Hello, lovely readers!

As summer heats up, so does my writing schedule. Between juggling manuscripts, preparing for a book event, and plotting what comes next, I wanted to take a moment to give you a peek behind the scenes of my writing life.

What I’m Working On Now

Right now, I’m deep in the drafting phase of a brand-new manuscript, and let me tell you, this one is already stealing my heart. It’s moody, magical, and full of the kind of emotional chaos I love most. The characters are loud (in the best way), and the world they live in keeps unfolding with every scene I write. I can’t wait to share more soon.

At the same time, I’m editing not one, not two, but three manuscripts. Each one is in a different stage of the process. Some need major revisions, while others are getting polished with line edits. It’s a little chaotic and a little messy, but honestly? It’s the creative whirlwind I thrive in.

Lit Love Savannah – July 9 to 13

Another thing I’m excited about is my trip to Savannah, Georgia for Lit Love Savannah. I’ll be there from July 9 to 13. If you’re attending, I would love to meet you in person. Come say hi, chat about books, or grab a signed copy. This event is full of passionate readers, brilliant authors, and bookish energy. It’s truly one of the highlights of my year.

Calling All ARC Readers!

I’ll soon be launching ARC sign-ups for my upcoming book, Beguiled. It’s a swoony, dangerous, dark romantic fantasy that’s equal parts slow burn and high stakes. If you love early reads and don’t mind leaving a review, I would love to have you on the ARC team.

👉 Click here to sign up as an ARC reader for Beguiled!

You’ll get exclusive early access to the book before release, behind-the-scenes updates, and my undying gratitude for helping Beguiled find its readers.

Thank you for following this journey and supporting my work. Whether you’ve read all my books or this is your first glimpse behind the curtain, I’m so glad you’re here.

Love,
Fay
