📣 My new class on writing routines begins Wednesday, May 7. Sign up. FINDING TIME TO WRITELast week, I had the grand pleasure of teaching the creative writing students at my local arts high school. I started class by asking: “How many of you think it’s easier to write during the school year than it is over the summer?”I had a feeling that every single student would raise their hands. And I was right. That old adage about giving a job to a busy person? It’s even true among teenagers.

A ROUTINE OF ONE’S OWNToday, I am positively thrilled to announce and open enrollment for a brand new three-week class called A Routine of One’s Own. This class will help you define and refine a joyful writing routine: one that actually works for you. Creating this class has been a joy. I’m proud of the writing routine I’ve built and maintained for myself, but it wasn’t easy, and I learned a lot along the way.

HAPPY ALMOST SPRINGHello my honeybees! 🍯 Busy busy over here as I get ready to head to Los Angeles for the AWP Conference with Rose Books & Morning Writing Club. If you’re unfamiliar: AWP is a tremendous writing conference that meets every year in a different city. How tremendous? Around 12,000 writers attend. Some call it overwhelming. I call it pretty stinkin’ fun. But then again, I’m an extrovert who loves being around writers more than almost anything.

Our first night of New Year Writing Nights was on Wednesday. Pam and Shelby both shared that they’re working on novels. Aysha (who designed the Lonely Victories logo!) joined the group to work on her portfolio and take a stab at outlining a screenplay. put in the chat that she’s trying The Artist’s Way. So many projects growing under our digital roof. If you haven’t joined already, we’d love to have you. Many folks arrived to our first session and kicked absolute ass.
