This year, I’ve gone through a lot of changes. Positive ones.

I moved to Nashville, and I not only found a community; I found a new way of making art: writing.

I’ll be using this account to share snippets of my writing process.

The first draft of my fantasy romance novel is finished. Now the real story begins.

A person holds the book cover for Lisa Jewell's "Then She Was Gone," a #1 New York Times Bestseller. The cover features bare tree branches with falling pink leaves. Overlay text reads "Then She Was Gone" and "Let's talk about it," with "Lemon8 @t0xicbrooke" at the bottom.

Then She Was Gone-let’s talk about it

Honestly I have no words for how insane this book was. Definitely not what I was expecting but I also cannot stop talking about it. It’s a mix between romance and true crime when a 15 year old girl goes missing and 10 years later her family starts getting answers but none of the answers they receiv
