Notes from a Work-in-Progress Writer

is my bi-weekly newsletter for writers, artists, and other creatives coming up in the world who are navigating the real, raw, and rewarding parts of the creative process.

This isn’t a newsletter from someone who has books on the New York Times best sellers list, teaches at illustrious universities, and is your favorite author’s favorite author—not yet at least 😉! I’m an emerging writer, plotting my rising action and sharing what I’m learning and thinking along the way: wins, struggles, breakthroughs—all honest and unfiltered.

So, whether you’re feeling in a flow state, stuck, or somewhere in between, I hope this space meets you where you are. Because I’m in these trenches with you.

What You’ll Get in This Newsletter:

💭 Thoughts and reflections on writing, fiction, publishing, and creativity

👍 Encouragement and inspiration

✨ Writing tips, resources, and prompts

If you’re a writer, artist, or another creative craving real talk about the process—not just the polished results—you’re in the right place. Real recognizes real.
