TW: pet loss, pregnancy loss, general death and emo vibes, possible existential crisis, fragile mental health. Seriously, if you can’t stand the heat, then get the f*** out of my kitchen. My darling boy is gone. I miss his floppy ears, his tigereye coat, his jack-o-lantern grin, his little bear paws. Teddy was my heart. The very best. I’m gutted that he was hospitalized while I was just coming out of an egg retrieval. I drove like hell, against doctor recommendations for what you’re supposed to do after undergoing general anesthesia, just to be with him at the end. Cramping and crying and curled up in pain next to him. Just so that he would know I didn’t abandon him and that I loved him and that he absolutely made the world a better place. There’s more to say, but I honestly can’t bear it right now. It’s still too fresh. Many of you have called or texted me. All with the same general question of are you ok. No. I am not really ok. I can’t even fake being ok. Like, why do we always have to present the most put together versions of ourselves? I’m not playing that game today. I want you to see me in all my rage and agony and know that this is what I am now: a woman who has been through the most hellish year, brought so low she wonders if she’ll ever get up again. A woman who most closely resembles a pile of rubble rather than an actual human. Join me on a tour of my hellscape. I have had two pregnancy losses in the past year. The first one was so shocking and happened so fast. I held my belly, feeling so much fear as Jonathan and I rushed through the hospital. That small bubble of hope dwindled inside me. I heard two heartbeats on the ultrasound before sinking under anesthesia. I woke up to one. And then…the unthinkable happened again a few months later. Do you get what I’m putting down? This happened twice. This time there was so much blood. This time the doctors were worried I might die. I went under anesthesia unsure if I’d ever wake up again. 08 Oct 2025

Honestly? Yes—but maybe not how you’d expect. I’m not thinking about what will please the most people. I’m thinking about the one reader who needs to hear it. The one who’s been waiting for the right words to land. That’s who I’m writing for. Because the books that changed me? They felt like they were written just for me. And if my work can make even one person feel that way— That’s more than enough. Do you think about your reader when you write? Would love to know how you approach it. 🤍 23 Jul 2025

Editing gets easier when you know what you’re listening for. Here are 3 questions to keep close when revising your draft: 1️⃣ What am I really trying to say here? 2️⃣ Is the emotion clear—or buried under perfect wording? 3️⃣ Does this sound like me, or like what I think I’m supposed to say? Revising isn’t just about trimming words—it’s about reconnecting with your intention. Save this for your next writing session. 🖊️ 18 Jun 2025

Ever feel like your reading list and your writing don’t match up? Maybe you’re writing something serious but can’t stop reaching for thrillers… or drafting a romance while reading historical nonfiction. That’s not a bad thing—it’s a gift. Reading across genres keeps your voice flexible, your ideas fresh, and your curiosity alive. The contrast between what you consume and what you create can spark connections you never expected. So don’t box yourself in. Let your TBR reflect your moods, your questions, your need to unplug or dive deeper. Your reading life doesn’t have to look like your writing life to be valuable. What’s something you’re reading right now that’s surprising you or shifting your perspective? Drop a title—I’m always curious. 📚👇🏾 11 Jun 2025
