Hi BlueSky! I write cozy fantasy for stressed out, exhausted adults who need a mental hug (Raise your hand! Yeah, me too ✋). Just like in my stories, I hope to find a kind community with open arms, furry friends, yummy recipes, and lots of laughs. Tell me about yourself & let’s be friends! 🦄🌈🌸

Only 14 days away from #cozyfantasy book sale, Cozy the Day Away! #Audiobooks, #paperbacks, bundles, #ebooks and more! 9 categories, #NOAI, indie and hybrid authors! Over a hundred books and counting. Don't miss the last #booksale of the year. 😍📚💯🎉

What Is A Cozy Fantasy? In this post, we explore the genre. We include the elements of cozy fantasy – with plenty of examples. #cozyfantasy #fantasyfiction #amwriting #writingsky

Yaaay! Hit 200+ reviews 🎉🥳 The others are chugging along too. I like to celebrate little milestones. What milestones has everyone else hit recently? #cozyfantasy #catbook #writinglife #Catsky #booksky

For my fellow #adhd #neurodivergent creatives out there, don’t be so hard on yourself 🥴 It really helps to track hrs. My brain: WE’RE FAILING! Reality: In 2.5 weeks + travel, events, & PMS, I spent 30 hrs writing 26k words on my first draft…breathe & listen to this song again 😮‍💨 #cozyfantasy #calm

💙📚🪐📚🌶️📚🌈 #cozyfantasy Want an #ARCReader #reviewcopy ? 🪶 Prince Charming would rather audit a dragon than slay it 🥰 Mature midlife MM romance 🔥 Loved as you are, no makeovers needed! 🐱 SO many kittens 🪄 Never vex the Archivist; she knows All The Hexes 📚 Priye’s #Lifegoals : BOOK BOOK ALL BOOK MINE

Halfway through 1st draft! Here’s a teaser of the cover I’ve been working on for book 5, The Secret of the Swirlalu 😉 Though I might make the serpent look less angry 🤔 “Following the spiral of magic & mystery might just bring you home.” #cozyfantasy #procreate #cozytalesoflarune

💙📚🌈📚🪐📚♿📚❤️🫖 I think I've gotten to the last 5% of editing on Chai and Charmcraft. The good part of editing is it makes it shine; the bad part is I'm staring at the hard parts! But this #cozyfantasy meets #romancelandia should be out in May. Now for format & blurb! lynnstrong.com/books/charmc...

Yay! First 5 stars! Thank you, person, whoever you are 😄🙏🩵 Hope the 1st written review is a happy reader too. I really want to get all the tales on audiobook this year (soon as it’s financially viable). #cozyfantasy #heartwarming #inclusion #blindcharacters #booksky #fantasybooks

Bluesky, I don’t really know how you work yet but please send me indie romance, romantasy and cozy fantasy authors to follow! Extra love for authors writing queer, disabled, plus size characters! ❤️🏳️‍🌈🥰

Got inspired to start drawing the cover for book 5, Secret of the Swirlalu! A more adventurous tale about two brothers & the mysterious source of Larune’s magic. If Indiana Jones was an elf and Uncharted was #cozyfantasy, lol 😜 Excited for this one!

It was a month ago that I posted?! Time moves too fast 😵‍💫 But had a great time at #Hearthcon! 🤗 Now I’m about to hibernate in the mountains & buckle down to pub Lily by end of Nov, start & pub book 5 by end of Feb, then pivot to #litRPG! 😱 Don’t worry, I’ll keep up Tales of Larune too. #cozyfantasy

Rewrite/edit is taking longer than expected, but still on track for a fall release. Come on, #adhd, I know you hate this part & that new story is super shiny, but we gotta finish Lily in the Mist 😵‍💫 #cozyfantasy #selfpublishing #writerproblems #fantasybooks

I scored a Bookbub featured deal tomorrow for Tempest in a Teapot. So to celebrate that and my new series releasing Sept 8 I put the whole Serendipitea series on sale! Whimsical gaslamp romantasy with romcom vibes for fans of India Holton. #romantasy #gaslampfantasy #indiebooks #cozyfantasy

Wow! Who knew my 2nd book would be the most popular! I didn’t 😄 I’m chuffed, but it’s starting to look suspicious, lol. (Not that I “want” lower stars). I’m just kinda amazed 😳 Enjoy it while it lasts, I suppose. Eventually someone will hate it 😆 #cozyfantasy #dragonbooks #cutedragons

Cover reveal! By the amazing & talented Zaccura 🩵 4th book of Larune. This time we follow Gilly, the blind goblin monk on her search for the mythical snow leopard 🤗 Also looking for #ArcReaders. Hoping to have it ready to read by mid-September. Still have some editing to do. #cozyfantasy #cozyreads

Enjoy this story, "On Wings of Silk and Dreams", from A CLOCKWORK'S DREAMING AND OTHER TALES, as read by Moose Matson. #CozyFantasy #whimsical #BookSky #cottagecore youtu.be/d-9E134kuyw?...

