She served me a cappuccino martini. From
Behind, passed it over my shoulder, smooth as fuck, and I thought, I’m gonna marry this woman, even though she was married to a man. Flipped her like a pancake. 💁♀️ We’ve been together for fifteen years. 🫶
Listen,

community… y’all need to fucking get yer shit together. We are supposed to all be about love. I have been bullied by this community and authors, and it fucking sucks. I dealt with bullying in middle and high school. I AM DONE. LOVE. KINDNESS. Come on. Grow up.
In less than a week, I’ll be releasing my first

novel, Guarding Evelyn. I am so nervous and excited!! This entire process wouldn’t have been as enjoyable without
@MelissaTereze
and I will never forget the support she has shown. ♥️♥️♥️
It’s my birthday today. 43 years old. And damn, the things I’ve learned in my 40’s. YIKES. But the best thing? Enjoying every moment is the only way to live. ♥️ Love you all! Thanks for everything!
Hi there! Exciting things happening here. I quit my job and am going to be a full-time author. EEK! I wrote a blog post about it because I am freaking out. 🙃

Something happened that has SEVERELY depressed me. So much so that I've considered throwing in the towel and leaving this "community". I'm sure it would thrill some if I did that. But then I received this from a reader. If you think your reviews don't mean anything, think again.
Happy Lesbian Visibility Day ♥️ 🏳️🌈 If at 15 someone would have told me that one day I’d love loving women, I would have laughed out loud. Here we are, though and I really fucking love women. 😍
Can I get a Kate Winslet and Kathryn Hahn lesbian love affair story, please? Modern day with like, oh, I don't know, *pfft* sex scenes? Is that too much to ask??
Completely bowled over that The Tapestry of a Heart *AND* Home for the Holidays are finalists for the 2024
@goldencrownls
Goldies. I don't even know how to process this. Just wow.
Congratulations and cheers to every other finalist. 🫶
Hey all! I’m back. This past week has been…ugh… I lost my stepfather in August and his memorial was last Saturday. But we also spread his and my mom’s ashes, which was their wish: to be spread together. It was like losing her all over again. Hug your parents if you can.
One of my dear friends is at the end of a struggle with Iung cancer. Whatever or whoever you believe in, can you send an extra thought up for her? She needs to get home so home hospice can start. Passing in the hospital is just…not what she wants. She’s love personified. 🫶
Happy Friday! I wrote a blog post today because I wanted you all to know that I am COMING OUT...as a self-published author. 😎 And for the love of all that's good in the universe, HAVE THE BEST DAY AVAILABLE TO YOU!
🚨🚨 After a hard fought battle with ACX because apparently a fraud tried to claim Guarding Evelyn, it's finally mine again and I can start the process to turn it into an audiobook. I am so excited! Stay Tuned for updates! ♥️♥️
I am shaking. Being a Lammy Finalist two years in a row is fantastic! Create a Life to Love was insanely fun to write. The characters developed organically and I will love them all for as long as I live. I’m honored. ❤️😃

So, SURPRISE 🎉 she’s early but she’s here. And I am so excited. Go meet Finnley and Emerson. I have a really good feeling you’re going to like them. And Uncle Mark is available to anyone who would like.

I am so excited to show you all the cover for my next book, The Tapestry of a Heart. I absolutely fell head over heels for Finnley and Emerson. I hope you do, as well! It'll be ready for your consumption right before summer. A great beach read, if I do say so myself.
Finding out someone from my verrrrry small hometown left her husband and is now with a woman is similar to how I think I’d feel if I found a golden ticket to Willy Wonka’s. It’s so much fun!
Whelp, I’m fuhreaking out. 100%. Y’all, this has NEVER happened before. Thank you, thank you. ♥️♥️♥️
(You can buy Guarding Evelyn here if you’d like: )

I can't even begin to describe how excited I am about Heather and Grace finally being out in the world. This book has shifted things for me. I hope it does the same for you.

There are moments when I’m sad that I’ve never won an award for the stories I’ve written but then… I have moments like this with my Hanna and I realize things like this are what matter to me. ♥️
This is definitely a highlight to my writing career. Breaking Down Her Walls has been named a Lammy Finalist. I am beyond humbled and honored. And also so excited!

I am BESIDE myself. This is the best news ever. Thank you so much to anyone who voted for Guarding Evelyn. After everything I've been through, and GE has been through, you have NO IDEA how much this means to me. I'm not gonna lie, I'm crying. 🥺🥺🥺
Today is wide-release day for my little bird. The Hummingbird Sanctuary is so near and dear to me. I hope you’ll go pick up a copy. If for no other reason than to experience the beauty of Colorado. Oh, yes, and women loving women. ♥️♥️
HEYOOOO! It’s
#InternationalComingOutDay
. *taps on mic* Listen to me! Not everyone needs to make a grand declaration. Sometimes coming out simply means accepting every part of yourself, even the LGBTQ+ parts. Stay strong and never forget: YOU ARE ENOUGH ♥️
Tonight was AWFUL. My baby Hanna was getting groomed and started displaying seizure-like symptoms. I took her to the vet and thought for sure she wasn’t going to make it. Prognosis? “Old dog vestibular syndrome” and nothing terminal. She was so scared. And I was a HOT MESS 😔
🚨 EVERYONE! STOP! The Tapestry of a Heart audiobook, narrated by the INCREDIBLE
@AbbyCraden
, is OUT NOW! I'm bowled over by the life Abby brought to Finnley and Emerson and the rest of the crew. I'm just... ahh!! SO EXCITED!!!

Um, hi, hello. Just me, popping in to say in nine days, The Hummingbird Sanctuary will be pre-releasing and, besides being NERVOUS, I am just super excited. I hope you all run over and pick it up, if for no other reason than to simply make me happy. 💓
So, this happened overnight and I am seriously in awe of the love Guarding Evelyn has received. For my first foray into self-publishing, I couldn't have asked for a better reception. Thank you all so very much.

Y’all, when my straight friends read my books, then send me long rambling messages about how talented I am, how amazing the books are, I literally can’t explain how happy it makes me.
Anyway, read Home for the Holidays, the straights love it 🥹
🚨🚨BIG NEWS!!!! The Tapestry of a Heart audio files are being proofed!!! AND YOU WILL NEVER GUESS WHO IS NARRATING! (Hint, her name rhymes with BABBY SCRADEN)
If you would have told baby Erin that one day she’d publish a collection of her poetry and she’d be sandwiched on the American Poetry best seller chart between THE FUCKING ILLIAD AND THE FUCKING GREAT GATSBY she would have laughed in your face. LIKE A BIG BELLY LAUGH.
Hello all, just my yearly rant to remind you to TIP YOUR FUCKING SERVERS. If you are in America, of course. But seriously, most servers make next to nothing hourly. They depend on tips. TIP THEM. If you don’t tip, you shouldn’t be going out to eat. Period. Okay, HAPPY HOLIDAYS 🙃
