RITA ® Award-Winning Author of Fantasy Romance
//I’m suggesting creators reframe our expectations for success and the sense of urgency to *make* things happen – instead we can bide our time while we continue to create and let the world come to us.
//Why I think this minor celebrity cis het white guy getting a Romantasy book deal is actually a good thing – certainly not a new thing. Also successful furniture shopping and a good long weekend for me!
//An annoying tussle with Findaway Voices flagging my very human narrator as digital for STRANGE FAMILIAR, with no recourse to object. It is live on Audible and Kobo though! Also, I may be reversing my insistence on writing with discipline and instead embracing the creative urge and writing what you want to!
//Thoughts on taste, classism, wealth and how some books and authors are elevated by the social elite, deliberately creating an atmosphere of exclusivity. Also on why some books are phenoms and what is art.
//My very exciting news on Never the Roses: a starred Library Journal review! Also, about the latest news around “AI” and some writers using it to generate books. My thoughts on art, creativity – and what we can do to “prove” we’re not among them.
//I’m back from travels and writing hiatus, and mulling what it feels like to have not written anything in all this time, what it means to aggressively refill the well, and becoming familiar with the odd sensation of feeling less stressed.
//My office rehab is done and I am THRILLED! I’ve discovered my intuition led me to solidify this aspect of my creative life while on hiatus. Also: Why We Write. Musings on having a creative career and balancing love and business.
