One socially-anxious boy desperately wanting to belong, plus one gay teen struggling against discrimination, plus one grieving girl haunted by her demons equals a roller-coaster ride through life and the way we live it.

Told from 3 very different points-of-view comes a story about how lives collide and people connect.

Meet Jack Folley, Timothy Harper, and Mauve White and dare to believe in the power of second chances and new beginnings.

Dealing with social anxiety, grief, the journey to self-acceptance, the importance of kindness and finding real friends, "Thanks, Tim." takes you down a path towards realizing we all matter and should feel nothing less than worthy.

Author of Thanks, Tim, Unless, Forget Me Lots, and more!

Thanks, Tim. is a product of years of living with intense social anxiety and the need to let readers connect to realistic characters that deal with it on a daily basis. It's a story about connections and the importance of self-worth and identity. We all matter and should feel nothing less than worthy.

I couldn't really say, depends on the story I'm working on. It's more of a hand-in-hand process that goes along with my manuscripts.

A student of mine in Advanced Lit. reached out and told me I should try uploading my work to the platform. I couldn't really choose one moment really. I've met so many wonderful people, and my readers mean the world to me. They are the reason I keep writing.

I'd bring my Abuela back and tell her I've dedicated my latest Novel to her. I lost her to Alzheimer so I'd really love that last conversation with her. Also, Ben Platt, a sweet, talented being who rocks my world. And Freddie Mercury, I'd just squeeze him tight and tell him the world wouldn't be the same without their music.

Reading. I'm always a reader first! Binging series with my boyfriend. Gaming with my daughter. Massive Zelda fans!

I identify as a Cisgender pansexual woman. I love being a woman and believe in romantic or emotional attraction towards people regardless of their sex or gender .

I'm expanding my latest Novella into a full-length Novel about intergenerational mental illness and how important it is to remove the stigma.

I have too many to choose from! They surely know who they are because when I'm not swooning over their works I'm praising their unique talent in shout-outs from my own account.

Read your eyes out, enjoy the ride, and write from the heart. Practice does make perfect. Listen to your stories and let your characters guide the way.

Bohemian Rhapsody, Champagne Supernova, You Only Hide.
