Wool author Hugh Howey says not to even think about success until you've written twenty books.
Ray Bradbury challenged anyone to write fifty-two bad short stories.
The road to being a writer can be pretty bumpy - it's all about learning what it takes to push your craft forward and show up every day.
So let's do it together.
Commit to writing one novel a year.
We'll be right there along with you in our brand new Book-a-Year Project.
We'll cheer you on, share resources weekly, encouragement and accountability daily, plan our success live with you monthly...
And move from wanting to be writers to actually BEING writers.
In BYP, you'll get access to:
✅ A resource packed weekly newsletter in your inbox every Monday.
✅ Daily accountability emails and prompts.
✅ A community word counter/writing habit tracker.
✅ A private Facebook Group with writers all working towards the same goal of becoming every-day writers.
✅ Our monthly book club - we read and discuss trending fiction novels as writers. We meet live the last Saturday of the month at 8pm EST.
✅ A live monthly Plan-With-Me call on the last Friday of the month at 8pm EST.
What's the outcome?
The official goal is to write one novel a year, and one 1000 word short story a month...
An achievable combination of that advice from Hugh Howey and Ray Bradbury mentioned above.
But most important. the end result of BYP is that you'll do whatever you need to do to show up for your writing every day.
Whatever that looks like for you.
It's ambitious, but we know with accountability and community support, we've got this!
