Hopefully not too gauche to post that I'm looking for ARC readers for my queer Canadian new adult romance. booksprout.co/reviewer/rev... #queer #newadultromance #arcreader #cozyromance #newadultfiction

When I moved to AB, my friends said they were glad I left so they didn't have to pretend to like me anymore. They only put up with me bc I had more money. In HS, a girl became a close friend just to get close to my BF (who she was stalking). Anyway, here's a rough ref for my MC in Blue Door Café.

I think I got bored halfway through and gave up. Sometimes that happens. I'm allergic to chicken and ate some tonight and I'm suffering for it. #artsky #digitalart #originalcharacter #oc

Like a cat, I would nap for most of the day if I could. Anyway, finished the piece from yesterday. Princess Matilde from a novel I'm working on. #digitalart #art #oc

The trouble with long weekends is that I very quickly revert back to my most natural sleep schedule, which is 1am to 9am, and it's very hard to get back to my work schedule. Anyway, here's the start of working on character portraits for another book I'm working on.

I've seen lots of folks saying once the tariffs have ended prices will go back down, but that's not true. Once companies see they can charge more and people will still buy, that's just the price now.

The wisdom I am using today to keep myself emotionally balanced: Part of what makes the world beautiful is the highs and lows. Today, I am suffering. But tomorrow, I get to have ice cream. #survive #whenlifegivesyoulemonsmakesorbet

All I do is talk about my book and I think that's ok! A Chance To Be Happy is a coming of age novel about a girl who is forced to move across country to a small town to live with her estranged father. It deals with themes of teenage angst, mental illness, and self-love. #booksky #canadian

I know Wattpad is a controversial topic amongst authors, but I've found it helpful for getting a little bit of buzz about my writing. I've had a couple people reach out to me on other platforms to say they'd read the first few chapters of my book there and it made them want to buy the physical book

Seeing reviews starting to come up for my novel is really nice. It's a good feeling. I did it! And I'm well on my way to my next one!

"Elevator pitches" are easy marketing, but once book marketing gets reduced to "elevator pitches", we've quite literally lost the plot. "If you can't pitch your book in one sentence, you don't know what it's about". Okay, fair. BUT if your book can be reduced to 1 sentence, why write a whole book?

Eeeeee!! Got confirmation today that my debut novel, A Chance To Be Happy, will be available at the Kenaston, Polo Park, and St. Vital Indigo books in mid March!! Them staying in stores depends entirely on sales so if you're planning to buy a copy and live in Winnipeg, consider buying in store!

I keep forgetting to advertise my book. Oops. It comes out on Saturday. Yay! It's available at all major book sellers! Not necessarily physically, but definitely to order! #achancetobehappy #indieauthor #newauthor #booksky #ya #canadianfiction

Every time I look at this I want to cry I'm so happy. I never thought I'd actually manage to publish a novel, but I did it!! #debutnovel #booksky #indieauthor #AChanceToBeHappy

Pick a selfie. Turn it B&W. If I ever change from my current author photo, this might be the right one for a new one.

A Chance To Be Happy launches March 1st! Now available for pre-order in most major retailers. linktr.ee/authorkatebu... #booksky #authorsky #yafiction #canadianbooks #debutnovel

I am just always quietly screaming to myself in excitement. A Chance To Be Happy is now available for pre-order in most major book retailers!! linktr.ee/authorkatebu... #booksky #indieauthor #canadianauthor #authorsky #yafiction #newauthor

"It wAs tHE RoMan SAluTe" "The Roman Salute" comes from a gesture Mussolini, a Fascist, chose as a symbol of the "New Rome" he was creating. It has no ties to actual Rome. It's Fascist at its core. Musk is a Fascist at best and a Neo Nazi most likely.

My debut novel, A Chance To Be Happy, releases March 1st! linktr.ee/authorkatebu... #indieauthor #authorsky #booksky #canadianauthor #debutnovel #yafiction

Having sponsored ads in my email inbox that I can't delete feels really disgusting dystopian.

Happy Sunday! I'm looking for ARC readers for my upcoming novel! If you're interested in more info, please see the link below. Thanks so much! forms.gle/YH7qiZTos7f1... #ARC #NewAuthor #booksky

@coralislandgame.bsky.social I seem to have encountered an issue. I wasn't doing anything online. Just had the scene with the goddess where she gives me a stamina fruit. Pressing ESC does nothing. Just a heads up. Sure you're on it.

I've had bluesky for awhile and apparently just never posted or used it. But with the way of the world, I'm scooting away from meta and didn't really use x anyway... Anyway, I'm a cosplayer, artist, larpers, and (recently) published author.
