Friendly reminder about TikTok:

Remember when I said I was going to find new ways to interact with readers? The experiment begins next Monday at noon EST! I mean... you don't want to watch the inauguration, right?

Do you love romance and genre fiction? You might like my duology about two teens surviving the apocalypse, falling in love, trying to survive, and figuring out how to stay in love with the new world threatening to change who they are. Buy them wherever you buy books!

So now that Meta said they will allow targeted hate towards the LGBTQ+ community (see pic of their new content moderation policy) I’ll be copy pasting my Threads here for a few days… if you saw it before, pretend it’s new! ☺️

You know what? Buy All That’s Left in the World wherever you buy books 🙃
