Sorry for not posting after I got back from vacation. I’ve been running around trying to catch up on everything. But now I’m close enough I can return to the blog.

Here’s a small update / things you can look forward to:

  • My first giveaway! I want to do a survey to figure out how best to improve my blog and its content. If you answer some silly questions, you’ll be entered to win a free book!
  • A Hawaii-inspired post. A new writing method I’m trying that’s actually working. And…My Little Pony?
  • My word count for Narrator and Fragment of the Moon is slowly leaping forward. I haven’t updated my progress bars because the former is counting by chapters and the latter is hand-written. But take my word for it: I’m on fire! (slow burn, anyway)

See you on Wednesday!

    Hi, I'm Jenn, new grad student and old YA fantasy writer. I've long dreamed of being a novelist, and I bet you have too. I hope you find my blog helpful, inspiring, and maybe just a little bit fun. (But not too much fun. Writing is serious business, you know.)
