Hi everyone,

I'll start with the fun news. I won Nanowrimo this year! The month went by so quickly, and this year's Nanowrimo had a ton of ups and downs, but I survived woo hoo. Today I've got my PMP exam, so if I go radio silent, that's because with my accommodations it's an 8-hour exam with breaks. Yikes! But don't worry I will make it through. I've stocked up on safe foods and my favorite boba tea flavors, I just might be a blanket burrito for the rest of the weekend. Life update wise, I made a teeny tiny bit of progress on my Coursera classes, but I probably won't finish the certification until next year.

Alright, next for the fun part, holiday cards. I'm giving first dibs to my lovely ARC reviewers and beta readers, but if you've just had a rough year and could use something cute and fun, you're welcome to fill in the form as well. This year, I plan on sending out some holiday cards. This goes for any/all holidays, Christmas, Chanukah, Yule, etc. I've got stickers at the ready and cards. Plus, I might also throw in some fun miscellaneous items here and there, but those will be surprises. If you want to receive a holiday card from me, you have a few options, the first being signing up using this form and the second being sending me an email. As long as I have your shipping information and the holiday or occasion you want me to mention on the card, you're good to go. Reminder, if you don't feel comfy giving out your address, you can have the post office hold packages\letters for you, just make sure to inform them first.

On the writing front, I finished the zero draft for book 2, Dusk and Amy's story. My NaNoWriMo writing was all over the place this year, so here's a brief rundown. I made some progress on Rose and Gabriel's Christmas story, I got about 6 chapters done for Snow's Captive in total, 8 chapters and 8k words for the fairytale story although not in chronological order, and 2 chapters and just under 2k words for Poisoned by Love's Bite. So look forward to some more Kindle Vella stories and maybe a Christmas story...if I can finish it in time for Xmas.

And last but not least, I've got a snippet for you from Snow's Captive here. I'm also collecting readers for the next few chapters of the story, so if you want to be my one of my Alpha readers for the next 2-3 chapters, let me know and I'll get those over to you probably around Monday-Tuesday.

I have a question for you.

Have you watched Wednesday?

I'm an absolutely massive fan of the Addams' family, and while I wasn't a fan of how they changed the family dynamic in the beginning, I'm absolutely living for this show right now. The actress for Wednesday is just yes. Loving it. Highly recommend checking it out.

That's all for now.

Have a great day and stay safe!

Sincerely,

Julia (they/he)
