“I don’t know how I knew it was time.”
That is the first sentence of my first published story, ‘Manifest,’ which I posted on The Prose for a competition on June 12th, 2022. I didn’t mean for it to relate to my own writing career but it ended up working out that way. I don’t know how I knew it was time to get myself out there, but the prompt for that month simply hit in a way that gave me the energy to dive in and chase this crazy dream of being an author.
And now a year later I’m a published author with eight stories under my belt, spread across Kindle and my website! The end goal of being a successful author is still far down the line but the journey is well under way and I’m excited to take it.
To celebrate a year of publishing I’m going to be reading one of my stories live on Instagram on June 12th: The time, and the story I’ll be reading, are both TBD, but I’d love for all of you to come join me in celebrating this huge milestone!
If you’re not on Instagram and are still interested in hearing me read something, I’m also planning on doing a second stream on Twitch the day after (the 13th), and I’ll have more details on that soon.
Thank you to all of you readers and authors who’s encouragement and support has helped me reach this awesome milestone in my career!
