I am a writer and resident dreamer. Runs on coffee, music, and sarcasm. In short? A weird little nerdball. She/her demi/ace Repped by Jeanne De Vita at Martin Literary!
DH: it’s august…why is the spoopy candy and decor out (at stores)? Me: *shifty eyes as the new welcome mat I ordered arrives*
Staff picture day today. Life’s short. I’ve decided to take inspiration from my literary favorite, Dervish Grady, and age disgracefully.
I can’t remember the last time I messed around with traditional art, but I had some cardstock, a pencil, and a feeling it was time to do a drawing refresher on Finn, will-o-the-whisp trickster in my horror-fantasy WIP. I might color it digitally. Let’s see where the day takes me.
Introducing Riley Sterling, protagonist in my horror-fantasy WIP: recently graduated English major, lover of classic rock, reading, and all things "weird." Stuck working hospitality at her family's orchard until something better crops up.
Is Stoak an experienced ghost hunter? No. Is he knowledgeable in it? Also no. But is he at least passionate about hunting ghosts? ...Look, if it means getting out of retail, he's fuggin' THRILLED.
Did you know you can give yourself cavities by OVERLY-AGGRESSIVELY brushing? In completely unrelated news, my dental hygienist recommended I try brushing with my non-dominant hand.

Pulling this shirt out of retirement as I head to Kitsune Kon today.
Strangely enough, pink hair doesn’t look as out of place on me as I would’ve thought.
GUYS. The art @coralkate.art (on threads and Instagram) did of my ragtag ghost hunting team. Is. AMAZING. I still lose my mind every time I look at it. IT’S MY DORKS!!! AHHHH~ I love this SO FREAKIN’ MUCH!!!
I MADE AN ABOMINATION OUT OF BAJA BLAST. LIVE MAS, BITCHES. @tacobell.bsky.social
I swear, they’re friends. They have each other’s backs when they aren’t—y’know—at each other’s throats.
Tried something a little different here. I think I can conclusively say I won't be changing up to this normally, but I felt like drawing my space-case mechanic, Roswell. She's a weirdo. Enjoy???
Let's just say that Constance is a little rough around the edges....
Maybe Mother’s Day was less the stereotypical image and more filled with fighting over bubble wrap, chasing with an rc car, and adorable dinosaur bao that were fun until it was time to eat them, but it was wonderful and perfect. ❤️
Legend has it, if you say her name three times in a darkened room while offering up fresh blood, the ghost of jilted bride Alice Wilson will claw through the mirror, looking for a body to possess....
Jemi is single-handedly the ghost hunting team's marketing department. Thankfully, she has people skills. Unfortunately, no one else does.
Living out of an old school bus comes with its fair share of repairs, but at least you can count on Stoak to save the crew a few bucks by doing the oil changes himself. It's not like you can make it any worse...right?
Ander and Ein, my favorite brother duo. They understand each other in a way that no one else can... which is good, because, often enough, no one else DOES.
DH TOOK ME ON A SURPRISE DATE! I AM LOSING WHAT LITTLE CHILL I NEVER HAD.
It’s been a long journey getting here. Details on the agency to come at a later time, but I am now officially agented! (I think my ghost hunters are taking the news with the utmost grace.) #amwriting #amquerying #amagented
Why, yes, I did make another Vigo the Carpathian -themed New Year’s Eve dessert. Because of course, I would.
I really enjoyed doing this this year! …once the kids were asleep.
And then there’s these dorks. (I love them. I love them so stupidly much.)
