Book unboxing video gone wrong. Or right if you’re a ferret. Don’t mind Nyx’s bald leg, she broke her elbow and had to have surgery to fix it.

Legit! #writers #booksky #writingcommunity

All I wanted to do was make the bed, but I have ferrets.

Just went and saw #sinners. One of the best vampire flicks 🧛I’ve seen in a long time. Amazing movie. Amazing acting. Amazing story.

This sums up my feelings about today. #ferrets #art #fluffoff

I have always been drawn to Disney, Studio Ghibli, and Pixar art, but always thought I needed to be more serious in my artistic endeavors. But then I started drawing Kawaii characters and I am having so much fun! Art is art, no matter if it is a portrait or a unicorn hot chocolate.

I took a Kawaii drawing class. I adore the kawaii look, the cute sweet nature of the art. I had so much creating this little dude! I need to add some words and then I'll place him in my Etsy shop! #art

#writing status 😅😅😅

Presenting Sad Bunny. I’m not sure why he’s sad, but that’s how he came when I was sketching.

When the wildest, craziest story idea invades your dreams, and all you want to do is sit and write it. BUT, you’re already working on two other books at once and really can’t add a third into the mix.

Being at Tucson Festival of Books, reminds me that readers love my strange little vampire universe. And that continuing to write in Alexis’s world is not only fun but very much wanted from my readers. So, as Nathan would say, “We’re back, bitches!” This was 100% written as a reminder to myself.

Writers advice: when working with a developmental editor, don’t ask them to leave smiley face emojis in the comments to make you feel happy. You paid the editor to do a job, to help you make your book the best it can be. we’re not your parents, we don’t have to heap on the praise.

I told myself I was done writing in the Alexis Black world. BUT...I guess the gang had other ideas.

It's a tragedy that the GOP senators would rather be reelected than stand up for what they know is right. It's about time we add some term limits and allow another generation of Americans to have some power, since obviously this ass hats refuse to stand up to Trump.

I started a new endeavor to start selling my art a couple of weeks ago. And now I have an Etsy shop!! Right now I’m creating seamless patterns, but soon I’ll be adding clip art, book related stickers, and maybe even some book covers! www.etsy.com/shop/TheVali...

Just did a session on this, so here for the lunchtime crowd who might be #querying. Comps. Comparable texts. The things you put in your query letter to illustrate what your book is &, dare I say, illuminate things a bit and show a hospitable bit of market knowledge. Don't wince: let's get on with it

I’m struggling with my order of operations to get this book ready to query. The OCD part of me really wants to keep going back to make the first half shiny and pretty and perfect. The rational part of me knows I need to move forward and make the rest something less than a garbage heap of words.

Writers advice. Don’t comment on a negative review. Don’t post about a negative review. Don’t pay attention to a negative review. Don’t feed the negative review. Try to forget it exists and move on. They happen. Everyone gets them. Complaining or calling out the reviewer is bad business.

@tomandlorenzo.bsky.social could you please do a rundown on Alan Cummings wardrobe on #thetraitors. I’m dying to hear your opinion. Because I would die for anyone one of his outfits!!

We’re slowly introducing the puppy to the ferrets. He’s more afraid of them than they are of him. And they all get worn out after a morning play session.

Got bingo. I’m not sure it’s a good thing.
