November Writing Challenge

It might seem strange to begin a new book when the first one hasn’t been published yet, but trust me there is a reason for my madness. As I’ve been going through the process of querying agents I’ve heard the same advice over and over. Don’t stop writing. This makes sense to me because writing is the part of this whole adventure that really feeds me. The business end of things is not my cup of tea, and so if I can balance that out with some writing every day I think that would be healthy. Of course, I never really stopped writing because I write here and on Substack, it’s just a different kind of writing.

My plan is to participate in the Reedsy November Writing Challenge. I will be aiming for 50,000 words by the end of the month. The working title of my new project is called, A Spiritual Home. It will be another memoir, and very different from the one I am currently seeking representation for. It’s still vulnerable work and I will have to dig deep into my bravery stores in order to complete it. Wish me luck! If you want to join me in the writing challenge, drop me an email and I will help you get started.
