@arindown Awww, thank you!! In all fairness the book’s in the editing stage so I’ve had a while to develop them… which I kind of love doing with all my heart. 😝 And YES, Har is hands-down an ISTP-T. He can definitely be assertive, but yeah, he’s shy. 🙃 Plus, his PTSD contributes to that side of his personality. 😉

(@arindown Hey, thanks for tagging me! 😉)
@winter-rose Okay, this is gonna be long. 😆
So yes, I write Army stories, but I actually have LE characters too, including a POV character. I’ve never specifically sat down to research it, because it’s something I’m pretty well familiar with. 😝 But here’s my thoughts.
Heads-up, probably needless to say,…[Read more]

@melodyjoy Thanks so much for tagging me!!
I love how real this feels, like I just watched Chloe doing all this stuff. And I totally feel for her in some people just not being draining. 😅
Honestly, the only thing I can think to change is smoothing out a couple places…

Of course!! It took me a bit to get the hang of things here too, but everyone’s nice. 😉
His name is Thunder Canyon. 🥰 And yeah, he’s big, even for a retriever, but he’s so gentle.
I write contemporary war fiction–modern day military stories. 💙 It’s a niche I think needs filled, and I love it.
I love that!! It’s neat that you’re…[Read more]

Oooh ooh ooh I am so here for this!
(Okay so, I’m slightly biased because I love broken characters, and make them all messed-up and moody and I’m done for.)
My POV character in my WIP, Harley, isn’t exactly bitter—well, maybe—but he’s seething angry with the world. He hates himself, he hates his best friend, he hates his battle budd…[Read more]

@arindown Thanksy, I will… ☺️
I’m a city girl myself, but I’m currently living in a small town… quite the adjustment, but I think it’d be a really setting. And yeah, “Mayberry” is one big reference, although I’m obviously more familiar with the song than the show. 😉
Well, if you get something to post tag me, I’d love to see it. …

His-fic is the best. 🥰 I mostly write contemporary, but I absolutely love historical fiction, and I write short his-fic stories sometimes—I just can’t do a full novel of it… yet. 😉 What era do you like to write about?

Okay. Christian movies I’ve loved. All of the Kendricks’, for sure… Overcomer might be my favorite, but I’m still super attached to Facing the Giants and probably always will be. 🥰

I write contemporary too. 😉 I’ve read The Girl Who Could See (how could that be so relatable…) and a couple of the Ilyon books—fantasy isn’t usually my thing, but I really enjoyed those!

Okay, I don’t have the time rn to go through it in-depth, but I sat down to read it over, and it’s captivating!! I love Jean’s personality shining through.
