I love love, you guys, so I wanted to offer something really special for Valentine’s day! Half off my commission prices!! This includes Mini Commissions, Standard, and Packages! I’m only offering this for two weeks, so get it before it’s gone!

….I’m also going to ignore the heart attack I got from a picture falling in my room just now 😭

Much love,

Guys, guys, guys!
I don’t have any exciting freelancing news, but I do have an announcement! I got a job working full-time for Members 1st Federal Credit Union! I’m not sure how much I can say about my job, but it does mean I’ll be less active on socials compared to before. You’ll mostly see me in the evenings or in the really early morning before my commute. I’m not disappearing for good, I am still accepting commissions, it’s just going to be a little more quiet the majority of the day. Thank you all for your continued support and hopefully I’ll have something exciting to share soon!
Much love,
Olivia 💜🌹

Much love,

I’m gonna leave this here and say that anyone who is under 18 cannot, CANNOT, commission adult-only content! I know it’s an issue for other writers in the genre so I am nipping it in the bud. Adults, feel free to commission multiple stories from me. I may send cookies to you as thanks.

Much love,

Olivia 💜🌹

Okay, this is really soon after my last post but I asked it on my social media and just had to get feedback here too. What are your thoughts on vampires and, specifically, their fangs?
As you’ve probably seen from my excerpts page, I’m working on a vampire story called Vampyres Across Time. I’m very excited for it and have put a lot of research into it and that research continues. This includes how I want to portray my vampires.
So, what this means is I’m getting scientific. I don’t want people getting confused as to how my vampires drink blood or anything like that, so I want to know. Biologists, cryptozoologists, and fellow weirdos, how would vampire fangs work for you?
On Instagram, my brother had a very good idea, but I want to collect more to decide where I want to take it. Right now I’m liking his because it’s very similar to the vampire bat, named due to their diet of blood. So take that as you will, look them up because they’re awesome little creatures, and let me know what you think in the comments!
Much love,
Olivia

You guys, I think the best Christmas present is so many people viewing my site 🥺😭 I’m so grateful for each visitor I get. Even if I don’t get a commission, every visitor means that I’m being seen and brings me one step closer to finding that perfect client. I don’t post a lot on the blog here and I do apologize for that, but absolutely feel free to follow me on social media or, if you’d like to see something else become of this blog, send me an email with suggestions!
In the meantime, my holiday special is currently running for 3 more days! It’s going to run until midnight on December 24th, which is this Friday. Get your commission at a discounted price or be doomed to wait another year (or pay full price 😱)! Thank you guys again, seriously, y’all are amazing.
Much, much, MUCH love,
Olivia

Sup, guys! I’m back, sorry I haven’t posted in a while, but I have news! My holiday special is running until Christmas Eve, December 24th. You can get 30% off of my commission packages and 15% off of regular commissions. Hop on over to my Linktree or send me an email to talk commissions!
I also made the second episode of my podcast, Rose Petal Musings! You can find it on Anchor.fm, Spotify, and YouTube. This episode talks about writing and music and features my friend Hannah Middaugh! Give it a listen, send one of us (or both of us!) a commission, and don’t forget to have an awesome holiday season.
Much love,
Olivia

You guys!! I am so excited to announce that I have officially put out a podcast on Anchor and Spotify called Rose Petal Musings! You can also find episodes on YouTube. I plan on discussing all things writing. How to get started, how to get inspired, and how to publish! Check it out, give it a listen, and let me know what you think!
Much love,
Olivia

Hey, all! I’m very excited to announce that I have had my FIRST ever commission from Step Zero Creations! I wrote a template for my friend Ian’s product descriptions for SZC’s Etsy shop and it was a fantastic time for all! I’m THRILLED that he also left a review, which you’ll find below with the other review from Paige! Check it out and maybe consider hiring me for your next writing project!
Much love,

Oh? What’s this? Yes! I updated my website yesterday. Sorry about jumbling everything around and changing some colors, except I’m not because I’m super proud of it. It took me like three hours of fine-tuning guys please…
For real though, thank you guys for the support and love I’ve gotten thus far! It means the world to me whenever I get a new follower, a new like, or a new comment. It means I’m being seen and, as a freelance writer, that is SO important. I don’t want to spam people with ads because honestly, who really follows/listens to those anymore? It sucks and it costs money, more than I’m willing to spend right now. So thank you, any and every one of you that reads this. That takes the time to even look at my website. I love and appreciate every single one of you and you make me do a happy dance.
Much, much, MUCH love,
Olivia 💜🌹

So! I haven’t posted an update in a while; the full-time job search has been rough. I am happy to have remained active on social media though, so if you haven’t gone to see me on social media I highly recommend!
Now, onto the exciting news: I have a YouTube channel! I’ll be adding that button ASAP to the home page as well as on my tree of links so you guys can find me, but I have a short introductory video up for you guys to see! Check it out, see what you think, and maybe drop a comment for video suggestions!
Much love,
Olivia

You may have noticed that I have updated the main page. That’s because I made a new page for the website! There is now a dedicated space for my writing excerpts for you to peruse. If there are any suggestions for other examples you would like to see, please leave a comment or email me. I would love to hear from you!
Much love,
Olivia

Well heck! I added myself on Thervo to try and get more traffic for commissions. I did not get a commission yet, but I was already selected as the Best of Thervo for 2021! You can see the badge displayed at the bottom of my page and yes, I will proudly display it til the day I die because I’m absolutely honored. So yes, please commission me because I would love to write for you and continue to defend my title as the best writer in my area for 2022 and onward.
Much love,
Olivia

Update on the linktree guys! I am now offering mini commissions, which can be directly paid through the linktree via PayPal! These are much smaller than my commission packages but that comes with the bonus of being cheaper overall. You can find my linktree on my socials, or you can fill out the contact form (follow the menu at the top of the page) to request a commission, mini or one of my packages. I hope to hear from you soon!
Much love,
Olivia

So! I now have a Linktree in my social bios and I posted something on Archive of Our Own! It’s called Mundane Magick and follows our as-of-now unnamed protagonist who steals back artifacts for a living. There is a reason I spell Magick that way in the title and spell it magic in the first chapter. I differentiate old and new magic with the “k,” the more letters the older it is basically. I’m really excited for people to read it and let me know what they think! I’ve still got the epic I’m working on, Vampyres Across Time (also a purpose with the “y” instead of “i,” similar reasoning) but since I want that to go to print and it is a longer work, that will take much longer! I’ll continue to post periodic updates/excerpts on it as little teasers, as well as some of my other works, but go ahead and give Mundane Magick a read! I look forward to reading your comments!
Much love,
Olivia
