How I Found the Write Path - Available Now!


After months of collecting entries, designing the cover, formatting the e-book, etc., How I Found the Write Path: A Collection of Letters is finally ready! It turned out to be such a wonderful resource. I'm so proud of you guys. :)

(If you missed the blogfest and details behind this project, please click here.) 

Please consider sharing any/all of this information in the coming weeks. I'd love for us to be able to encourage as many writers as possible.

About the Book:

 

Hey there, fellow writer!

Here’s the lowdown on this project: To celebrate my third blogoversary, I decided to pay it forward by inviting the writing/blogging community to help those just starting on their publishing journey. Why? Because it’s one of the most crucial periods in a writer’s life—full of nerves and hope we refuse to acknowledge. We’ve all been there.

That’s why over sixty of us have written letters to our past selves, candidly sharing things we don’t always discuss in public. The hope is that those of you who haven’t published will learn from our experiences. And those of you who have published? Well, you just might realize you’re not alone.

Let’s keep this going. :)
- Carrie Butler

P.S. I’d like to give a shout-out to my friend and fellow compiler, P.K. Hrezo. She really helped rally support for this project!
