I forgot to mention in yesterday’s short update that I had a guest post on my friend Erin’s blog Dropped Stitches. Obviously, I would love for you to go and read my post, but I also recommend looking around the entire site. Erin has spent the past month trying to bring more focus and [...]

This time last month, I was struggling to hit 400 followers on Twitter and barely holding on to a Klout score of 49.

English Teacher Harassed For Being Erotica Author Judy Buranich has been an English teacher in the Midd-West School District of Pennsylvania for 33 years.

Cover via Amazon When I’m at work, I listen to a lot of podcasts. One of my favorites is Mur Lafferty‘s I Should Be Writing. Lately, Mur has gone out of her way to commend a book and, for lack of a better word, course called The Artist’s Way. The course is [...]
