My anxiety is so much better since I started writing fiction, because instead of fixating on real things, I escape into my characters world.
Downside: This weekend I completely missed Fathers Day because my brain was gone ... 🥴

This is how “I’ll just write this email to a friend” turned into a 7000 word blog post and outline for a full length indie book. And I *can’t stop thinking about it*
In typical ADHD fashion, I’m dealing with a project that has become overwhelming by adding even more work to the project, which then makes the overall project more interesting to my brain.
Sounds wild, but hey, ADHD be wild.

Today was an expensive day, thanks to r/RomanceBooks ... teddit.net/r/RomanceBooks/co…
Sometimes I think, “don’t worry, the grownups will come up with a great solution!”
And then the sinking realization hits: “Oh shit, we ARE the grownups.” 😬

What does my kid want to be when he grows up?
A red rainbow 🌈
His preschool teacher said she asked him 3x over a few hours to be sure, he was adamant about it.
GUYS I WANNA BE A RED RAINBOW TOO

LOVED this gender swapped “How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days” retelling from @authorandiej. A clever conflict of relationship vs career, and the characters chemistry was 🌶 🌶🌶

This morning I woke up alone with someone else’s gum in my hair. My kids don’t chew gum.

Is anyone sick of the never-ending pressure to make more, do more, and be more? To grow and evolve and get better every single day? To always try to be the best at everything? And to document your entire life’s journey on social media for the world to see?
Because I am. 🤗

Just finished “Rosaline Palmer Takes the Cake” by @quicunquevult ... I didn’t know I needed a British Bake-off romance, but I loved every minute. Perfect development, memorable characters, and I now can casually drop “sesquipedalian” in a conversation. Not to mention ...

Finally reading Scoundrel of my Heart after it made the @FatedMates Best of 2021, and the plot is just as much of a wild rollercoaster as @sarahmaclean promised. Way more jaw-dropping plot twists than I expect from a historical. And damn can Lorraine Heath write a steamy scene!

The fun thing about ADHD is that I forget about Twitter for weeks and then I log on and fall into complete time blindness for 2+ hours to catch up.

Doing important work in the world, bringing SEO to entrepreneurs to decrease dependence on social media AND romance recommendations to smash the damn patriarchy.
I just saw an SEO presentation from @megcasebolt and my biggest takeaway is new romance books to add to my TBR.

Every time I read a #RomanceBooks shower sex scene, I get totally preoccupied with think about how many shower-related injuries there are every year and hope my characters don’t slip & hit their heads.
Sometimes when I see marketing images of bros with their fancy cars, I consider a photo shoot with my minivan.
(To be fair, it does have heated leather seats. #fancyAF)

Absolutely adored this M/M Cold War romance between an FBI agent & KGB operative by @AsterGlenn! Perfect execution of rivals-to-lovers, road trip + forced proximity tropes.
My dog has a feeder ball. He waits for the kids to take pity on him and feed him, piece by piece.
Cant tell if it’s superior politeness, learned helplessness, or extreme laziness.
