Fall is in full swing, can you believe it?! Summer was amazing. I’ll have to post photos of STAR WARS LAND because that was the highlight of my year. Excited to share my travel inspirations soon. This is my favorite time of year, can you tell?
Currently reading: Wheel of Time, Book 3: The Dragon Reborn.
Currently watching Mean Girls. read: Tina Fey is a national treasure
I’ve listened to the album “WHEN WE ALL FALL ASLEEP, WHERE DO WE GO?” about a zillion times
Billie Eilish just gets it. authentic. rebellious.
This entire album is GOLD.
This music video might be my favorite (for now) & You Should See Me in a Crown is a major mood for my WIP.
This Salvador Dalí painting was one of the inspirations for my current book title.
Duality. Multiple perspectives. Opposing silhouettes. Mind & body. Death & life.
Dance was an important theme throughout many of Dalí’s works (from what I’ve read). And for me, dance has and always will influence my writing. Whether I’m watching a beautiful ballet performance or just out with a group of friends, dance brings me joy.
I’m fascinated when I read the origin behind a book’s title. And even though my title may change, this painting continues to guide my overall vision.

Okay so this is a difficult question. BUT I think there’s a book out there for everyone, you just have to find it. I’m a big fantasy reader but appreciate the classics and contemporary as well.
I recommend: Anything by Brandon Sanderson (love the Cosmere!), An Ember in the Ashes Series by Sabaa Tahir, Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo, Arc of a Scythe Series by Neal Shusterman, the Throne of Glass series by Sarah J. Maas, the Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern, Bossypants by Tina Fey, Behind Closed Doors by B. A. Paris, We Were Liars by e. lockhart, and so so much more!
