Did you know Moms Who Write was on TikTok? That’s right– some of our members are officially TikTok authors, and we are having a blast with it.
Maybe you’ve seen our faces floating around your feed. It took us a while to give in—after all, we are writers, not actresses. We write behind the scenes and typically don’t enjoy putting our faces on camera.
But here were are! We love to make you laugh, cry, and inspire you to keep working towards your book dreams. Meet some of our TikTok authors and see why we love them.
