The Pitch. At the glitzy CappaCale, Londyn dances for tourists, but when she volunteers for the club's black-market B2B implant to get some extra credits for her brother's medication, she starts seeing a horrific death that doesn't belong to her. Londyn's waking world is unraveling. Her boss/boyfriend is becoming more obsessive, her brother can't take anything seriously, and she might just be falling for the implant's inventor, Julian Butcher. As the mod pulls her toward her breaking point and social unrest seethes in Miami, Londyn must decide whether to surrender her mind to the system that has consumed everyone she has ever cared about, or tear herself free by inviting a violent, uncontrollable force into the mind she barely owns herself.

Did you know it's National Author Day? 🥳 I celebrated by writing a letter to the author of one of my favourite reads this year. I've never done that before! But I'm thinking about doing it every year now (a little new tradition). Have you ever written to your fav author?

Damn. In all my pumpkin-carving years, I've never had goblins steal my jack-o'-lantern before. 😂 May he Rot in Peace on someone else's porch.

I cut my toddler's hair for the first time today. No bowl cuts, but neither of us is okay.

Sometimes I feel like authors get agents and then think they’re too good/can’t be bothered with those still in the trenches. Like, what?? No way. I just sent seven referrals out for an author friend seeking rep. Lord knows this journey’s hard enough as it is. Let’s build each other up when we can. 💜

Like with writing, my art reflects my trauma. Also, watercolour pencils are dope AF.
