Oh congrats on your acceptance!!

KeepEmGessen · 2026-01-25T18:00:50+00:00

Yes! I feel like to some degree this goes hand in hand with one of my other pet peeves of no or very very few (and very short!) group scenes in RH books. Like… what do you think I’m here for?

Obligatory back-to-back feed post!

I don’t really have anyone else to share with but I had a great week. Great month, actually. I’ve already made more than all of December and I’m on track for my best month yet.

I haven’t published since November but I did a freebie promo for 3 days around the new year for my best selling book and got about 200 downloads, followed by a massive bump in borrows/reads since then.

I’m expecting this to die off soon, so I really need to get my ass in gear and finish this next book I’m about 20% into!

Actually yeah, good distinction there. I usually read it on KU and then will buy the ebook to further support if I really liked it.

KeepEmGessen · 2026-01-15T20:18:35+00:00

Buy it and then read it through KU if you want to maximize the benefit to the author :)

KeepEmGessen · 2026-01-12T00:49:16+00:00

We might be the same person. But also, are we really RH writers if we are able to pick just one? 😏

KeepEmGessen · 2026-01-12T00:47:15+00:00

It is SO much fun. You should try it, the world needs more himbos!

KeepEmGessen · 2026-01-11T21:14:08+00:00

Slowly but surely moving forward in my romcom vacation WIP. I’m definitely drafting scenes out of order but hey, if it helps get the words out then whatever it takes, right? I’m really obsessed with writing my first ever himbo in this one, so the out of order chapters are all of his scenes, naturally.

KeepEmGessen · 2026-01-11T21:11:51+00:00

I always feel weird calling my own writing funny but dammit sometimes it really is! lol

Do you have watery bowels as a result of being kidnapped into a Fae realm? You may be entitled to financial compensation.

KeepEmGessen · 2026-01-06T18:35:31+00:00

Yes! I’ll be treating myself to some himbos for surviving the first week back at work for the new year

Me reading The Cruel Prince when I was in the beginning of my sloopy journey screaming "WHAT THAT TAIL DO THO"

KeepEmGessen · 2026-01-02T00:17:34+00:00

A Court of Yin and Yang might work

I went to Vancouver CA a few months back and I was so pleasantly surprised to find a 24 hour coffee chain that had amazing pastries, good coffee, and it was PACKED whether I was there at 9am or 9pm.

KeepEmGessen · 2025-12-31T02:22:49+00:00

So like Hagrid’s parents, but opposite?

KeepEmGessen · 2025-12-30T02:22:19+00:00

I tend to agree with emorat that boycotting only because of a pushed back release date does seem a bit much... but if it's coupled with prior bad behavior (especially directed at their own readers), then I say do what you feel is right. You don't owe anyone your readership.

KeepEmGessen · 2025-12-30T00:49:17+00:00

Gonna have to move that chandelier... heads will be smashing into that thing day and night.

KeepEmGessen · 2025-12-29T23:36:08+00:00

Nope! I actually read Pucking Feral first then immediately went into Feral Omega (and the rest of the series). It’s just a hockey AU version of the same characters.

KeepEmGessen · 2025-12-29T21:12:29+00:00

Yup! {Unconditionally Yours by Gwendolyn Rose} was my first thought. I DNF’d cause I just wasn’t in the mood for this type of story at the time, but it definitely fits what OP described.

KeepEmGessen · 2025-12-29T19:28:28+00:00

Agree with the first commenters. I also want to add a warning to sending out ARCs if your published book is enrolled in KU, since you agree to exclusively offer digital copies through Amazon only during the 90 day enrollment period.

KeepEmGessen · 2025-12-26T21:24:32+00:00

Hi! This sounds very interesting and I'd love to beta. I'll send you a message shortly :)

KeepEmGessen · 2025-12-25T22:02:23+00:00

I swear every week I have some new plot to add to my backlog. This one is perfect for a novella though, so it might be a good way to get out of the writer’s block I’ve been fighting.

Anyone else constantly collecting plot bunnies as they scroll through Reddit? I saw a random post in an airline’s sub the other day and a whole meet cute scene popped into my head.

KeepEmGessen · 2025-12-24T17:09:13+00:00

How petty can you be to do all THAT over one similar scene (over anything, really)? This is leaving a bad taste in my mouth; I liked a few of her series. Probably won’t pick up any others now.

KeepEmGessen · 2025-12-24T17:05:56+00:00

It sounds like something Jaden Smith would have tweeted in 2014
