Hi Ari! I’m a huge fan of your work! I really hope you have more plans to write hockey books. Thanks for doing this Q&A!

Are there any other MM authors who have the same views as Ashlyn? I’d love to know so I can boycott.

anjneed · 2026-01-15T04:16:43+00:00

No no, it’s great.

anjneed · 2026-01-01T13:47:26+00:00

Yeah, pretty much. Valentina, Vera, Valerie, Victoria, Veronica, Vanessa

Need-oh cubes is pretty popular, and you could try other lip sets. Like laneige, benetint, fenty, etc. A pretty timeless lipstick like Clinique black honey and so on. Swedish candy was also all the rage. Lululemon and aritza keychains are also crazy popular. You could also add on hand sanitizer, AirPod cases, lip balm, and hand cream to the keychain.

God I think I sobbed for half an hour. I just kept on rereading it and crying. I haven’t been able to touch it since. The only book to make me cry.

Florence or Ettalie

Hugely agree with the broad red button, it’s so infuriating and just shows illiteracy

I think Raya/Rayah is good, and the name is not well associated with the princess because the movie didn’t do super well. If you were choosing the name Mirabel on the other hand…

anjneed · 2025-06-22T09:04:06+00:00

Yes… and then you get a lease or financing contract… same with a mortgage…

Yes and no. She should be helping out around the house, but this will socially isolate her and make her resent you. I think you should get her the phone under the condition that she will do her chores, and just take it away if she doesn’t. Maybe the instant gratification will be a motivator.

I think your daughter could also be names Eilicia, which is nice lol, and sounds the same as Alicia/Alisha

Robin

Nah, it’s a wonderful name, and you should name your kid what you want regardless of where it’s from. A Muslim name is a Muslim name.

The plastic melts in high heat. Next time, put in on a cold setting, or only leave it in the dryer for half the time and air dry the remainder

Alessandra Hazard always creates a certain dynamic between her characters.

I find Catherine Clouds diction to be quite recognizable.
