Spring Forward
March 20, 2923, marked the first day of Spring, and with that brings new beginnings. A chance to reflect on the goals you’ve set for yourself and see if they need to be altered or adjusted to progress with those goals. I am still struggling with time management, but I’ve set aside an hour each day during the week for writing.
April marks poetry month as well as Camp Nanowrimp, so plenty of opportunities for writing. NaNoWriMo (national writing month) is geared to help authors create a 50,000-word manuscript during the month of April.

After the success of its release I wanted to continue with a different theme, this time paranormal. In this video, you can learn more details about.

Ben Pick is an avid runner who enjoys writing character focused stories in my spare time. I host a youtube channel as Running2Write, where I give questionable writing advice through running metaphors. I’m also a caretaker for questionably the laziest plott hound in the world. I love getting lost in worlds, whether it's the books I read or the games I play. Although I do not have any published works, I am hoping to introduce the world to my new series in 2022.

Nicole and I love sharing our poetry with the writing community, and wanted to share a older video we did where we each read a poem. Birthday Poetry Reading We each have a playlist sharing our poems, hoping to showcase poetry more on YouTube. We hope to bring back The Poet’s Corner, where we showcased published and indie poets and offered critiques as well as educating the community on various poetic topics.
