OMG @djarinmuse 😂😍 ILYSM! Thank you for the shoutout! I'm SO EXCITED to get Basic Training and my other WIPs out for you guys to feast upon!

WIP WEDNESDAY!

I was tagged by @nerdieforpedro (over on my main) and by @kewwrites and can I just tell you I love being tagged by these two writers who bring so much creativity to this fandom...I'm feeling sappy but it's true, I love and appreciate all the different voices that come across my dash and find y'all so inspiring, I wish I had time to read everything that's out there.

I finally have new words down for the next chapter of Second Chances, it's my oldest and longest fic and I just created a new Masterlist, hoping I'll find some new readers for it. It's about a girl who falls in love with a guy, she paints pictures, he's the leader of Mandalore...and they just want to have ten good minutes to themselves to fuck but shit won't stop hitting the fan! I've been working on this fic for two years!! TWO! IT'S 100,000+ WORDS. I literally taught myself to write again with this fic, you can practically see my brain developing new pathways when you read it.

And fuck it... here's a whole scene (this chapter is coming soon, technically still a draft)

Din’s voice comes through, “What the hell was that Rook!?” “A counter agent, good against most poisons. I always keep it on me.” Vasoux practically shoves Din aside. In front of your face now is a tall, really good looking guy you’ve never met, who helps himself to pulling up on your eyebrow with his thumb to look right into your eye. “She’ll be okay.” You snap back, slurring, “Oh…will I pretty boy?” He let's go but doesn't move in time.

You squirm and whine, “Boba…lemme go.” Boba Fett lets you go and you immediately fall forward into the arms of Vasoux Rook. He grins, “Woah uhhh.” You try pushing yourself off him but end up just leaning, slurring and sloppy, “I like tha’ purple armor. You guys have uh like…claim…” Din pulls you by the shoulders off him, keeping you upright on unsteady feet “on that color or…” Din keeps you from tripping. “Malla talk to me, you feel okay, does anything hurt?” Din maneuvers you to your bed. You shake your head no, lazily, “I stabbed Jon through the chest. He died.” Jon stands struggling to get to his wound under his beskar, coughing and failing to catch his breath, “I’m not dead…you bitch.” Din whips his head up, practically flies across the room and tackles him. His fists landing blows all over the stocky, shorter Mando. Brax and Daro allow it until Din grabs a fistfull of Jon’s hair, pulling his head back, ready to slam it into the floor. They have to pull Din off of him.

The Illustrated Second Edition of Surrender is available now! 👀

Ch. 15 - The Second Lie “I never admit when I’m wrong, not even to myself. Can you forgive me… Mistress?” Dave’s quiet honestly sunk in, and I realized that the power I’d exercised over him during sex had carried over and bled into his conscience. It had led to him baring his soul, seeking absolution through honesty outside of a situation where his own sexual gratification was at stake.

You guys!!! 💖

I am SO excited to announce that the 2nd Edition of Surrender is out now, and it's illustrated!! This edition is available on Kindle Unlimited (free for subscribers) or in eBook format for $3.99 (US).

I crafted a custom header image for each chapter, and some of them are SPICY!! 🌶️🌶️🌶️

Enjoy! 😘

This is a friendly reminder to never, ever publish your book with a publishing company that charges you to publish with them. That is a vanity press, which makes money by preying on authors. They charge you for editing, formatting, cover art, and more. With most of these companies, you will never seen a cent of any royalties made from sale of your book. A legitimate publishing company only makes money when you make money, they will never charge you to publish with them. If a company approaches you and says "Hey, we'll publish your book, just pay us X amount of money," tell them to go fuck themself and block them.

It connects, okay!

prompt 2404

List four attributes that describe your personality. Write down the opposite of each one. Create a character with those four attributes and take them out for a spin.

Remember, you will always be growing as a writer. There is no peak, only improvement. It’s a continual learning curve and you can only go up from here. So keep writing lovelies.

Just a couple of weeks left for you to read the original fic if you want! 💖
