One of the southern things I miss - Cajun boiled peanuts. So I made myself a pot. They are so good, but HOT. My throat burned for two days, lol.

@manuscriptwishlist.bsky.social Amelia is dragging me to the cafeteria, but I balk at the double doors. I refuse to participate in one more brain numbing gossip-fest with her BFF’s. If one person shows me a "cute kitten" meme, I'll tear out every throat in the room. #1stLinePit #YA #Q #C #F

Until she stooped to turn his body over, she'd not been scared. Just angry. Enough was enough. All evening she'd mingled, smiling woodenly at the other guests & downing far too many glasses of champagne while her husband rollicked around and made a fool of himself. And her. #1stLinePit #WIP #A #R #S

WHAT THE RIVER KNOWS X THE GIRL OF FIRE AND THORNS “The sunrise on the worst day of my life was blood-red. Its rays crawled like tenuous fingers over the copper-hued hills of the desert. A falcon glided on puffs of balmy air, with outstretched wings and tucked feet.” #1stLinePit #Q #YA #HF
