Hey all, Sam here. Well, as I said yesterday, today I'm going to be talking more about my writing plans for the rest of the year. I was an avid participant in NaNoWriMo for years and years, and was an ML for over a decade, but due to a number of issues, I've parted ways… Continue reading Pathfinders Writing Collective (PaWriCo2024)
Hey all, Sam here. We have reached September, and as we get into the fall months (here in the US anyway), I often find myself thinking to writing challenges. I am happy to say that I have found a challenge to fill the void left by NaNoWriMo...and that is Writer's Atelier's Write Brave Challenge. You… Continue reading Weekend Writer: Write Brave Challenge 2024
Hey all, Sam here. I admit that I went into a little bit of a shutdown in the days after Gen Con. Between all the panels, the running around the convention center and Indianapolis in general, and the travel distance....I needed the time to rest, so I let my little blog streak die. And, I'll… Continue reading Weekend Writer: Inspiration from Gen Con Writer’s Symposium
Hey all, Sam here. Hello, hello, and as promised, I am here to give you the wrap-up of all things Gen Con.

Hey all, Sam here. Have you ever wanted to have a creative life but it always feels like there's just something in the way? Because lately I have just felt like writing is such a struggle.

Hey all, Sam here. Once again, we have reached the beginning of a new month, and that means it's time for new Weekend Writer prompts! Eagle-eyed followers will know that this post was supposed to be up yesterday (AKA the first Friday of the month). I blame myself for that; I didn't prepare in advance… Continue reading Weekend Writer: June 2024 Prompts
Hey all, Sam here. It has been a little while since we've had one of these posts, and that's completely on me. I dropped the ball on my Weekend Writer blog posting in the month of May. I've been getting overwhelmed more easily this year, I've noticed, and that sometimes makes keeping up a reading,… Continue reading Weekend Writer: April 2024 Prompt Share
Hey all, Sam here. Okay, so I know that I dropped the ball when it came to my Weekend Writer posts in the month of May. Obviously I didn't manage to get a prompt post created, but I also didn't share my writing from my prompts in April, so I'll share that post next week,… Continue reading Weekend Writer: The Linchpin Writer: Crafting Your Novel’s Key Moments by John Matthew Fox
