“I’d love to chat with any fellow WLT writers to help share your stories!”
“…[T]he only requirement for joining the board is a desire to support other writers, so I was in!“
“…I love writing and being creative and I’m grateful to be able to have time to write and to have a job where I get to work with writers all day”
“There are rumors that I am published under a pen name, but… that is pure fiction.”
“With the pandemic and all the suffering and stress of jobs and school and injustice, I think Jane Austen is a much-needed temporary escape these days.”
“I hope my presence on the board helps the WLT reach out to those writers in their early twenties looking for a place to find advice and encouragement.”
“When we moved to Texas from Mississippi, I searched for ‘my people.’ I found them at the Writer’s League of Texas.”
“[W]hat pleases me most is when people I don’t know write that they loved the characters and can’t wait for the next book.”
“I’ve been practicing gratitude lately so all I say is that I’m grateful for my next step. I know something good is coming.”
