Now, I’m both a notebook hoarder and a notebook user. I actually have more used notebooks in this house than I have unused ones, which is a feat, but I’ve also reached the point where I’ve been holding on to som...

I am so excited to announce that I am now selling The Curse of Broken Shadows audiobook direct! If you’ve been eyeing that audiobook but prefer not to use audible, you can now snag this for only $20 instead of the ~27 on audible and I don’t get gouged with how much Amazon takes in fees.

My Passion Planner 2024 - Set Up For Success
I know y’all sometimes get glimpses of my planner over on Instagram, but I thought I’d do a bit of a gallery post with some of the ways that I plan my month/year in my Passion Planner!
I have used PP for a couple years now and honestly I don’t think I have ever stuck with anything like this before. I absolutely love it, and it helps me keep track of my life and my writing work so I never lose my head.
This year, I chose the green dated Passion Planner - you can get yours here - because LOOK AT THA...
