Oh, does someone have to leave the house today? Here's how I feel about that.

Hey Jeni I was wondering if you can go more in-depth on what you are looking for in the horror space. Thank you!

I just had my first experience of a book I beta read actually getting an offer of rep. Pretty cool! Can't wait to see the changes that go into the final product.

Late today 🥱

This lady here decided to fuck with Ru'ul, one of the biggest badasses in Atalantis. She's finding out that was a mistake 😂

From my upcoming book, THE GODS OF ATALANTIS, now looking for ARC readers! docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Good morning!!! For today's #WIPSnips we've got a bit more Bunibo before we see Frogbo again... but it's really fun to write from her perspective!
Don't worry: Bunibo's being ultra-careful about this whole scary vortex thing. 🐰📦

No. Even if Lexi offered, Damien could never take it. Could he? How could he be sure he’d stop, before causing irreversible harm? Could he trust himself?  
To not lose control again?
It had taken far too much effort for him to control himself on the ship. That was failure enough itself. He’d need to better prepare if he dared return to New Atlantis. 
What was the point of even pursuing such a… bond? Damien knew too well how friendships with humans always ended; loss, pain, and being alone. 
With a tinge of something that he refused to name for fear of longing for it, Damien hoped that Lexi would somehow build the new home, connections, and “found-family” that they clearly wanted. Or at the least, he hoped Lexi would take care of themself.  
Yes, Damien was very much looking forward to being home. 
While no sunlight penetrated the ship’s walls, he could still feel the sunrise, the sun’s oppressive presence at the horizon. Lulling him to sleep, as it did every day. Almost impossible to fight. He closed his eyes, his thoughts swirling until he found transient peace. 
But little did Damien know that his house-sitter had brought an unexpected guest. Another being in need of healing. 
One who, like Damien, needed friends more than they realized. Though Damien would have been the last person to admit it.

Sharing a bit of of my #hopepunk novel for today's #WIPSnips, "pursue."

Damien returns home, after the team fails to evacuate a planet being sucked into a black hole.

The only chapter from Damien’s POV.

Today’s word is pursue, which I has as pursuit.
We had Eve and Michael chasing the villain to his gang’s hideout.

Hey Natasha! I got a horror with some witchcraft and monsters 🙂 but also possession and some religious language with a pastor character🙁. Would that be a no-go. Also, set in the 2000s...is that historical? Also all is dry snark considered your type of humor?

Word of the day is ‘destroy’ which I don’t use so we’re going ✨ vibes ✨

Black text, green background, “destroy” highlighted pink

A smile crosses his features, and it's annoyingly attractive.

"I'm going to wipe that smirk off your face."

He steps up to me, too close, but I don't move back. "Yeah?"

"And wipe the floor with you. And if you think you're going to kiss me by getting closer and closer, you're going to regret that thought."

"I wouldn't dream of touching you, Dark." He raises his hand to my cheek but stops short of making contact. The hairs on my cheek stand up as if drawn to his hand, and a shiver runs down my body. "Not unless you want it."

"That's what you said about staying away." I shift my head slightly away to lower the risk of touching. I meet his eyes, still enchanted by the way the stars in them sparkle in contrast to the darkness behind them. My hand goes to his chest, perhaps to steady myself, and I can feel his heart racing under it. I raise my chin until our lips have almost connected...

And then I shove him back as the guilt twists my gut. "Is that why you erased the messages? To DESTROY your competition?"

"God damn it, Dark." He swipes the towel off his neck and tosses it onto the floor, like a challenge or a white flag, I can't decide which. I like this Jesse, the unguarded one, but I can't let my guard down either. "Stop acting like I killed him."

Jesse erased Ace’s voicemails, all Evie had left of him. She’s determined not to forgive him for it

No matter how hot he is

Good morning! Getting back in the swing of things today as we're back to #WIPSnips, fleshing out the front-half of Frogbo!
Bunibo is a mite bit worried about that giant vortex that's been consuming everything. Uh-oh... 🌌🐰💦

March 5th – destroy

Fox’s half-brother D’arryd is not exactly pleased she is around.

Don’t worry, he has some plans to remedy the problem.

I hope this is purple enough to trigger the would-be critics out there.
