-point chapter of my WIP. It took some time to get in the right headspace. Had to reach deep for this one! We sure do pour a lot into our work, that's for sure.
