Paisley’s base-color stage! 🖤

This is where the sketch starts getting its colors and feeling a little more alive. She’s still a work in progress, but I’m excited to show you how she develops. 📖

He failed every bravery test by choosing to live. The company hired him for a cowboy-themed space barge that kills its heroes cheerfully. Now his only plan is to survive without glory.

Every writer struggles sometimes! From writer’s block to plot holes, writing isn’t always easy. What’s your biggest challenge as an author?

She swore never to return. Then she inherited a haunted oddities shop, a staring cat, and a 1927 ghost with secrets. A baker's 'accident' refuses to stay closed. The dead have the truth.

Audrey was always meant to feel a few steps ahead of Lottie when it came to fashion in 𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝐿𝑎𝑠𝑡 𝐻𝑒𝑖𝑟 𝑜𝑓 𝐵𝑟𝑎𝑑𝑏𝑢𝑟𝑦 𝑀𝑎𝑛𝑜𝑟. Her black drop-waist afternoon dress is based on a French Madeleine & Madeleine gown from around 1919 (purchased at Bergdorf & Goodman in New York City), and 𝐑𝐎𝐔𝐆𝐇 𝐃𝐑𝐀𝐅𝐓 𝐌𝐄™ apparently decided the reader needed a full guided tour of every pleat, sash, neckline, floral accent, and daring inch of dropped waist. 😂 The final version keeps the parts that actually matter: the loose silhouette, the decorative bands, the modern shape, and what the dress says about Audrey. She’s fashionable. Confident. A little unconventional. And, crucially, she’s showing Lottie a version of womanhood that feels newer and freer than anything she grew up around. One of the things I loved about writing The Last Heir of Bradbury Manor was using the clothes to help tell that story. The fashion still matters... I just eventually learned it doesn’t all need its own paragraph.Photo, no description

I love old houses.

Unfortunately, Rough Draft Me loved them a little 𝐭𝐨𝐨 much.

Winthrop House in The Last Heir of Bradbury Manor was heavily inspired by 𝐀𝐜𝐤𝐥𝐚𝐦 𝐇𝐚𝐥𝐥, a seventeenth-century mansion in Middlesbrough.

I love old houses. Unfortunately, Rough Draft Me loved them a little 𝐭𝐨𝐨 much. Winthrop House in The Last Heir of Bradbury Manor was heavily inspired by 𝐀𝐜𝐤𝐥𝐚𝐦 𝐇𝐚𝐥𝐥, a seventeenth-century mansion in Middlesbrough. And when I first wrote Lottie’s arrival there, apparently I decided the reader needed to know 𝙀𝑽𝙀𝑹𝙔𝑻𝙃𝑰𝙉𝑮. The mullioned windows. The stone lintels. The chimneys. The cornices. The pilasters. The pediment. The coat of arms. Basically, I stopped writing a gothic novel and briefly became a very enthusiastic real-estate agent and/or architectural essayist. The final version keeps what actually matters: Winthrop House is orderly, prosperous, bright, and untouched by decay. Everything Bradbury Manor isn’t. That contrast tells you more about both houses than three paragraphs of architectural vocabulary ever could. Sometimes research gives you more detail. Editing teaches you which details deserve to survive. Swipe for the real Acklam Hall and then for the 𝐑𝐎𝐔𝐆𝐇 𝐃𝐑𝐀𝐅𝐓 𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐒𝐈𝐎𝐍™ in all its Zillow-listing glory.Photo, no descriptionPhoto, no description

One of the things I loved researching for The Last Heir of Bradbury Manor was all the tiny sensory details that make 1919 feel lived in.

Clothes are easy to show. Smell is a little trickier.

One of the things I loved researching for The Last Heir of Bradbury Manor was all the tiny sensory details that make 1919 feel lived in. Clothes are easy to show. Smell is a little trickier. Lottie’s mother wore 𝑬𝒂𝒖 𝒅𝒆 𝑪𝒐𝒍𝒐𝒈𝒏𝒆 𝒂𝒖 𝑯𝒆́𝒍𝒊𝒐𝒕𝒓𝒐𝒑𝒆 𝒃𝒚 𝑩𝒆𝒓𝒕𝒆𝒍𝒍𝒊, an actual early-20th-century fragrance with that sweet, powdery, almond-and-vanilla character that became tied to Lottie’s memories of her. And unlike some of the other things I’ve shared from the rough draft… I apparently decided this one was worth keeping almost exactly as written. 😂 The location changed. The scene got tighter. But the green bottle, faded flowers, and that scent bringing her mother back for just a moment all survived. Sometimes editing means cutting half the description and once in a while you look at something and think: Nope. That stays.Photo, no description
