Starting a new month…

Hello, Write Edge readers. It’s the start of a new month and the continuation of my new “normal” without my dad.

When this year started, I decided my entire year’s worth of workshop writing to haiku in order to find a way to express myself in the simplest, most compressed way possible. My short stories and the articles I write for my day job typically run a little longer than usual, but I’ve been really enjoying the challenge of using the fewest syllables to share my biggest feelings. Check out my latest attempt on The Write Edge Writing Workshop now.

On Wednesday, I’ll share with you my latest book review that I teased this past week in my #bookreviewpreview. Tomorrow is release day for Lindsay Currie’s middle grade novel The Mystery of Locked Rooms. Find out what I thought of it on Wednesday on The Write Edge Bookshelf.

At the end of the week, of course, I’ll take you back to Instagram. I’ve decided to be a little more intentional with that platform to reinforce my author brand of being a Reviewer, Editor, Author, and Dreamer of stories and books. Sometimes what I post my fit a little more loosely into those categories, but I hope to make it more apparent to all of you just how each of these four roles really do fill out my days at my desk.

Thank you, as always, readers, for your continued support and interest in my little corner of the web. I hope you have a good week, and, as always, tell a loved one you care about them (hug them if you can.) Life is too short not to.

E.R.G.
