Alright y'all. I'm gonna be so real with you...
          	
          	I put a brief hiatus on Flower while my brain explored a new story. The characters were rattling around like dice in my head, and I had to get them out on paper.
          	
          	So, may I present to you a new tale. One with crime and passion, that takes place in the fictional city of Portsmouth, Virginia.
          	
          	It is called Little Bird.
          	
          	First chapter up for your pleasure now. I am so excited to take you on this journey, if you will have me. And Flower will be returned to once these two specific characters stop yelling at me in my brain.
          	
          	Love you all!

hehehe. you think I've been dormant all this time? you think I abandoned this account? think again my dear little internet friends...
          
          new book coming soon. here is a wee excerpt to tease you. love you all and thank you for stickin around.
          
          
          
          
          "Naomi," he sings. I dryly swallow, feeling a warmth in my chest, my stomach, between my legs. My whole body is on fire. I tip my head back and his lips graze across my earlobe. His baggy shirt falls and lays delicately against my chest. I want to scream.
          
          "What?" I finally whisper, a begging inflection. He smiles again. I feel it, I hear his breath right up against me like it's inside my own head.
          
          "Do you want me to kiss you?"

just finished oh anna
          
          that book was so beautifully written. you’re so gifted; you were born to write. you’re so smart it’s unbelievable. it’s in my top 3 best ever books (and it’s not the third).
          
          don’t ever stop writing; no matter what anyone tells you, you have a beautiful way with words and that book has impacted me in the best way. 
          
          love you <3

Yesterday oh, anna hit 100k. I'm gonna cry :,)
          
          I'm humbled this story resonates with so many of you. I love Quinn, Harry, Emma, Mitch, and Sarah so dearly. (I even love Wes in a twisted lil way). 
          
          These characters got me through a break up and a global pandemic. It's partly because of Quinn that I had the courage to end the most toxic relationship I've ever been in. I will FOREVER be grateful for this story and it's impact on me.
          
          But I would never have finished it if it weren't for you lovely readers and followers. 
          
          Whenever I felt stuck with writer's block, it was your love of the story that kept me going. OUR story. Thank you for taking this journey with me. I love you all :,)
          
          I'm not going to write a sequel (as much as I miss writing Quinn). I love the way the book ended and I don't want to disturb that. Besides...
          
          I'm starting a new journey. It's a darker story, but this new team of characters is already teaching me so much. If you'll have me, I'd like to invite you to join us. In "Flower"

We're almost at 100k on oh, anna :,) you guys are WILD. 
          
          If you finish that book and want another one, I just started "Flower". It's about an assassin and a florist falling in love. It's a dark harry au. It's verryyy good.
          
          Love you all <3
