Writer. Dog enthusiast. Velociraptor masquerading as a human female.
I've just wrapped up Week 2 of my September Submission Challenge, where I challenge myself to submit 30 times in 30 days.

Sometimes I read a book that makes me either want to quit writing altogether or makes me want to push myself to be a better writer, to put more depth into my research, to really drill down into each word I write in order to avoid cliches.

As always, not all of these books were published in 2023, but... Continue Reading →
