- Replying to @a_miller2I had this exact conversation as a teenager with my pediatrician, who insisted that I should STILL get on birth control because "you never know" 🙃
- I’m beyond excited to announce: I’m going to be a PUBLISHED AUTHOR! Thrilled to work with Katy Nishimoto at Dial on my queer Christmas rom-com, FALLING LIKE SNOW. Huge thanks to my agent, Patrice Caldwell (@whimsicallyours), for finding the perfect home for my book. (1/2)
- Beyond excited that I get to announce that I'm now represented by @whimsicallyours over at @newleafliterary! Patrice's enthusiasm for my book has been inspiring, and I can't wait to work with her to bring my queer holiday romcom to the world ♥️❄️
- I was gearing up to propose to my partner today as we were about to cross a lovely covered bridge and just as we entered they whipped out a snack pack of cabot sharp cheddar. (I still asked later. They said yes!)
- ✨ NEW PEN NAME ✨ this is the first of a few exciting announcements I get to make in the coming weeks!! stay tuned 😎
- Just got a rejection on a full that is leaving me... really inspired??? The feedback was great and immediately inspired a whole bunch of ideas.
