I'm editing one book, I've started writing another, and I have plans for the one after that.

But, hold on, I'm just gonna jot down these opening paragraphs to yet another story that my brain has started writing without my permission...

Maybe you'd like to see the amazing cover for WORLD'S OKAYEST ORACLE (RELUCTANTLY) SEEKS DEMON, my book about an infamously underpowered oracle saving the world alongside the uptight demon who helped ruin her life 20 years ago?

I LOVE this idea. Some of my books' theme songs:

You, Me, & the Conspiracy - "House of the Rising Sun," Lauren O'Connell
Bold Moves - "Let You Break My Heart Again," Laufey
Bad Reputation - "Cut to the Feeling," Carly Rae Jepsen
Funny Guy - "Steamroller," Phoebe Bridgers
I am so glad to hear I am not the only writer who has opening tv show credits playing in their brain as they write. Here are the theme songs for my other books:

It's a screwball polyamorous monster-bonking sci-fi ghost story romantic comedy.
Whoops. I told myself that my sexy Igor book needed to stay under 30k words (because it's a sequel to a 27k novella). I have a draft now, and it is 35k. And my books always get a lot longer in editing.

But at least it's weird. Seriously, I cannot stress enough how weird this book is going to be.

Jotted down this dialog idea for a part of my book that I haven't gotten to yet. Thought it looked nice without context.

The biggest difference between a straight book and a sapphic book is that when straight books say beautiful, they mean super model pretty

But when Sapphics say beautiful they mean in a vital, visceral, bloody kind of greusome way.

And I think that's lovely 😌

Puttering along on my Igor book.

I was feeling extra grumpy earlier today. Turns out all I needed was to spend a few hours working on a three-way bondage scene about some weirdos that are bad at expressing romantic feelings.

Oh, technically four-way if you count the ghost.

I'm currently working on a sequel to my Sexy Frankenstein book "The Mad Scientist & Her Monster," and it'll be in Igor's POV.

If you've met Shelley Igor (read my books!), you'll know that her voice is A Lot. It's not easy to reign her in, but it IS an entertaining struggle.

This sounds so fun. Honestly, it's the first non-sequel new release that I put on my TBR in I can't remember how long.
