If you want nice things, don't have kids. You're welcome.


People are really bullying Ali Hazelwood over her opinion on Hunger Games characters? Please go outside. Touch grass. Pet a dog. Get a grip. #alihazelwood #Bookstagram


Them: I hate this book. Smoldering MMC's who lean in doorways and smirk are annoying cliches. Me: Uh, er, yeah. So what book are you reading again? *immediately adds to cart* #romancebooks #RomanceReads


I love when a morally gray rake falls hard for a tough wallflower heroine. #romancebooks #romancereader #romancewriter

A 40-year-old lawyer who doesn’t do feelings. A 26-year-old actor who never met a boundary he didn’t try to cross. In a city that never sleeps, can friends-with-benefits stay just friends? Anything But Scripted is my current WIP. #romancewriter #WritingCommunity #romancebooks

After sitting on my mature heroine/younger hero, opposites attract romance novel for way too long, I've finally entered the querying trenches. #amquerying #writingcommunity


Started writing fiction in my free time, and I'm so excited that I finished a book!


I read about the pregnancy "glow." At 30 weeks pregnant with my 4th kid, if pregnancy glow looks like irrational anger, frustration, and disappointment, then I am so pregnancy glowing.

My daughter‘s yelling that there’s a scary witch in her room, but I’ve been in here the entire time and haven’t seen anything. Weird.


It's the little things in life that make me thankful...Like during our roadtrip, 3 held in his vomit until he got to a Taco Bell bathroom instead of puking all over the backseat and his sisters.

My wife and I have a perfectly happy marriage as long as we fold each other’s clothes exactly the way the other likes them

My 3yo just called my 14mo a dumpster fire, so there's that.


"Yes, Susan, we are decorating for Valentine's Day again this year by not taking down our Christmas decorations yet." ~Me making excuses to my neighbors for why my Christmas decorations are still up in February.

Our dragon holiday display got fan mail! (And apparently the "true meaning of Christmas" involves judgmental bullshit?) 😂

What do I want for Christmas? I just want to EAT MY OWN DINNER without having to get up and get anything, feed anyone, make any more food, or listen to anyone cry. - Moms everywhere

Studies confirm that when a mother has been left alone with her children all day her husband is placed into the friend zone.
