Writing progress update: Chaos Witch

November 18, 2018

I’d given up on this one months ago. A fantasy story about a witch struggling to keep their grimoire in order because of their ADD.

I returned to it with fresh eyes and feeling a little better about it… Read More Writing progress update: Chaos Witch

Best thing about keeping track of my own writing progress is noticing the improvements in my craft.

Love Potion is a… Read More Writing progress update: Love Potion
