Omg y'all, look at this art a reader (la.thursday on insta) made based on Cheap Suit Plot! I hope H.G. Wetherbee has good insurance... #sullivanhardgrave#art#artist#fanart
I'm incredibly close to having at least a first draft done of all five books in the Chloe series. Like, literally four chapters away. But I really wanna write a cozy mystery about a seaside town with beasties and dark secrets. #writingstruggles#ADHD#sullivanhardgrave
More character art incoming! Here's HWE, looking like a smoke show, I must say. This portrait was done by Dina, who goes by r4nc1dd_ on DeviantArt, Reddit, ArtStation, and most of the other major platforms. #Chloestewartnovel#whoisHWE#sullivanhardgrave#art#comissionedart
Let's start off the weekend with some AMAZING character art! This portrait of the one and only Crank was done by Julio Pedro Amorim, who you can find at www.artstation.com/juliopedroart#Chloestewartnovel#whoiscrank#sullivanhardgrave#art#comissionedart
I get into that zen zone, and that's it. I need to write until I'm done. Getting that momentum is great, but don't kill yourself trying to get your work finished either. You can't write anything if you're dead. #writing#authors#selfcare#getsleep#writingtips#sullivanhardgrave

Beta reader and Critique partner feedback is super important to crafting a good story, but be careful. Look for trends, don't change everything based on one person's opinion. Have you ever received questionable feedback? Tell me about it in the comments! #writer #author #sullivanhardgrave
WIP of Giuseppe "Crank" Gallo, one of the lead characters of The Case of the Cheap Suit Plot, due out in 2024. Yes, I used a photo of Adrien Brody as the basis for this image. Red Flags and Green flags in comments #Authors #art #characterart #cheapsuitplot #sullivanhardgrave #chloestewartnovel #WIP
As an overwriter, I constantly write entire scenes and chapters I later have to edit out. Yes, this meme actually describes something from my first draft. I liked writing it too, but you gotta kill your darlings. #Authors #writers #killyourdarlings #sullivanhardgrave #cheapsuitplot
