I #amquerying again! I’m looking for a home for my Southern historical literary coming-of-age novel with themes of small town friendship, nature as a main character, family and hardships, and secrets that often cage us.
Uplifting at times but keep a box of tissues close by!

After taking a lot of time off to heal from long covid and a bunch of complications that followed I’m excited to say I’m back!
I’m still experiencing some symptoms and am working my way through my medical team to get them down but I’m doing better and can actually see the light.

I celebrated 6 years of being married last weekend and he snapped a couple pics that I finally feel good about since coming down with long-covid. marriage isn’t perfect at all but I do feel lucky to have a partner who was patient and nursed me for nearly a year

I absolutely love this idea! something simple too, like IndieBookPress and can point to where to l buy them including links to author’s websites and all their books. news alerts of spotlight indie books and updates with author’s discounts! even free books! how do we do this?

I really wish there was an online service that was solely for selling indie books, and that it could get real recognition.
