This year has been profoundly challenging on a personal level, but I am over the moon to have achieved a professional goal cherished since the age of 4. As of today, I’m a published novelist! 🥳📖💘 Strap In is available from all good booksellers: waterstones.com/book/strap-i…

New literary pet peeve: when a book has a Scottish protagonist and the audiobook features an English voice actor who butchers Scottish dialect, and can’t do the accent to save their life. 🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️ Gonnae just hire someone fae Scotland?

This still doesn’t feel real, but I can’t wait for you to read the books of my heart! Three very lesbian novels about women finding love across difference. And I couldn’t ask for a more perfect home than @HeraBooks. ♥️🌶️

My @audibleuk wrap up for 2024 is in, and they couldn’t have done a better job summarising my taste in books.

This year I’m trying to cut back on book buying and focus on my unending TBR pile, but @JaeFiction’s Bachelorette Number Twelve is currently 99p in the UK Kindle store. A bargain too good to miss! 🏳️‍🌈📖 amazon.co.uk/Bachelorette-Nu…

Just been through all the books I’ve read in 2024 to fill out two Sapphic Book Bingo cards, and — for the first time — a Hidden Gems card. 🥳📚 As always, thank you so much to @JaeFiction for her tireless work championing the sapphic books community. ❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜

With Schmitt and Yasuda leaving Grey’s Anatomy, Grey Sloan Memorial is perilously close to deyassification. I’m going to need Amelia Shepherd to get a girlfriend yesterday. And Millin. They could even date each other, in the problematic yet compelling style of early MerDer. 🤷🏾‍♀️

I don’t know how to feel about my total @audibleuk listening time. In fairness they always have a lot of sapphic romances in the Plus Catalogue.

I bought a hoodie from menswear yesterday. It’s the thickest, fleeciest, most comfortable hoodie I have ever owned. Plus it doesn’t cling to my boobs AT ALL. And I get it now, why the straight girls are always stealing their man’s garments. Because I am never taking this off.

Influencers are wild. There’s a whole subgenre of videos on lesbian TikTok where women post about either sneaking their straps past security or having an agent examine their toy bags. 😳 You couldn’t waterboard that information out of me, nevermind compel me to share the footage.

I DID IT! 🥳There were moments when I thought #NaNoWriMo would get the better of me this time round. My blood, sweat, and (copious) tears have gone into this manuscript. But I fucking did it. 50,000 words of passionate lesbian romance. Seasonal Depression: 0, Gay Agenda: 1.

So does Ben Affleck 🤷🏾‍♀️
