☕ We’ve hit that point in Preptober where the excitement of a new story starts colliding with the reality of, well… real life. The notebooks are cluttered, my plotting playlist is looping the same three songs, and I’ve already had to rewrite the plot of Act Two twice. But that’s how I know I’m…
☕✨ The notebooks are filling fast, and the playlist is dangerously long, so you know that means the characters have arrived. This Preptober, I’m not prepping this year’s Christmas story (that one’s already written and heading into edits before its December release).

Hey everyone, today I want to chat about what I have in my NaNoWriMo survival kit, I also want to chat about rewards. I’m really big on giving myself rewards for reaching each milestone during NaNo. It’s something that really keeps me going. This year isn’t any different, I have purchased several smaller type rewards…
