A girl struggling with mental health, haunted by her dead mother, hunted by a man stalking her through mirrors. She fights homicide charges while dodging creatures of human and grotesque nature. Is it real or a figment of a disturbing imagination?

I figured as a writer of horror that sales would be up this month, but I'm at a flat 0. Where are the horror lovers that don't mind a strong bisexual female MC that values friendship based in modern time with a touch of fantasy?

It's finally happening... AI is steadily replacing the rich, and I'm here for it. Maybe we can start seeing some regulations now that it's negatively impacting important people??

I'm not even done proofing my latest book or finished my current trilogy, yet I feel the need to start a new story.

Four rejection letters so far, all were positive, so that's somewhat comforting.

Is it morally wrong to use killers such as Ed Gein in the literary and media world?

I'm querying a book written about 4 years ago, and now I'm almost done with my next book, which is totally unrelated. Should I query different agents for this one or wait until I find one for the first one and see if they are interested in representing both?

Received my first query rejection. I never realized an agent could like your book, yet not feel as though they are the best representation. I love this level of honesty. 💜

‘Conundrum,’ written by Jan Morris in 1972 remains for many, the timeless and definitive statement on Transgender awakening.

A remarkable achievement, given that she was born unable to write anything at all. #NowReading #BookSky

Are books becoming more predictable, or am I just getting better at predicting? 🤔

I feel like I have fallen in the trap of buying several popular Booktok books then realize I have no intention of actually reading the book. Maybe I just wanted to just have it on my bookshelf as a souvenir. #books #booksky #blackbooksky #reading #bookclub #bookstagram #author
