    I'd like to send you a love letter (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone

    Read excerpt

    Hi, hello—it’s been ages! I’m here with you today because much has occurred since we last spoke, namely, I’ve announced my second book’s preorder campaign! I’ll give you updates about that, and then I’ll wax poetic about my summer because I’d like to use this forum for more than just book updates, and I like writing in this short-form, lower-stakes way. Read on! Preorder In Every Future, It’s Us from my local indie! <a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" href="https://substackcdn.com/image…

    Cover reveal: In Every Future, It's Us (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    I started writing my second novel, IN EVERY FUTURE, IT’S US, maybe a week or two after we sold YOU BETWEEN THE LINES, in June 2023. In order for me to fully buy-in to the torturous process of spending years thinking about characters, I need to write things that are recklessly close to real life. If YOU BETWEEN THE LINES contained very real threads about my imposter syndrome and anxiety, for my second book, I needed to find new threads to knot and untangle. Drawing on an old New Year’s Eve predic…

    Celebrating 1 year of You Between the Lines! (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone

    Read excerpt

    Exactly a year ago today, I became a published author! Publishing You Between the Lines changed my life—but actually writing it changed me even more. YBTL was the first book I’d ever written, and in doing so, I learned so much about myself, how I work, and what’s important to me.<div class="

    I love them, they're ruining my life (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    We’re a little over a year out from my second book, In Every Future, It’s Us, but things are happening behind the scenes! I’m working on copyedits, which is when a professional fixes all of your comma mistakes and kindly asks if you’re sure you want to use river as a verb (yes, very sure.) I wouldn’t say this stage is fun per se, because at this point I’ve read this book and its various versions 300 times. And while the first kiss scene still gets me all squirmy, I admit I’d rather be reading Da…

    I wrote another book (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    Sometime in my teens, I started playing this game with myself where I would write a letter to “Future Katie” on New Year’s Eve. I’d wax poetic on how the year went—a litany of worries and self-critical musings—and then I’d make a list of predictions of what I thought would happen in the new year. Would I be dating someone? Would I get into the college I wanted? Would my constellation of friends remain steady, or would I become closer to some people I didn’t expect? Would I be happy?I’ve always b…
