Buffy considering whether the treats are enough to get her out of bed. Same, Buffs, same.

How this Monday finds me

Lucky Spell says you will have a wonderful July. Or else.

No two debut experiences are the same; there’s always things we dreamt of doing that haven’t happened. I’ve been unlucky in some ways, very blessed in others. Whenever I wallow in the things that haven’t happened, I remember that my book exists, and so many of you have sent me pictures 💜

Lucky Spell says you need a side quest

My cat doesn’t loaf. She X-rays.

A reminder: I am now closed to general queries and will remain open to queries from BIPOC authors only until the end of June. I got over 1k queries in just one month of being open to queries! 🤯 You are all incredible!

The face that launched a thousand treats

Our esteemed visitors are here 🥰 I’ve been waiting for them all year

AAAAAAAAA you guys did this, I’m seeing an orange banner for the first time in my life 😭😭😭 you made my stabby sapphics rank No1 I’m losing my mind thank you so much 😭

When you’re waiting for breakfast but also lowkey plotting to take over the world

I was so thrilled to be interviewed by Ashley Hasty on her blog! I yapped about the books I’m reading, about the literary characters I’d love to be friends with (or locked in an elevator with) and about the moment I knew I wanted to be an author. www.hastybooklist.com/blog/author-...

No, you don’t understand, you must worship her. Or else.

My book comes out in the US today. If you spot her, say hi? www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/danai...

No, you don’t understand, my book officially comes out on Tuesday in the US, yet it’s already out in @barnesandnoble.com at their Union Square store, which I think it’s so wild and wonderful especially because my publisher in the US is unionsqandco

Convincing you to read Vile Lady Villains with some of its 5 star reviews… and with some of its not—5-star reviews that I also loved!

Do you feel like you haven’t been judged enough today? Do you yearn for someone to stare at you and make you aware of all your shortcomings even before you get up from bed? Don’t worry, Buffy can fix that.

Nope, he really isn’t smart enough, bless him 🤣 it was this Queen

All hail Indominus, Last of their Name, the Uneaten, basically the only tulip I have left that has not been chomped down by deer. I’ve waited all year to see them bloom and I think they’re pretty swell 😍

So I want to ask you, if you step into a bookstore anywhere in the US and notice my baddies, my Vile Lady Villains, would you be so kind as to snap a picture and send it to me? For reference, in the US they look like this:

Feral forest cat leaves the witchy cottage for the day. Upon feral forest cat’s return, several more feral cats have arrived. They call themselves, Vile Lady Villains. 🖤

Basically if you love Shakespeare, VLV might be for you. If you hate Shakespeare, VLV might also be for you.

Happy Shakespeare Day! VILE LADY VILLAINS is a love letter to the Bard (although occasionally it can read a bit like a hate mail 😅) so here’s all, or almost all, the Shakespeare quotes featured in the book. What’s your favorite?

Ever since I was a little kid I knew I wanted to live with a vicious predator who would hunt me for sport if she feels her breakfast was 5 minutes late. 10/10, zero regrets, go ahead and chomp on my arm if it’s bothering you diva

“What do you mean you haven’t bought Vile Lady Villains yet? Are you aware they’re on sale at both Waterstones and the ‘Zon? Do you mean to displease me?”

Best bonus of getting boxes of author copies from my publisher? She has new beds to claim as her own 🤩

One month until VILE LADY VILLAINS is out in the US 🤯 I can’t believe it’s almost time for my stabby sapphics to make their state-side appearance! Out from Union Square & Co on May 12, and with an exclusive sprayed edges edition from Ink & Edge books 🤩 inkandedgebooks.com/products/vil...

I can’t believe I get to say this but: VILE LADY VILLAINS has officially earned out already!!!! After the first week of sales 🤯
