Stepping Into My Author Era

Published on September 19, 2026 at 11:09 AM

Good morning, Little Leaves!!

I hope you're all doing amazing since last week's post, I know I am! 

I have a few new things to share with you all.

First, I did my "author photoshoot" yesterday! I am extremely happy with how they all turned out, we can thank my best friend for that! I attached one at the bottom, but if you want to see the rest, you have to go to my socials. They're linked at the bottom of the HOME page of this website.

Second, and this is important... my next short story is officially in the works, and it's FREE! 

That's right, it's going to be absolutely FREE for everyone to read!

It's called 'Landfall', a prequel to my full novel, 'Dead on the Gulf', that will be published near the end of this year. They are both horror stories, so I totally understand if you're not into them. I'm still here to help you heal through my blog, that will never go away.

I will say, after I saw the photos yesterday, I became more confident in myself. I felt like a whole new person, and in a good way. It definitely was something that made me extremely nervous at first, but I wanted to do it for me. I absolutely love them! I hope you all go check out the rest!

I'm thinking of having a little poll. I'll let my Leaves vote on which one I use as my official author portrait! 👀

Anyways, sorry for the late post! I slept in this morning... I deserved it, so do you. 

See y'all next Saturday!

- Autumn
