#1stLinePit The first event I ever planned was my own wedding. It was a beautiful outdoor spot, in the early afternoon. The harsh overhead sun was blocked perfectly by the plastic slideβ€”wait. I may have forgotten a key detail. I married Aspen Carter in Kindergarten. #WIP #NA

COVER REVEALπŸ₯³πŸš¨ I can't wait to share this story you guys!! Aspen and Mia have been such a delight to write. Keep an eye out for information on the official release date, e-ARC signups, and, eventually, pre-orders!

COVER REVEAL TOMORROW!🚨 🚨 Everybody stay calm!! Today's reveal shows Aspen's camera, as well as the woven bracelets both characters are wearing! Aspen Carter is a nature photographer, the camera hanging from his shoulder is a nod to his work πŸ“· πŸͺΆ

2 dayyyyys! The map in Mia's hand is a nod to her love of planning and desire to have everything mapped out in life, as well as a direct reference to a chapter in the book. The birds in the sky are, well, a reference to the titleπŸ˜‚

3 days until the full reveal! I can't wait! Mia and Aspen both have fairly particular taste in shoes. Because he's always out in nature, Aspen stays in his worn out Columbia hiking boots. On the other hand, Mia has a converse buying habit, hoarding them in different colors!
54
It's happening!!🚨 This valentine's day, I'll be posting a cover reveal for Love is for the Birds, keep an eye out πŸ‘€ In the days leading up, I'll share a few glimpses and a little bit about some of the easter eggs in the cover art!πŸ₯³

A pacing tip I always wish I could yell at my past self while shaking them vigorouslyβ€”Skip the getting there. Skip the getting ready. Skip the walking to and waking up for. Write the thing and only the thing!

What they don't tell you about publishing a book is the intense desire to interview everyone who has ever read it and find out what they thoughtπŸ˜…

Y'all don't understand, Pheobe and Will are so serious to me like that's my ship

Writing can be taught. It can be learned. It's not some special club where someone gets to decide who's allowed in.
