Journaling with your kids

January 7, 2022January 7, 2022 by Emmy Seal

Sometimes life is a lot, right? Journaling has been a way I have been able to cope with that. I find comfort in spilling my deepest thoughts on paper. When things are out of my control, I love getting lost in a fictional world I have created, while letting this world fade away for a…

Why writing shorter pieces brings big success

December 29, 2021December 29, 2021 by Shell Sherwood

As a writer, publishing a finished piece of work is the ultimate goal. A feeling of ecstasy and accomplishment. It’s an intrinsic sensation of achievement unlike any other emotion you’ll experience in your writing journey. But when you don’t finish something– when none of your projects are near publication quality and you’re constantly stuck in…

For the Writer Who Isn’t Writing

December 3, 2021December 3, 2021 by Kathryn Tamburri

I took more than two years off writing around the time I met my husband. As writers, we have busy seasons. Sometimes, we have to shuffle priorities. It doesn’t mean our writing is any less important than it’s always been—but sometimes, something else is just more time-sensitive. Like planning a wedding. Like setting up a…

The Challenges of Writing A Poetry Book

October 13, 2021October 13, 2021 by Shell Sherwood

Writing a poetry book is not as glamorous as I anticipated it to be. I’ve been writing poetry for decades, verses jotted down when emotions run too high. Poetry comes to me in fits of rage, holes of depression, fleeting moments of lust, times of loss, sorrow, self-reflection. Most of the time, inspiration comes during…

The Done List: Recording your wins

October 9, 2021December 10, 2021 by Allie Gravitt

Honestly, a lot of times, the Done List looks different than my mental To Do list that I had in the morning, but that’s okay. As a result, I put words on paper, stop the self flagellation (okay, at least mitigate it a bit), and appreciate the addition to my day.

Other authors are not your competition!

August 10, 2021August 10, 2021 by Storm Shultz

Something that I see a lot in online groups (mostly Facebook) is someone saying “I just found out that my book is almost the same as this book/movie! What do I do?” And I’m here to tell you…nothing. Stay your course Just keep doing what you were doing before. Because here’s the thing…you’re going to…

My first experience with an editor

July 21, 2021July 20, 2021 by Shell Sherwood

The day had come! It was finally that time in my writing journey where I was thinking about querying my book. There was just one more step before I was officially ready: hiring a professional editor. I assumed there would be some suggestions, a few critiques that could easily be fixed. But I never figured…

Moms–Your dreams are important too

June 30, 2021June 29, 2021 by Emmy Seal

Moms Who Write don’t just wake up one day and say, Hey…I’m going to be a writer! For most of us, these dreams are seeded almost before we can speak. So why now? Because moms have dreams too– and they are important. I have always had stories running through my head, but it wasn’t until…

To Work or To Write…That Is The Question.

June 25, 2021June 25, 2021 by Shell Sherwood

So many Moms Who Write have occupations outside of writing. Some may continue to write for work, creating content or blogs for business purposes. Most, however, tend to work entirely outside of the field. Their job requirements range; full-time, part-time, remote, in-person, freelance, per diem, on-call. Yet, regardless of what these jobs look like, they…
