Second Monday means second person!
Hello, Write Edge readers! As I announced last week, in 2023 I’m going to push myself to try new things in my writing. While I’ve written a few pieces in second person before, I thought it might be an interesting challenge to spend every second Monday of the month this year doing even more of it.
I have to admit, this makes me think of writing and stories in a way that I’m not used to. My brain was getting more into a literary fiction kind of feel with this one, and I’ve posted this year’s first attempt at writing in second person. Here’s an excerpt:
I run my fingers over boxes in the cookie aisle now, thinking of that salty-sweet combination. Thinking of you. You were right, you know. We do have to balance the salty and sweet.
Check out the whole piece of flash fiction now on The Write Edge Writing Workshop!
In the middle of the week, I’ll share a brand new review with you. The House in the Pines by Ana Reyes released last week, I’ll let you know what I thought of it. Find that review on The Write Edge Bookshelf on Wednesday.
Finally, on Friday it’s back to Instagram posts and more fun with In the Heart of the Linden Wood. Readers are already loving it! Check out this review on The Feathered Quill.
Also, the book officially releases on February 7, 2023, but I have author copies to send anyone who pre-orders this fairy tale for grownups directly from my author website. Go there now to see how to do that!
Stay safe and warm, readers. Have a lovely week!
