It has been such a pleasure enjoying the writing community with you all \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>This summer I wrote a new young adult story that I am currently editing and having beta&#8217;s weigh in on. It&#8217;s a male pov\u00a0(lukewarm) scifi\u00a0and I am enjoying the process very much! I&#8217;m also working on an R&amp;R for my former wip, a YA Alt History. On top of that, I&#8217;m brainstorming a brand new wip\u00a0idea that&#8217;s sort of a\u00a0fairytale retelling smashed together with a revenge western lol Writing spec fic allows for a great variety of stories, as you can tell!<\/p>\n<p>Outside of the writing world, I have had a very exciting and busy year at work. As of the new year, I&#8217;ll be adding more hours and working full-time! I couldn&#8217;t be more thrilled! While this is great news for my marketing career and my wallet, it&#8217;s not so great news for my blog. The free time that I have now primarily goes to my stories, but since I&#8217;ve had Friday&#8217;s off, I&#8217;ve been able to continue to blog and stay involved with this platform. However, in the new year, I must devote all my free time to writing and as such, my blog will not be updated as frequently.<\/p>\n<p>As I said before, I have been delighted to share my thoughts on writing whenever I can with you all. I&#8217;ve also loved hearing your responses and opinions about the writing process, self-publishing, agents, querying, having mental breakdowns&#8211; the whole bunch has been much fun. And I&#8217;ll continue post when I have a thought or review I must share. So fear not, I won&#8217;t disappear completely. Stick with me and I&#8217;ll read you around \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hey Gang!
