Other News

2. Attempting to track word count by day. It isn’t my favorite thing, since I am a vibe writer.  But wanting to better understand what days of the week work better for me.

3. Running random little trails on IG to better understand engagement, views, etc. Pretty much the algorithm is a blackbox.

1. With my sales from September, I can buy 1.5 chipotle burritos! Reinvested that into working with Indie Author Collective instead. Follow them on socials to see my author spotlight this month!
