Day 1 (late 😅)
Hey y'all! I'm Annalise, and I write YA and adult fantasy/horror. I'm really into mythology, witches, fae, eldritch abominations, and I'm also an illustrator! I'm crossing my fingers that I'll be ready to submit to PW this year but we'll see 🙈🤞🏻

Just started BRAZEN AND THE BEAST by Sarah Maclean. Loving it so far!

Also just started BUNNY by Mona Awad and I can't stop thinking about it. Wow!

There are FAR too many books I loved and was moved by to list, but one I can actually say changed my world-view was The Giver. I read it in grade 6, and it was the first time I was (powerfully) aware of freedom of choice, privilege, the power of knowledge.
