My heart is full after Fallosophy’s epic launch

My heart is full after Fallosophy’s epic launch party last night. 🙏

If you have pics and my phone number, please send them to me!

Thank you @creeds.to for such a lovely venue and thanks @typebooksforesthill for selling lots of books and @festofauthors for supporting this event. 🙏

But most of all thanks to everyone who supported me last night—whether you were in the room or watching from your phone because you have the flu 🖤 I love you so bad.

And if I ruined your book by signing it with something weird, DM me and I will get you a new one! I’m still figuring this out as I go. 😬

I recently spelled my own name wrong on my passport application 🤦‍♀️ and while I am beyond excited about my book coming out in 6 FREAKING DAYS, I am super nervous about signing books.

What if I get your name wrong? What if I try to write something clever and it doesn’t land? Will my writing even be legible? (It will not)

HOW MANY BOOKS WILL I RUIN

In the midst of my panic I found these pens that match my book cover 🤩 Retail therapy works.

Fellow authors, what’s your best advice for book signings? 🖊️ 📖

Tfw you realize you put your track pants on backwards and even tho they’re your favourite pair you’d rather cut them off with scissors and spend the rest of your life pants-less than put your legs thru leg holes one more effing time.
