Happy Black History Month!! I believe you should be reading books by Black authors always, however if you don't know where to start here are some recs. I focused on the genres I know the best so please know this is not at all everything and Google is your friend if you're looking for something specific. Happy reading! We're one strike ✊🏾 Visit 5calls.org to call your reps and standwithminnesota.com to donate. The @publishingforminnesota auction is also ongoing. Visit www.32auctions.com/publishingforMN to check out the items up for auction. I've donated signed copies of both of my books. Solidarity today, always, and forever β™₯️ Hello friends! If you’re looking for a way to help those in Minnesota @publishingforminnesota is hosting an auction that will start tomorrow (Jan. 29) and run through Friday. I’ve donated signed and personalized copies of both of my books. I’ll drop the link to the auction in my stories. Big thanks to the organizers for putting this together β™₯️ GIVEAWAY IS CLOSED I'm so excited to share I'll be doing a reading of SPARKS FLY at @barlouisenyc's Singles Night on Feb. 3! Copies of SPARKS FLY will be available to purchase at the event and of course I'd be happy to sign πŸ₯° Grab your ticket at my l!nk in bio! Happy holidays friends! I'll be logging off to give myself a much needed social media break and to hopefully finish this draft I've been working on since the dawn of time πŸ™ƒ Before I go I wanted to thank you all for supporting both of my debuts this year. I can't wait to tell you all about book 3 in the new year! Spoiler alert: it's sapphic 🩷 See you in 2026! While I made up some places for SPARKS FLY, a number of them are real locations I frequent and have fond memories of (or very vague memories depending on how many drinks were had). Check them out and if you stop by let them know I sent you πŸ˜‰ In April 2022, I quit my job when I learned I was being underpaid. I had nothing lined up and didn't know what was next for my career. Three years later, I've published two books and got and a new job. It was the best decision I've ever made 😌 I'm late to the party on this but wanted to meet my reading goal for the year before I officially wrapped. I'm sure I'll read more books before the end of the year but I also plan to log off for the holidays so doing this now. πŸ’œ
