First Cup of Coffee - February 21, 2025

On the exciting Murderbot adaptation news, less happy ACOTAR adaptation news, and why authors have to expect to give up creative control on these things. Also, why I switched projects and the importance of being honest with ourselves as creators so we can hear our intuition through the emotional jingle-jangle.🎉 GIVEAWAY ALERT! 🎉  Calling all fantasy romance lovers!
