We've made it, friends! A season of frenzied writing has come to a close, and as golden days shift to the soft hues of winter, it's time to take a breath and celebrate everything we've accomplished. Who else is in shock that December is here? The final month of 2023, friends! It's mindblowing. But whatever this year looked like for you, please take time to remember everything you did.

Know the Novel – Part Two: Within the WIP // A Writer’s Tag

We've made it to November! And that means Part 2 of the Know the Novel 3-part tag is HERE. Hello, my fellow writers! November is usually a big month in the writing community. Whether you're diving into NaNoWriMo or another writing event today or have reached the halfway point for FicFrenzy (but seriously, how are we halfway there already??), I hope the creativity is flowing, the words are coming, and, most importantly, you're having fun.

Know the Novel – Part One: Introduction // A Writer’s Tag

Happy October, my friends! My favorite time of the year is at last here, and alongside the cooling temperatures and excuses to drink copious amounts of cozy warm drinks comes, for many of us, the season of writing! Fall is renowned (at least amid the writing community) for its great writing challenges—NaNoWriMo, King's Daughter's Writing Camp, Fiction Frenzy, etc. There is just something about the fall weather that brings that itch for writing. As such, six years ago I created a 3-part tag that offers the community a chance to invite their readership into the writing process and take a…

DECEMBER HAS ARRIVED! And my excitement knows no bounds. Not only is this one of the best months of the year, but it also means I can take a nap words have been written. No matter what fall looked like for you, I do hope you take a moment to reflect on everything you accomplished. Every effort you put into writing that story in your heart matters. Every single word adds up. Every moment spent in your creative pursuits builds that muscle and grows you. And it all deserves to be celebrated. Part 3 of Know the Novel is about…

Know the Novel – Part Two: Within the WIP // A Writer’s Linkup

A most happy November 1st to you all! November means so many exciting things, two of which include: Writing and Know the Novel Part 2! For many, today marks the beginning of NaNoWriMo and all the writing frenzy that comes with it! For myself, it's the halfway point of FallFicFrenzy, my own little writing challenge (which has also included frenzied writing, thus the name *winks*), and it blows my mind two weeks of mad writing have already taken place! What a wild ride it's been. But worth it every step of the way. Whether you're embarking on a new novel…

The Jolly Genre Jubilee Tag

It's tag time! And this one is about one of my favorite topics: GENRES. So hi yes! Sorry it's been a tad quiet over here. Life has been quite full + I've been trying to prioritize editing, thus I decided to skip posting when I was supposed to a couple of weeks ago. (I do not prioritize my own books nearly enough, so I'm actually proud of myself??) But I am BACK and super excited because I'm about to do a tag that is absolutely brilliant! Okay but confession first: I've been meaning to do this tag since its creation…
