an update 🫶

This past week has been absolutely insane. Emotions ranging from excitement to borderline panic as the month progresses, so I thought it would be only fair to share what my mind has been like the past week and what the next three weeks are going to look like.

♥️

For starters, a lot of you have been following me from the time I posted book/writing memes. I do not want to stop those, but Lemon8 doesn’t really push that type of content for me anymore. On brighter news, I do have more tucked away and to be shared when the time comes!

♥️

The content has changed. I will be push more writing advice and tips soon! Right now, I ask you to bear with me as I release my poetry collection. It has been one of the most challenging experiences, but liberating at the same time.

♥️

the art beneath the cage is set to release in 20 days. I have ran into some issues with the process and at some point during the week I shut down. Panic consumed me and I was trying to find answers. I was lucky enough to be able to voice my concerns with another indie author and she helped me come down with a solution. Luckily, everything looks pretty good right now 🫶🏻

♥️

Finally, my novel, Fatalities of us Against the World. I have not abandoned her. In fact, there are some new things happening behind the scenes in the midst of getting ready to release TABTC. I will share more content about that this week, possibly double posting 🤫 .

2024/11/11 Edited to

As an emerging writer, sharing my journey is vital for connecting with readers and fellow authors. In today's digital landscape, keeping an authentic voice resonates deeply with audiences. Through candid updates, I aim to foster a supportive community. My poetry collection, 'The Art Beneath the Cage', explores themes of liberation and self-discovery, reflecting the complexities and nuances of creativity. This intimate look into my process not only gives insight into my progress but encourages other writers to embrace their challenges. Writing is often filled with ups and downs, and discussing the obstacles faced—like panic during the release process—can empower others facing similar struggles. Additionally, engaging with indie authors has been invaluable; their support and shared experiences can lighten the burden. As I prepare for the launch, I plan to share writing tips to help inspire a new generation of storytellers. The hashtags I employ, such as #writingyourstory and #booktok, not only categorize my work but help others discover content aligned with their interests. This community is essential for growth, and I look forward to contributing and learning from the collective experiences. Stay tuned for more insights and supportive content as I continue this creative endeavor!
