When I’m two months out from finishing a manuscript I’ve been working on for two years

Only 15K left to finish this draft! One more draft to write after this and then I *think* this ms might be ready for readers.

@MichelleKrys @Bradford_Agents Congrats!!!

Thrilled to announce that I'm now represented by Laura Bradford at @Bradford_Agents! Can't wait to share the exciting new project we've been working on together 📚😀

My daughter asked if I’d go with her to see Barbie, and wow, that movie is an absolute delight.

Finally, finally, finally making progress with this manuscript. Sure, I'll probably need another draft or two after this rewrite, but...trust the process?

@Bibi_Lewis @CarissaNasyra @BrambleRomance I recently read both of these (and loved them). Congrats to all!

Absolutely thrilled to have helped the outstanding @CarissaNasyra find a wonderful print partner in @BrambleRomance. Coming to your shelves December 5th!! 🩸🐍⚔️

@TifMarcelo Happy Birthday!

To be fair, I’ve working 50+ hr weeks and don’t have the energy to write after work. I do know I’ll finish this draft (I’ll carve out time on weekends). But still.

Today I’m trying to tell myself it’s okay I’ve only written 10K of this WiP. It helps that I do love this draft so far and I’m excited about the characters. But usually I’m faster at drafting.

@TifMarcelo Wait, what? How is this possible?

A long walk and a writing session was the exact evening I needed.

Just devastating.

I follow a lot of horse and real estate groups on FB, and today I mistakenly read house as horse and almost responded “oh, yeah, you can definitely find a horse for 300K.” (Yes, people who are not me do spend that much and more on a horse)

@TifMarcelo Congrats!!! ❤️

Starting to write again (even if it’s to see if a new idea will work) feels like a small win and I’ll take it.

Someone told me it’s only Wednesday and I don’t believe them.

Sometimes I wonder what people in my zoom meetings would think if I suddenly started wearing my vintage Jessica McClintock dresses to work.

This very good boy wishes everyone a wonderful holiday season.

@TifMarcelo @RachMBrooks @bookendslit Congrats!!!

Introducing Romeo’s Tragedy. He was not the fastest racehorse, but we are hoping he’ll enjoy his new career as a hunter for my teen and a sometimes trail horse for me.
