Margin Notes: Bookish Catch Up

We’re catching up for the first time in months and trading the curated feed for the full picture—Sicily’s stunning balconies and overflowing bins, the bliss of a 10-person dinner over a dance floor, and the $400 logo lesson that pushed us to own our brand instead of renting one.

Then we go inside the platforms: shifting Instagram aesthetics, making your own handwriting into a font, and choosing to treat the grid like a scrapbook instead of a scoreboard. On TikTok, the plan is simple and hard—post three times a day through year’s end, lead with value (recs, “if you like this show, read this”), and let small wins stack. The theme underneath it all is fit: smaller weddings, tighter formats, clearer promises, warmer colors, and a voice that sounds like you even when you’re nervous. That’s how you build something you can keep.

If this resonates, follow along for more romance chats, book-to-screen breakdowns, and creator behind-the-scenes. Subscribe, share with a friend who loves spicy books, and leave a quick review to help more readers find us.
