As mentioned in my previous post, I have recently taken a big step back from writing.

A lot of that meant stepping away from social media as well. I saw an improvement in my day-to-day, and this morning, I decided to end my Twitter account for many reasons. That site hasn’t been fun since Musk bought it, and it wasn’t showing any signs of improving. I also couldn’t help myself from peeping at it too often, so I ripped the band-aid off and deactivated it.

To my friends in what was once the #booktwt community, I miss what we had. It was so fun reading great indie books and talking about writing. Ever since the Blue checkmarks reared their heads, it hasn’t been the same. It lost a little something. I still root for you all and hope you find the fun I lost.

That being said. I’m going back to my roots.

Before I joined Twitter, I had a lot of fun sharing photos of books I read and talking to other readers on Instagram. I still intend to do so, and in fact, I may share my reviews on this site in the future. Feel free to pop over and say Hi and chat.

I won’t keep posting doom-and-gloom posts like this. It was worth explaining my sudden departure and leaving a trail of breadcrumbs to where you can find me now so people don’t think I vanished into dust. I may try out Threads or Bluesky at some point, but I haven’t made a big effort yet.

Come say Hi!

Keep your head up.
