Day 29: #whyshewrites
What is your writing goal this year? At the beginning of the year, I avoided publicly sharing any goals for this year so that I did not feel disappointed by the end of it. 😅 Also, that way no one could point out if I missed something – not that anyone keeps track of my…

Day 28: #whyshewrites
If you had one writer wish, what would it be? I’m not quite sure how to answer this, but I suppose I can interpret it however I like. My wish for my writing is to touch people. Whether it is to make them laugh 😂, ponder 🤔 the world 🌎, feel angry 😡 at a…

Day 24: #whyshewrites
Post a picture of your favorite notebook Rather than the notebook itself, I’ve shown my leather cover, which was a bit of a splurge from one of my favorite stationery stores in Tokyo. However, the red makes me happy 😃 to write in each day. Recently, I’ve been migrating to a bullet journal style of…

Day 23: #whyshewrites
Share a story you wish you had written I’m not actually sure what this prompt is asking. Is it asking for a story that is mine which I have not yet written, but wish I had? Is it asking for a story that is published that I wish I had written and published myself? If…

Writer’s Dread
Before the #whyshewrites challenge, I hadn’t written in quite some time on here and I began processing why this might be. There are times when I wonder how writers can write about their lives and inevitably those in it without offending others or making people they know feel concerned that they might be in someone’s…
