Presenting my adult contemporary novel with a fantasy twist, inspired by the myth of Selene and Endymion: 🌊 a Moon-kindred scientist from a secret island 🎵 the magnetic Californian musician who unravels her 🌙 the ethereal tie that binds them: soulful and deadly #amquerying#writingcommunity

Mood board for my WIP. From top: silhouette of a woman in the ocean, the phases of the Moon, a misty and mystical arial view of an island, nigth sky with the Moon and palm trees, a silhouetted couple kissing, a vinyl on a record player, silhouette of a man looking to the night sky, a pair of headphones resting over a music sheet

"Hundreds of new books featuring characters of color and LGBTQ+ themes were found by the trash at a Staten Island elementary school." In boxes designated “not approved,” books bore Post-It notes: "teenage girls having a crush on another girl in class" and “negative slant on white people.”

Books on Black history, immigration found in trash by Staten Island school, sparking investigation

Sticky notes on the books discarded from the elementary school detailed apparent concerns about the contents.

How many #libraries have such a cool view even on a grey day?

View from the Central Branch of the Vancouver Public Library on a rainy day. Chequered floor, a few trees, and the spikes of BC stadium in the background.

Finished reading The Bell Jar last night. What an amazingly talented writer Sylvia Plath was.

Cover of The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath, a close up a young woman's face.

Late beta reader feedback takes the sting of the querying trenches disappointments.

Comment from beta reader after finishing my book: “Absolutely adorable! OMG! I loved it!!! Absolutely loved it!!!”
