Our hearts go out to all of our writers and readers who are having a difficult time from the blackouts in Texas! Stay safe, and hopefully, the lights will come back on soon. 🙏

With all this snow who is excited for March?

There is a lot of pressure to write every day, but that's not attainable. Like all things, you need to pause and take a break from it. Your WIP can't exist unless you are well taken care of. (But also relaxing doesn't need to be tied to productivity)

Take a break today wiether you "desrve" it or not.
