November 8, 2019

With November in full swing, so too is National Novel Writer’s Month (NaNoWriMo). If you are unfamiliar with NaNoWriMo, it is an annual challenge to write a 50,000-word novelette in 30 days.

It has been less than 6 months since I began this journey, and started writing full-time. While I have been writing for most of life, writing full-time as my job is relatively new to me.

Am I Writing for Me or Am I Writing for You?

August 30, 2019

Am I Writing for You or Am I Writing for Me? The short answer is YES Writing is as essential to me as breathing. Once I begin to put my thoughts down, my attention tends to hold to this one place, and the rest of the world fades away. It doesn’t matter if I am working on fiction or nonfiction, writing is my heart and soul. When I finally sat down and looked to discover
