Hello There!
Welcome to my tiny, but cozy, corner of the world.
It’s so good to see you!
This month’s newsletter is for all things book-ish, nerd-ish, life-ish and whatever else may have popped into my head.
Stay Weird! 🤟🏼

Monthly Writing Tip 📝
Is anyone else as OBSESSED with journals as I am? I am constantly seeing them at the store and thinking…OOOOO. I NEED this…when truly, I have a large stockpile of journals just waiting to be filled.
I have a journal for EVERY book I work on, as well as a journal I designate as my “AUTHOR BIBLE” every year.
It helps me keep track of:
✔️ Monthly Writing Goals
✔️ Story Storm Ideas
✔️ First Draft Friday notes
✔️ Contests
✔️ and MORE!
I personalize each notebook with cute stickers (ahem…my other big OBSESSION) which just flat out makes my soul happy.
Here is a sneak peak at some of my most important journals right now:
Here is this year’s AUTHOR BIBLE:

What about you? Do you have a (healthy!) obsession with journals too? 😉 😜 😘
