The illogical writers pull to start a new WIP when your “real-life” to-do list is already six miles long
Happy MLK day, #WritingCommunity! Hoping everyone’s days are filled with words and thoughts of reflection ✍️
Hopeful logic: Wednesday is basically the end of the week because there's only one day separating us and Friday, and Friday is technically the start of the weekend... right?

Incapable of wielding true magic, inept Mage Naivra unearths a clue to the Queens suicide. The cause: soul-devouring magic capable of consuming humanity if left unchecked. Magic that she must sever before it does. Magic that nearly devoured Naivra once before. #pitmad #YA #F
