✍️ Tip Tuesday: Author Edition

“How do you juggle writing a whole sports romance universe without losing your mind?”
One word: Spreadsheets.
(Okay, that and a deeply unhealthy amount of caffeine.)

Here’s what keeps the chaos under control:

📅 Master Timeline – Tracks every release, from core novels to WAGling novellas
👩‍💻 Character Bible – Backstories, quirks, injuries, tattoos, trauma... and who’s secretly hoarding cupcakes
📌 Crossover Map – Who appears where, who’s related, and who still refuses to be friends with Dean
📓 Subplot Tracker – Ensures no baby, breakup, or band tour falls through the cracks
🏈 Mascot Lore Sheet – Yes, even the mascots have backstories. And grudges.

Writing a universe isn’t about being perfect. It’s about remembering what the hell you named that twin three books ago and making sure Penalty Pete’s feuds stay consistently unhinged.
