The softest boot camp: My 31-day plan to write (and drink water)
This month’s writing challenge is more complex than many others I’ve attempted. By the end of the month, I hope to have established a routine that improves my health as well as my creative process. And I’ll have a finished draft.
Is “going wide” with only one book worth it?
