TWO YEARS AGO TODAY: Trapped by the protests in Peru, we took refuge in the sanctuary where we stayed - which even included a playground!
#WritingCommunity - has anyone used a trap to make your MCs more comfortable? It was a refuge with an expiration date.

โEverything will kill you so choose something fun.โ
Back-to-back meetings today will be fun, right?! Right??!
Two years ago, we boarded a train to Machu Picchu that never came back. What followed challenged me, rebuilt me, and forever changed how I view the world. The story lingers in me, demanding to be told.
Writers, ever had a moment that wonโt let go?

You will do readings where no one shows up. You will set up at events and sell no books. Rejection will show up in your inbox again and again. You will say โI wrote a book!โ and folks will stay quiet or say โCool!โ and then not buy it. Itโs all good. Part of the gig. KEEP AT IT.
