Did I have 3 journals open in my lap the other day? Why yes I did. I normally only have 2 journals at a time (my bujo & my writing journal) but I’ve started plotting a new idea… & it needs its own journal! 😅🙌
Can’t wait to share more about it with you when it’s ready!

I launched my in-person journaling workshop today!
We’re harnessing the power of journaling to unlock our voices & stories. Week 1 was all about different ways to journal that I have personally used many, many times over the years.

Why yes, I did write an editorial letter to myself.
Before I dive into developmental edits for my own NA contemp book, I wrote a letter similar to the ones I write for my clients. I always start off with what I like about a manuscript, and, not gonna lie, it felt pretty nice to compliment myself!

I filled six journals in 2025… And most days? I only wrote in these journals for 15 minutes a day! (With the occasional late night hour-plus sprint).
Do you journal? Why or why not?

What am I doing over “winter break”? Reading through my New Adult contemporary manuscript and writing myself an editorial letter!

I wrote something deeply personal recently… & I don’t know if I’ll ever publish it. But as soon as I wrote it down, I stepped away. Sometimes, you just need a place to let the words out, let them exist, & then you can step away and move on to the next thing. And all of that is 100% okay. #WriteSky

I was in middle school. My mom signed me up for a workshop organized by the local arts council. I figured it would be like my 3rd-grade ‘writing workshop,’ but then I learned it was led by a published author—a real, live author. It felt surreal to learn from someone who had published a book.

I may have written this six years ago, but I think it’s a reminder worth repeating, especially in this crazy busy holiday season.

I wasn’t a fan of the painting/drawing that I did… so I wrote a poem over it. 💖
She looked to the sky
She let her words float away.
But then she wondered
what would happen
instead…
if she wrote them on the sky.

Waiting,

Until the perfect moment,

Every day she woke up
And did the same exact things, again
Still expecting to change.
Then one day she said,
No more. She trusted herself,
And she began to blossom. 🌸

Taking some time today (and every day) to squeeze in some time to write, reflect, find my voice, & work on being fearless.

My short story in this collection was one of my all-time favorites to write, probably because it was inspired by a trip my family took to the Oregon coast, where we witnessed the minus tide. amzn.to/454v4XB

For those of you, like me, who are feeling the overwhelm… here’s how to find your focus.
We all have a part to play right now. Focus on the things you CAN do, and not on the things currently out of your control.
