I bought this one for myself. After reading it and using all the suggestions to fix my own POV problems, I recommended it to a fellow author who had serious head-hopping issues. Thanks for educating us! 📚

i love these cartoon panels - they are hilarious and spot on!!! and it's nice to know that my writing anxieties are common enough that you can make a meme out of them. 😣📚 you should publish these together in a book!

To AT Class of 2025
I send you my most heartfelt congrats for every step you’ve taken. Each footfall is a triumph, and you know that. Whether 1 night, 1 state, 547 miles, GA-ME, I hope your communion among trees and dirt settled your soul.
Revel in the peace of the AT! #hiking #AT2025 #thruhiking

Out here trying to be a writer. Some days, feeling undeserving of any recognition; but mostly, just glad I'm making my mom proud. #learningfromeachother #alwaysopentocorrection

Out here trying to be a writer.
Some days, I'm all 'impostor syndrome,'
and some days, I'm wondering when Oprah will call.

Every time I mention the Olympics to someone, the inevitable question comes: “What’s your favorite sport?” While I do have my preferences, I never say. Instead, I step up onto my soap box, clear my throat, and deliver the following soliloquy.

Morning! I'm writing a story in 1st-person with a male protagonist. It's a struggle to stay on target. I see lots of male beta readers and many rounds of editing in my future! What are you wrestling with?
