A collection of essays about my experiences as a self-published author, including observations about current topics in the industry.

For Once The Ending Comes First When James was brought onto trial for murder, Sarah focused on the story, not on the truth. She was a (foster) mom, after all, and who else but her would fight for her kid? But the problem with balancing on a web of feeble truths and broken lies is just that: it's thin and snaps just as quickly as it was built. Sarah struggles to navigate her life as she plunges into a new relationship with James, a painfully quiet and reserved seventeen year old boy with a bleak past and a firm lock on the door to his future. His mental health battle, fueled through panic attacks and nightmares, adds an additional strain to their fragile relationship and forces Sarah to question how much she really knows what on February 13th, the night James' father had committed suicide. When she begins to suspect that there is more to the death of James' father than what is written on the police report, Sarah learns that she needs to conduct her own murder investigation; this time, however, inside her own home with a broken young boy that she is starting to love.

If you're here because you truly enjoy my writing and want to read more of what pours out of my chaotic mind: thank you. Love,

Death is only the beginning... Hey you. Yes...I'm talking to you! Stop wasting your time looking at endless books and focus your attention solely on mine. "Why?" I hear you ask. My answer is simple. If I haven't already grabbed you enough with my attitude, then it's because my story is one hell of a tale. For most teenage girls, a normal existence might include going shopping, scrolling through social media and reading an unhealthy number of novels. Not for me. Unfortunately, one glaringly obvious fact separates me from every other female on this planet. What is this fact? Well, you're going to have to read this novel to find out. Don't say I didn't warn you!

(Sorry for any grammar errors, I tend to write like how I read and talk, no pauses. And get a little too detailed here and there. Working on improving, thank you for taking the time to read my work, have a wonderfully chaotic and good day.) *Note-Any Images used I don't own the co-rights to, the image belongs to the original owners. I grabbed them from Pinterest so y'all could have a visual of how I see the characters, so I don't know the owners, but hope this helps.* My Goal is to one day make this into a comic/manga. But first wanted to write everything down, since not everyone likes comics/manga.

After losing her job and struggling to support her family, she discovers a mysterious new AI tool that promises to create and publish books in under 6 minutes.

A story about dreams, technology, and how one tool can rewrite destiny.

I graduated in 2012 with a Master of Fine Arts for Writing for Children from Hamline University, where I got to work with folks like Gary Schmidt, Mary Logue, Laura Ruby, Anne Ursu, Swati Avasthi, and Gene Luen Yang, and wrote two books while I was there (technically three), and it was the greatest thing ever for a writer. Are you serious about writing? Well duh, of course you are, you're posting chapters on Wattpad like crazy, and when people talk to you, they catch you in the middle of a paragraph and then they wonder why you're grumpy while you're like DUDE I AM TRYING TO WRITE THIS SCENE. Well, this is my scattershot series of little writing helpful things. (This basically means that I'm racing into this Wattpad book with my eyes shut and actually don't know where I'm starting because the thought of starting is freaking me out as usual, BUT once I get started on this thing I'll be fine.) I'll talk about things that have helped me as a writer -- I don't call 'em rules but suggestions. I'll give you some writing exercises to try for fun. I'll give you writing stuff that the folks at Hamline taught me at the MFA workshops. I'll give you beginner writer stuff and I'll give you advanced writer stuff and wrap it in a big writerly ball. And I'll make it fun. No use in being boring, I mean seriously. And if you have a topic you want me to cover, let me know and I'll cover it for you.

You are about to read the prologue of Out of the Red - if you like what you read click the link to buy a copy of the book from amazon UK When Anna Skye discovered that there are men around who will pay an attractive woman generously for the privilege of giving her a good spanking, belting, slippering, thrashing, paddling or caning, she realised - as a mature, intelligent and sexually active woman who had already discovered the erotic thrill of being spanked - that she had found the perfect way to repay the GBP20,000 debt her late husband had left her. This is Anna's erotic, moving and often very funny account of her life before and after becoming a 'spankee', including her desperate attempts to have a child and the roller-coaster ride of internet dating. A true story of love and sex, pain and pleasure, anger and forgiveness. "One evening I noticed my bottom in the mirror. It was a pretty good size and shape. I fetched a slipper from the bedroom and gave myself a few whacks with it. Pah! That was nothing. I wondered if I could find a way of getting spanked for money..."

A collection of poems that have been written by myself, reflecting my thoughts and feelings as well as my experiences and those of who I am close to.