It is time! You can grab an ARC of my upcoming book The Driftcap Inn on BookSirens. If you are looking for a fantasy with cozy vibes, found family, and an MM romance subplot go grab yourself a copy. booksirens.com/book/O0XGHGM... #fantasybooks #cozyfantasy #lgbtqbooks #romanticfantasy

Editing out all my overused crutch words… one page… at… a… tiiime. Ugh 😑 Me and my “buts, justs, & onlys” 🙄 #editing #authorsky #writersky #writingcommunity #cozyfantasy

COVER REVEAL AND ANNOUNCEMENT TIME!! I’m so excited to announce that TREASURES AND THEATRES will be OUT FOR THE WORLD TO SEE THIS MONTH! I’m so nervous, but excited!! #booksky #authorsky #writingcommunity #amwriting #wip #cozyfantasy

I’m so excited! Never realized there were more #dinotopia books! I have the 1st 2 from the 90s & loved them then & now. So beautifully illustrated. I-am-snuggling down w/my coffee to go on an adventure with dinosaurs & feel like a kid again ☺️ #cozyfantasy #90snostalgia #90skid #jamesgurney #artsky

📚💙🪐🌈🐶🤝😺🤝♿ Hey #booksky #cozyfantasy and #arcreaders -- Euli would like you to know she is a Very Good Girl with a Very Good ARF. Want to read her story? (And also Haroun's and Shai Madhur's, of course.) Taking ARC -- sorry, ARF -- applications at lynnstrong.com/books/haroun

Some days are just not magical 🥴 And that’s okay (I tell myself, lol). Maybe it’s just a 1 page edit day. (Cartoon by yours truly) #cozyfantasy #writerlife #unicorns #writerhumor #coffee #authorcommunity #authorhumor #writersky

Done with the first draft of Lily in the Mist! Now it’s just an edit/rewrite, then a sensitivity reading. So I’m hoping a late summer release? And here’s a sneak peak of a little detail on the upcoming cover of Gilly the goblin monk carving a statue 😉 #cozyfantasy #cozytalesofLarune #fantasybooks

I’ve been listening to this on repeat for pretty much the entire time I’ve been writing Lily in the Mist. So peaceful & cute. Hopefully this vibe will be infused in the story 🥰 youtu.be/LnES9ALXwIc?... #cozyfantasy #cats #youtubeambience #meditation #cozyvibes #peacefulvibe #fantasybooks

Oh. It’s only been 2.5 months since I started the first draft of my 4th #cozyfantasy, Lily in the Mist. I kept feeling like it’d been twice as long. I need to ease up on myself, & take the wisdom of the goblin monk more to ❤️ lol 😆 Cover reveal coming soon! It’s going to be so gorgeous 😍 #snowleopard

Always so motivating to hear happy readers like this 🥰 Guess I better write faster! 😬 #cozyfantasy #lgbtqbooks #gayromance #mmromance

Like a fantasy James Herriot?! I’m in!

Look at this cute little leopard 😍 My sweet hubby got her as a mascot for my 4th Cozy Tales of Larune book 🥰 Lily in the Mist features a mythical snow leopard & a peaceful “small acts add up to a good life” vibe. Can’t wait to share it w/the world! (Aiming for late summer) #cozyfantasy #snowleopards

Me trying to push my book into 100 reviews. C’mooooon! 😝 I get a trickle of 1-3/week. I’ve done ARCs, but maybe I need to dial in my CTA in the book. What’s been your strategy to get reviews? #cozyfantasy #writercommunity #selfpublished #author #booksky #catsky #catbooks

Which cute sticker should I put on my computer? 🤔 #cozyfantasy #catsky #cutecats #stickers #catsandcoffee #🐈

Oh my word. That was the hardest time I’ve ever had coming up w/a title but I think I got it for book 4 😮‍💨 Some discarded ones: Crystal by Crystal, Blankets & Blizzards, Strong as Stone Soft as Snow, Throw Snow Laugh Much. And the winner? Tell me what you think…Lily in the Mist! 😉 #cozyfantasy

One of my little joys in life is putting on new soft slipper socks ☺️ And I always try to wear my cozy things as far into spring/summer as possible 😆 What are your little joys? #cozy #cozyfantasy #ilovefall #fuzzysocks #gratitude
