But for argument’s sake, let’s say such a person exists. Someone who loves another deeply, completely, without ever breathing a word.
Here’s the problem: how do you keep it secret?
Because real love, the kind that makes your pulse skitter and your heart do the stupid thing in your chest every time they walk into the room—that kind of love leaks.
It shows up in your eyes, your voice, your every bloody expression.
AI Just Went Mainstream. Here’s What That Means for Indie Authors
AI has officially gone mainstream—and that matters more than you think. This week on the blog, we’re looking at what the AI tipping point means for indie authors (hint: it’s not time to panic, but it is time to get your author platform AI-friendly).

Your Personal Weasel Word List (and Why You Should Actually Use It)
Before you dump your draft on an editor—or on your future self—you should be doing a ruthless cleanup pass.

The trick is to catch them before your editor does. Bonus: clean manuscripts make ebook compilers very, very happy (and don’t randomly explode on Kindle).

Sybil Ludington: Teenage Girl vs. the British Empire (Sort Of)
In 1777, sixteen-year-old Sybil Ludington may have ridden through a stormy night to rally a scattered militia—and possibly outshone Paul Revere while doing it. Or… maybe she didn’t. The truth is tangled in legend, but the story of a teenage girl rising to the moment (and then vanishing from history) is worth dusting off. Whether myth or memory, Sybil’s ride says a lot about the women history tends to forget.
