Story #6 is complete ✨

Hello again. I'm gonna keep this brief because it's 10:30pm on a Tuesday and I am sleepy. Buuuuttt, I finished story number 6, whoot whoot!

The funny thing is, this wasn't even the story that I was planning on working on. I didn't even have any brainstorms or plotting for this story, but my brain had other plans apparently. I was working on a different story completely when this one just came spilling out of me. It is novelette length, currently sitting at 13,129 words, and I finished writing it in six days as well as completed the first round of edits on it.

I don't know why my brain wanted to spit this story out. It's something that I have never written before, however, it truly made me extend myself in a way I haven't before when it comes to my writing. Whenever I choose to publish, I hope people like it. No one has to like it, really. But it would be nice if people did. I have an audience in mind and from what I can see other people speak about online, this particular audience seems to be pretty small but is known to be loyal. I hope this is true, but I won't dwell on it now. I haven't even published anything yet lol.

Anyway, I just wanted to come on here and share that. 6 stories down, 4 more to go until I reach 10. Then I will apply for and register my copyright. I know people say that copyright is not that important to have as an indie author with no audience, but it is important to me so I'm getting it.

That's all for tonight. I'm gonna get to bed. I'll be back soon with another writing update.

Finally hitting publish

Hello everyone and happy new year if you are reading this. I just wanted to stop by and say that I have finally taken the leap and published my first story on Amazon! It's been an interesting final month of 2025 and quite frankly, I am glad 2025 is over. I stayed home and brought in the new year by publishing my book lol. This first book is my shortest and called Rainy Day in . It's a sweet but steamy read about two best friends who finally admit to themselves that they like each other and take the next step in their relationship. This story is probably my least spicy story that I've written but I still like it. It's short and sweet and for the spice rating, on a scale of 1 to 5, this story would probably be a 3. However, the spice/steam rating scales confuse me as there are many out there and none quite align enough to make the ratings consistent. I just know that while there is an explicit scene in my story, many people would probably find it very vanilla, and I'm...

April wrap-up and a new book release!

 I meant to have this blog post up already, but we are now already a week into May and my newest book release has already gone live 😓  Writing & Publishing updates Yes, you read that right. My sixth story, Goddess Playhouse , has gone live on Kindle Unlimited and for some reason I feel really antsy about it. I don't even know why. I finished writing this story last year, as most of my stories were already written and I have been publishing my backlog. But for whatever reason, publishing this one has me fidgety and feeling nervous flutters in my stomach. This was another story that was completely out of my comfort zone, however, I felt so free when writing it. This was cathartic for me and I know I've said that before about my stories, but I don't know what other word to use to describe how I feel and felt during the drafting process. I guess I'm also nervous because I want people to like this one too. Well, I want people to like all my stories lol. This one just ha...

February recap and things

Hello there. I know it's mid March and I am just now getting around to giving a writing and self-pub update for February, but things got weird for me in February. Writing stuff No writing updates really. I have been feeling creatively blocked and I know it's because of how I have been feeling with everything going on lately. I have also been struggling at my full-time job. Without going into any details, any time I feel like this, my creativity completely disappears. So once again, I have gone another month without writing any new stories or ideas. Newbie publishing stuff I am projected to make around $5 for the month of February which is an increase from January so yay! I am still debating with myself on if I am going to get an instagram again. I feel like the older I get and the more my country goes to shambles with lack of privacy protections and all that, I become more and more averse to the various social media platforms. YouTube, Reddit, and this blog are my only social m...
