That Book You Want to Write, Your Middle Finger, and How to Make Them Both Happy
Do you know what it feels like to never settle? Never be able to just put some shit out there for the sake of putting shit out, hitting a deadline, or checking a box? Yeah. Me too. My name is Becky and I am a chronic overachiever. When I do anything, I do it with […]

Because we writers all share the same unending, cavernous, soul-sucking struggles. And because 13 is my favorite number. (I was born on a Friday the 13th.) Here’s what some famous and insanely talented writers say about keeping your writer mojo. Yo… Ray Bradbury In his 2001 keynote address at Point Loma Nazarene University’s Writer’s Symposium […]
