Confessions of a soon to be published debut author. Today I wore an Among Us t-shirt because the imposter syndrome was real. I turned it into a joke. Proud of myself 🤣

Today I got to see the finished art work for my front cover. It's gorgeous! Don't mind me. Just fangirling over here in a corner.

I'm convinced illustrators & digital artists are wizards. My request list was lengthy, & it turned out exactly as I'd hoped.

Can’t stop thinking about Into the Sunken City by Dinesh Thiru, so I had to draw a scene. Very out of my comfort zone, but I had fun!

Oh look. Someone put my book in a stack of other books. I always wanted that to happen. The #2024debut class has been so awesome and so supportive. Yall find and read their books — especially Crystal J Bell’s The Lamplighter. I’m not sure she’s on here yet.
