Distracts me. Yes, I have been writing a little each day or several times a week. But it’s random scenes and characters that I want to get out of my brain. It is not related to any of my writing/editing goals. It’s not Red Hour, which I really want to get back to but I […]

Can be tricky. I’ve read the writing advice: it’s important to read books in the genre you write in (and outside of it). Of course you grow through actually writing and engaging in peer review, but you can also grow by diving into the work of other writers. The imagination of others can spark new […]

And thanks for all the fish, I mean growth. This year has been incredible. I grew as a writer thanks to my amazing critique group and new author connections.

Should last throughout the year. I try to approach each day with a spirit of gratitude and thanksgiving. Do I always meet that goal? Heck no! But I try. I absolutely say “thank you” dozens of times a day to everyone I come across no matter how big or small their action was. I want […]

So it’s time to take the next step. I spent the past two weeks reading Seeds of Power one more time. I moved some commas and changed a few phrases. That’s it. And yes, I enjoyed reading it! I remember the scenes I’ve cut over the years—some I really liked and some that I’ll be […]

To get back to my writing goals. After a summer writing slump and a very busy start to the school year, I am finally catching my breath and ready to refocus on my creative work. I’m going to read Seeds of Power one more time and edit my drafted query letter. I threw out my […]

And I love where it takes me. I enjoy participating in Instagram bookish challenges, looking at my books in new ways as I try to fit the theme, or thinking carefully as I answer questions about myself or reading habits. I have to write less on social media than my usual writing projects, watching wordcount […]

I’m in a writing slump. For the past two months, I have been editing more than creating new stories. I have a few manuscripts with beta readers so I have to—gasp—wait and put those projects aside. Due to the busy full-time mom and volunteer part of my life, I haven’t had the head space or […]
