- I got to play Rebel princess at work! youtu.be/grFDOndqq8g?...
- Trying something a little different today, at 8am PST instead of streaming Coffee & Crime (which has been a weird struggle), I'll be on chat during the premiere while I get other work done. youtu.be/w8PPaPl5BMk
- I did it myself using canva, so I'm behind on this trend, but here's me as an action figure! Complete with debut book, pen, Calcifer, a grimoire, a full afternoon tea tray and tea cup.
- Last month, I got to speak with @jpennerauthor.bsky.social about her release A Fellowship of Bakers & Baking, and I wanted to share the more or less uncut footage from that event (I did try my best to enhance the audio). youtu.be/15m9alsxG4I?...

- 28,523 people have added The Hearth Witch's Guide to Magic and Murder to their TBR... I have no idea (knowing my own growing TBR list) when and if those folks will ever get to read it, but the sentiment that they WANT to gave me the pep in my step I was needing as we approach May.
- “Admiting the problem is the first step.” Which, you would think, communicates rather clearly, that there are other steps that should follow that…

- It’s Earth Day, and this takes place in an AU Solarpunk London with a secret magic society
- The Hearth Witch’s Guide to Magic and Murder releases this October! Preorders are important because they count toward that first week of sales. You can also request a copy through your library and that also counts-but is free for you! BookShop: srcbks.com/3QHn6eB BAM: srcbks.com/4bmrt8t
- Today is my birthday! As silly as it sounds, it would mean so much to me if you preordered my cozy modern fantasy inpired by Sherlock Holmes. Preorders are important because they count toward that first week of sales. B&N: srcbks.com/4budvkP
- Angelique and I are on a tighter budget lately. Still, somehow, for my birthday this woman located a prop liquidation where there was a warehouse of free books (half fake). We scavenged for 3 hours and in addition to 27 books, I found slides with scans from the Book of Kells!
- Imagine smoking a cigar and drinking on a yacht while women are in fear and crying for their lives as a direct result of your actions… and not realizing you’re a super villain.
- Since the algorithm may not have shown you this yet, my book is available for preorder. You can order it through your favorite local store, request it through your library or use one of these links: B&N: srcbks.com/4budvkP BookShop: srcbks.com/3QHn6eB BAM: srcbks.com/4bmrt8t

- Reposted by Kiri CallaghanI am sorry to say it, but this is probably one of the most important things you can repost today.

- For my book goblins, if you are interested in requesting ARCs of The Hearth Witch’s Guide to Magic and Murder, my publisher just launched their Fall Influencer sign up: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...
- If you rent something digitally, I feel like if there is a buy option, you should be able to purchase it (with the rental fee discounted off it) within the rental return window. Ex. If I rent a film for $4, if I decide after I want to buy it within 48hrs, I get $4 off that purchase?
- I feel like I would make an excellent eccentric millionaire who leaves puzzles for prizes for their friends/heirs. I consistently put things in safe places--so safe that even i cannot divine where they might be.
- Here are a couple of ways that give me a hand to get the word out about my upcoming debut that are FREE! 🧵 1. Request The Hearth Witch's Guide to Magic and Murder through your local library!
- My publisher is giving away 15 copies of The Hearth Witch's Guide to Magic and Murder (Available October 7th) to US Readers! You still have 24 days to enter! srcbks.com/43k3YuM
- “He made us sign an NDA. He’s not famous, I ran his plates.” -OH in LA
- Normally I post a link to my newsletter here but this time around it had a small exclusive giveaway, so I can't post that. But I CAN tell you we have a GoodReads giveaway for US readers, and you should definitely add the book to your "Want to Read" shelf. #booksky srcbks.com/43k3YuM

- Who will be at WonderCon on Friday? What about the AWP Conference and Book Fair on Saturday? Wanna meet in meat space?
- …I may have put too much glitter in my beverage.
- This is Frodo. Frodo is looking for a new home to be a solo cat, where he is both happiest, and is safest due to the ease of transmission of Feline Leukemia. My friend has made the very difficult decision to help him find a new family for both his happiness and the safety of her other two cats.

- A life without pain is impossible, but a life without cheese? Unbearable. - The quote my lactose-intolerant dumbass will inevitably be known for despite being an author.
- I got breakfast in bed! Angelique and I try to celebrate every 23rd of the month like an anniversary (or around it if it’s not possible), and while due to scheduling conflicts we are doing separate things tonight, she wanted to do something kind. My heart is full and I am ready to tackle the day!
- I am honestly floored a brand named TROJAN successfully sold condoms.
- Reposted by Kiri CallaghanThere’s a great interview with Nick Park about Wallace And Gromit in last month’s Empire, and this bit in particular stood out. It sums up what artists have been trying to say about AI. The mistakes and the learning aren’t things to be bypassed, but a vital part of the process 🤟
- Very happy with my sample design. Dropping a link in one week, as well as some upcoming Hemlock Saga news. Let’s solve some magical murders together. #Booksky
- My heart breaks a little every time I see someone say “that kind of make-up” or “that color” is not for adults. My poor friend, when did you let them convince you grew out of joy?
- Research for fiction writing requires confirming with more than one source of information. Especially when it’s about a field where you may not have experience. This (hopefully) prevents things like a character consuming a plant as an antidote
- I love the North Hollywood Arts District so much—but so many wonderful places are being priced out. I’m still not over The Federal closing
