(MSWL)
Give me your stories where we run in the moonlight with werewolves , fall in love on nebula bound starships or frolicking with fae in fields in a land far, far away. I'm a fan of cozy, sweet, low and high heat romance.
Currently, I'm not looking to read dystopian romances, dark romance or romantic suspense novels at the moment.
Mentoring Style
I'm a cheerleader and brainstorming coach type of mentor. I believe in giving my mentee positive notes along with clear suggestions/critiques to aid them in crafting the strongest work they can produce. We will focus on growing on current author strengths, making improvements to certain areas in your work and outlining a manageable plan with the Smooch Pit program. I'm here to listen and guide my mentee through their writing journey and be an encourager.

*I believe in the strength of human creativity without generative AI and will do my best to work with you as a writer. If you've used AI for any part of your writing/manuscript process, then I will not be a good fit as a mentor.*
Applications
from Connections
I'd rather not consider people who I follow on social media as a mentee. I want to be able to have a distance and give you space to create and vent about the creative process. Otherwise, please apply.
