introduction
about me
Hi! I'm starting this blog so I can track and share my writing progress. I'm looking to meet other writers and become more a part of the writing community.
I'm 24 and a teacher so summer is the best time for me to really write all day.
Outside of reading novels, I love watching movies and reading comics.
My favorite book of all time is A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini and as of 6/17/23, I am currently reading A Game of Thrones by George RR Martin.
about my writing
I have always enjoyed writing, even as a child. Now, I just feel like I want to do more. Growing up, I didn't have a lot of stories about people like me so my goal is to create engaging and memorable stories with well-written black and poc, LGBTQ/queer, and female characters.
Some of my favorite tropes are rivals/enemies to lovers, antihero protagonists, quests and prophecies, and the Amazon Brigade.
Right now, I am working on a fantasy novel. I've written one before, but things just didn't work out the way I wanted, so this is my fresh start. I'm about 54k words into this novel and my goal is 80-90k.
Update Jan 22, 2025: I am on my second draft of WotG (TLBH). 78k/110k of the way through. Most of my posts will be about this second draft.
Like I said, I'm open to talking with and meeting new people. I'm down to beta your WIPs and share ideas and tips. Thanks for reading!
