“I thought they were icky and gross, like the vegetable version of a corpse. Don’t believe me? It’s wrinkly and embalmed. Need I say more? 

I am thinking about how much I hate pickles because my least favorite person on the planet, Alec Harrison, is currently munching on the world’s fattest pickle across from me at the lunch table and is making no effort to contain the splatter.” 

–It Comes With a Pickle, my debut novel. 

I want more female protagonists that are confident in their looks and personality.

I also want more female protagonists with more experience in relationships and sex.

Write the story you want to write, no matter how cliché or overdone of a concept it might be. You are allowed to write your story, even if it's filled with billions of things we've already seen before.

As long as you enjoy what you're doing, and you're passionate and excited about your project, that's what matters.

Your plot twists will always feel predictable, because you created them.

Your stories will always feel a bit boring to you, because you read them a million times.

I am so excited to finally announce the title of my book!! 

I started writing this book with a prompt that was about pickles. And over time I don’t know, the importance of pickles in the story kinda grew bigger and bigger until it became an overarching motif in the story. 

I chose the title because it kinda feels like a warning that someone should give you when you order food, because the pickle juice gets all over everywhere and ruins the other things, especially if it’s right next to bread. And like half of the people I know don’t eat them anyway, so if there was a warnig then you could ask for the m taken off…

I will argue that he was just as if not more on theme than her. He’s so far one of only a few men to actually wear a period appropriate suit that is to the dress code required!!

White tie events are the most formal events in Western/British culture and you bet ur ass the Met Gala is a white tie event— yet men rarely dress to this level because it isn’t what the general public wants or is aware of.

Not only that but his suit is mid-gilded age. The styling of the waistcoat with the pocket watch, the lapel and shoulder cut, the only modern aspects of it are the collar of his shirt and the lack of buttons on his jacket (but then again he’s allowed some personal taste).

In accordance with white tie formal, his suit is black but the material adds even more glamour, black velvet. Most men do just the front of the jacket and some silk or wool on the back/lapel with maybe their pants being the same (often cheaper). But his WHOLE SUIT is black velvet. Of course this prevents a nice front pleat that’s common in white tie suits, but due to the luxurious nature of velvet it is worth it because it comes off as even more extravagant and tasteful, a seamless transition from top to bottom (which a lot of suits struggle with)

And finally, a semi gloss black saddle boot with a tasteful gold wrist watch add enough luxury in a whispering way— making a lovely contrast to Blakes outfit.
