All about Annie

Hi! I’m Annie

What do you want to know?

I’m a senior exec at a tech startup, a reader, a gamer, and a mom of two.

I believe that reading really great fantasy is good for you. It can change your brain chemistry. And, I love that the fantasy genre is growing and changing and reaching more people now vs. when I was a kid.

I’m setting off on this project, my writing journey, with lots of emotions. I’m nervous, but I’m also hopeful. Because even if I write some truly epic garbage, I think I’ll learn a lot and have fun. And hopefully meet new friends along the way.

I’m on Instagram @bookswithloveandmagic and I have a newsletter. Appreciate the follow!

You can find me on Instagram, but I’d rather not be 100% beholden to our social media overlords.
I started this email list to build a community and keep in touch with folks directly.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What book did you write?

I haven’t published my book yet. I’m in the process of writing it! It’s a gamelit novel with a female protagonist. Let’s get in touch, and I’ll tell you all about it!

3. What’s your take on AI?

I love AI. I use Claude every day as a brainstorm partner and to speed up my work. But, I never ask AI to write for me. All my words are my own.

2. Why do you have an email list?

I’m most active on Instagram, but I’m not totally comfortable with Meta owning my whole contact list. By building an email list of my own, I can communicate directly with my community and share early drafts of my book, etc.

4. Is a taco a sandwich?

No. Stop it.
