Reads for Writers

On September 27, 2018May 6, 2019 By Sarah Galyean JonesIn writingLeave a comment

Someone, somewhere, at some point in my life, once told me that it is possible to be a full-time writer and not starve.  And once I heard that, there was no looking back. I want to thank this person.  I also want to punch them, because now I am cursed.  There's no convincing me that …

"Always write when you are just a tad hungry."  This is a piece of writing advice I read somewhere or heard from someone maybe, like, ten years ago.  I'm not sure who originally said it, so if you know, please inform me, but I have to say...this is crap. Whenever I write when I am …
