I don’t usually post selfies, but I have to today! I was having a rough, stressful day, but then this beautiful surprise outfit arrived in the mail from my mama! It’s perfect for writer’s conferences. I so love my mama @karenroat95 who always supports my goals and career. I wish I could hug her in person! . . . #lovemymama #baddaygoodday #seldomselfie #mamalove #writersconference #writerlife #writerstyle #literaryagentsofinstagram

I love Bath! We saw the Roman baths (my jam), the lovely abbey, and the ballrooms where Jane Austen would have danced. From 1st century, to Middle Ages, to the 19th century! . . . . #bath #bathengland #bathuk #romanbaths #abbey #bathabbey #janeausten #ballroom #beautifulbuildings #somuchhistory
Canterbury Cathedral and Canterbury! I loved them both!!! The cathedral’s history is incredible, parts dating back to the Normans, and the city is gorgeous and adorable! . . . . . #canterbury #canterburycathedral #canterburyengland #canterburyuk #cathedral #stainedglass #medievalchristianity
