When you get to write a MM shower scene on the Monday of the new year...
The calendar flips again. It’s back to the hustle. I’m not one for resolutions in the trendy-meme sense but I do find myself looking around my book-making-room and wondering if I should move my desk in front of the window (but it’s a gazillion gallons of snow out there and the view is kind of depressing. Also the plant table sits right in front of the window… where would I put the plants?) and…

Callie and Theo, New Year's Eve
I’m catching up on year-end admin stuff today but I wanted to share with you an excerpt from Five Nights of Yes, Ma’am between Callie and Theo and how they are spending New Year’s Eve together. Writing as Mercy Denton, Five Nights of Yes, Ma’am is one of two books I published this year but this book means a lot to me and I love how much readers have connected to this story. I hope 2026 brings you…

Bare and Frosty
At least that’s how it looks around here. For the last few weeks, I’ve been overhauling my website and I figured it’s past time for an update on the blog. I don’t mind this bare minimum look, that’s my goal for the next few months heading into the new year – Okay, aesthetics aren’t my thing, clearly but I like to think that I have become better at graphics since 2021. And yes, as a reader, I…

30 One-Sentence Stories From People Who Have Built Better Habits
In this article, I’d like to share 30 “one-sentence stories” about building better habits. (They are not all exactly one sentence, but they are very short.) None of these stories are mine. They were sent to me by readers of Atomic Habits. My hope is that these examples will illustrate how real people are putting the book into practice. They will show you what people are actually doing to build…
World Chess Champion Garry Kasparov on How to Build Confidence
Garry Kasparov and his long-time rival Anatoly Karpov—two of the greatest chess players of all-time—took their respective seats around the chess board. The 1990 World Chess Championship was about to begin. The two men would play 24 games to decide the champion with the highest scoring player being declared the World Chess Champion. In total, the match would stretch for three months with the first…
When the 80/20 Rule Fails: The Downside of Being Effective
Audrey Hepburn was an icon. Rising to fame in the 1950s, she was one of the greatest actresses of her era. In 1953, Hepburn became the first actress to win an Academy Award, a Golden Globe Award, and a BAFTA Award for a single performance: her leading role in the romantic comedy Roman Holiday. Even today, over half a century later, she remains one of just 15 people to earn an “EGOT” by winning…
Five Nights of Yes, Ma'am is out now!
Happy release day, Theo and Callie! I am so thrilled to share Five Nights of Yes, Ma’am with my readers! I hope you enjoy it! THEO I’ve spent many nights craving the sweet bliss of surrender, but after my last relationship, I swore I’d never let myself be that vulnerable again. The wounds are still fresh. I’d be a fool to hand over my heart—or anything else—again. Callie. One look at her, and my…

The whole length
Well, it’s not the white stuff falling but rain and I’ll take it. Like I said over on Mercy’s instagram, I have a to-do list as long as a monster’s c*ck and by now I’ve drank that first cup of coffee and the next one sat cold. On today’s agenda is reading through the final edit of Five Nights of Yes, Ma’am, the next Mercy Denton book, book three in the Sinful Delights Series. You can pre-order it…

Those who know me well, think that it’s ironic that I wrote a whole series centering the damsel-in-distress-trope, but the thing is? I love this trope. I’m always trying to up the stakes in the suspense plots, to push the boundaries of realism, to make it even harder for my characters to untangle themselves on the way to the HEA When it came to writing Ares and Josie, I wanted to make sure that…

An HEA With A Disability
“It’s simply an accident of birth that I’m not even more important.”- Hyacinth Bucket [Keeping Up Appearances] This snowy Monday morning, I’m thinking about the accident of birth. About taking chances, even so. Keep going when the chips are down, that kind of thing. For no reason at all. This week, with the release of Flame For Keeps, I’m doing something I never thought I’d do. At one point, I…
Almost Book Release Time!
I was trying to be clever and write, “It’s Beginning to Look Like Book Release Time!” but the titling looked strange on the post and I couldn’t quite pull it off. My coffee is cold and I need another sweater on or a blanket, I’m not picky. It started snowing properly and hasn’t stopped and I guess that is right on time and also too late so I can’t really complain…but about the cold? I always…

Two Teasers for this #TeaserTuesday
Is it still fun? Someone asked me if writing books was still fun now that I have ….10 out. Yes! I mean, not very day is perfect and I wish that my backlist was even bigger because apparently I have decided it’s okay to be literary greedy and I struggle with all the things that I have always struggled with and sometimes when that’s in a pool of my peers it makes me feel like I can’t or shouldn’t…
