Y’all are not ready for how good @laurahankin’

Y’all are not ready for how good @laurahankin’s THE DAYDREAMS is!!!! I was lucky enough to read an early copy and it’s fantastic! Get out your dELiA*s catalogs, your butterfly hair clips, your metallic jeans, because this book transports you to 2004 and doesn’t let go of the nostalgia.

If you liked Cassidy Holmes you will love THE DAYDREAMS!!!

*this is not my official blurb and I will be posting about this book again closer to its pub date in 2023 but I had to scream about it somewhere!! GET HYPED.

Pass pages are here! It’s the (most likely) last

Pass pages are here! It’s the (most likely) last time I can go through this book and make sure there are no mistypes or errors or awkward sentences before people get to read it! Which is exciting and terrifying at the same time!

When I went through this with Cassidy, it was the step that hammered home that YES, THIS IS AN ACTUAL BOOK. This time, I was expecting it and I’m so jazzed we are at this point in the book’s life! I want readers to see it. I want people to read it!!

I took a similar picture on the same kitchen table for Cassidy’s pass pages. But this time I have a finished book and an “also by Elissa R Sloan” page in Hayley. This is happening. My career in writing is happening. It’s surreal.

Care Bears say #PRIDE!!! My first project with t

Care Bears say #PRIDE!!!

My first project with the new Janome sewing machine. I don’t know if it was the machine being so speedy or the fact that I’ve made a cropped unisex shirt before, but it went so fast and was a dream to work with. The one-step buttonhole maker was my favorite part (once I figured out how to use it). Yay!

Minneapolis photo dump! I visited very last-minute

Minneapolis photo dump! I visited very last-minute to see my grandmother and stayed a week. While my city boiled over with 100-degree temps, Minneapolis was a lovely 73 with a breeze. We took walks almost every day and I fell in love with neighbors’ flowers. (Though my grandma would want everyone to know that the poppy at the end is hers.) I owe people emails and I will get to them soon!

May. What a month. It was horrid, wasn’t it? 😔

Here’s my wrap up for the month. Al good reads, but I wished I could’ve immersed myself into books more. When my anxiety climbs like this, it just doesn’t happen for me.

FOUR AUNTIES AND A WEDDING
PART OF YOUR WORLD
LIKE A LOVE STORY
FRANKLY IN LOVE

On the plus side, I learned how to sew a jumpsuit (which I am wearing in this photo, made with @riflepaperco fabric). I learned how to make jeans type pockets on pants. Which is a plus.
