Happy September, folks. Next month, Marginalia will be one year old, which is pretty wild to consider. I feel like a lot has happened in just 12 months, but I suppose that’s true every time I look back over my shoulder to see the path behind. 

It's been BUSY, so I'm sorry that Marginalia was a little neglected. I hope you didn't miss it too much!!

Whatcha working on atm?

I’m positively frothing at the mouth to talk about Project H&H, my next YA novel. Alas, I cannot say much. But to make up for it, here is some art I commissioned of the main characters…

What’s the timeline for writing/editing/publishing?

The horrible truth of it is: it depends. 

Take my current WIP, Project H&H. The concept first came to me in 2022. I only began seriously drafting it about a year ago. Because I don’t write full time, and because I’m autistic and constantly trying to avoid burning out, it takes more time for me to draft. Some authors have a “one book a year” schedule, which is insane to me, even though they write full time. It’s just not enough time for me to let an idea and characters and worlds grow and bloom as much as they need to for a satisfying read. I process things slowly. Sorry!
