Em 🐁 is on HIATUS

For the record, I also told him to DO IT, so if you’re at the event and you see a dude dressed in a suit following me and Ali around like a big puppy wearing sunglasses and struggling to maintain a mean-mug, that’s what going on

...don't be surprised if this is a book I write later.

Just had my hottest 30-something grad student offer to follow me around in a full suit and earpiece as my pretend-but-also-real bodyguard at my book release event.

He's Romanian.

Feel free to do what you will with this information.

taking it all in

HEAR ME OUT

If fries in a frosty work...

finally watched Casablanca. wild in this day and age for something to actually live up to the hype

A Fine Line by Penelope Guinn is a delicious feast of a small town romance that pairs well with pulled pork sandwiches, mac n' cheese, fried okra, and sweet tea. It has my vote! @danaripleywrites

@penguinnwrites.bsky.social's A Fine Line captures southern small town life perfectly, and it shows the hope, joy, and dedication people put into building a better future.

And the romance? If you like smart characters, sharp banter, and have a competence kink, this one's for you!

5/5

all I'm saying is...

...would. Maybe? Actually yes. Probably.

My exact reaction:

a monochromatic freehand digital painting of Adam Driver, light shining on the crown of his head and the tips of the waves of his hair as he glances down, gently knitted brow shading lowered eyes, light catching on the crest of his left cheekbone and running down the length of his nose, the soft tangle of his beard further shadowing his upper lip and tucked chin.

happy 1st anniversary to adam's theater workshop blitz in his hometown

You’re doing the lord’s work

you don’t wanna know how long & how many files i went through but i finally found the shot of the “adam driver bar”

adam actually changed the voice animation game with the “adam driver bar” which is now apparently quite popular & well-known

thank you wyatt russell for the most perfect & correct sound byte

ik commenting is hard, but u don't have to write a dissertation- even “this was amazing” or “i loved this” makes writers happy. it feels like some people treat fic writers like untouchable writing machines and don’t realize they’re fellow fans, who likely would love chatting abt their work with u

There they are!

They’re REAL!

I’ve been waiting to show the full wrap until I had a final copy in my hands, but here she is in all her glory:

A LATTE LIKE LOVE with art from @cndcrd.bsky.social on the front - and also on the back. 🥹🩷

(The back art has been my phone lock screen wallpaper for like 10 months now lol)

I just walked 20 lbs of [very valuable] paper into my office lolololol

BIG DAY BECAUSE I JUST GOT SOMETHING ELSE

AO3 comment. Transcribed text: “Hi. So I really love this fic and wanted to reread it last noght while ao3 was down. In the process I found out someone had listed it as a published book on goodreads. It looks like there isn’t an easy way to report listed books as errors, so I thought I’d let you know. Sorry. It’s a sign someone really loved this fic I imagine, but from other authors’ comments when this happened to them I assume it’s also frustrating and violating. Sorry again.”

I love when people enjoy my work but also appreciate this person giving me a heads-up about my fics being on GoodReads, which I do NOT love. There’s something gross about hobbyist work created for fun getting a star rating. No one signed up for that. Even if it’s meant as a compliment, please don’t.

(And yes: there are Easter eggs scattered EVERYWHERE in here 👀🥰)

If you’d like to know what exactly’s going on, well…

You’ll just have to read it.

There are only two weeks left to wait. 💕☕️

In the meantime, these sweethearts are waiting for you.

A cropped version of this scene from the epilogue of A LATTE LIKE LOVE will be one of my art prints available at my in person release event party with Ali Hazelwood at @bookpeople.com on March 20th.

Thank you, Sal! 😭🩷

listen i love ao3 as much as the next guy but ive seen people quit fic writing over the past few years because people comment and engage with authors way less, and then everyone still freaks out when ao3 goes down- if a fic is irreplaceable to u, let the author know!

Don't mind me I'm just figuring out new ways to colour stuff over on Patreon.

"Don't ever make me do that again," he pleads in his exhaustion, finally daring to break his vow and touch her.
