Some of you may be either pleased or horrified to find that A Thousand Years of Frost is over 100 chapters long. :)
I’ve finished pastry school and am officially a French-trained pastry chef. 👩🏼🍳🥐

The Stone House in National Battlefield Park. It is especially pretty when it snows. ❄️
Meet the Brothers Birse, an elite team of riders led by the dragonhead supreme, Khrysaor Bronimir. #booksky
The turtle doves (mourning doves) often like to watch me while I write. I think they know I’m using them as inspiration. #booksky
Glossary art for AN ANTHEM OF SUNS. Also, book 2, A THOUSAND YEARS OF FROST will come out this December.🩵
I have a character with lavender eyes and shell pink hair reaching the floor. It’s strung with strands of pearls, and she has pet rose finches that flutter around to help her get dressed in the morning. P.S. This is Khalkassia, and she almost exclusively wears white wedding gowns. THIS IS WOMAN.
Probably some of my favorite past recipes and food aesthetics.
This is the prettiest thing I’ve seen today and I thought you should see it too.
Massive childhood inspirations for my work as an adult. What books or movies inspired you to create or laid the foundation for new ideas? #booksky
A coworker asked me what kind of movies I like. Naturally I forgot every movie ever created. My hesitation prompted them to ask if I could name any movie I’d ever watched in my entire life & all I could come up with was a 90’s film about kids who hold a criminal hostage in their treehouse.
