PSA: Don’t ask people with chronic illnesses when they’re going to get better. Bc the answer is often never. Also don’t ask—or worse tell—them what they can do to get better. They’re doing it, tried it, or there’s a reason they’re not. Unless you’re their specialists just 🤐


I have written over 1 million words since June. Here are 8 of them.

When a warrior faerie prince falls in love with the Godmother of the Godchild he has come to kill, he must make the most crucial choice of all: Revenge or Redemption. Yet choosing with his heart could mean losing his home. Twisted take on Little Red Riding Hood coming up 👇

How do we feel about deus ex machina? Because … I have one, and I don’t hate it because it was a surprise even to me, the author. But I also know I am probably biased haha


A friend brought this to my attention and while these always make me feral with rage let me assure you my books would 💯 make this list. New life goal to one day join these fantastic authors. In the meantime, support them they’re doing good work 👇 cbc.ca/news/canada/ed…

There’s nothing I love more than an unreliable narrator! One of my new favorite authors @MeganDavidhizar has done it again with her sophomore novel GASLIT. Amazing YA thriller!

This book has perhaps my favorite MC of all time but has been very challenging to write for other reasons. An artist walks into the classroom of an ethics professor and nothing in their lives will ever be black and white again.

After rewriting the midpoint scene NINE times I have finally made it beyond (thanks to amazing CPs, IYKYK). Now, let the chaos begin.

One of the things about doing a romance with the same couple in book two is you have to ruin the romance to put it back together. Not me, crying for the last 19,000 words.

You know you have a favorite character when they get a book 2.

Annnnd finished. Have I been awake all night (again)? Yes. Do I think it's a disaster? Yes. Did this go a lot darker than I expected? Absolutely. Am I still excited about it? Also yes.

Stuck at 60k, this one is very dark and I'm struggling to find the way out of the darkness :/

The circus is too good not to revisit, right? 🤣😂New circus book coming right up. Jk I haven't started just letting the characters marinate for a bit.

Read through the book today to see where I could cut. Added 6k words. Checks out. Time to let this sucker marinate before I make it any longer than it already is.

Finished my Alice in Wonderland retelling at the circus book today!!! It's hefty, 121k, so I need to edit quite a bit BUT the only thing you can't edit is a blank page and I now have plenty of not blank pages so woo!

On August 1st I will open to queries for one week or until my query inbox reaches 100 queries. Whichever comes first! Be sure to check my website or the Azantian website for more on my MSWL. You can also check out my IG MSWL highlight reel for random weird MSWL desires.


Magical circus book is well under way but requires WAY more research than I expected. Because you know, it's very important to have an accurate circus big top and trailers in a novel where peole turn into snow leopards and see emotions as tarot cards in their mind 😂#writerlife

Been thinking a lot about art lately and what it means to be an artist. Probably because I'm writing a lot about different kinds of art forms recently. I hope we can maintain art through the revolution we're living through right now. Art is what makes us human, after all.
