I've spent the week working on the next book in my Janey McCallister mystery series. And really enjoying it!

On my mind has been leaning more into gratitude.

I started my business helping writers 18 years ago, and there are so many amazing things that have happened that I don’t spend enough time being grateful for.

And when looking back, there is so much to be grateful for…

#1–YOU! Of course! My customers and 3,546 email subscribers always come first. That means you. Thank you so much for supporting me and working with me on your books.

#2– My Descript software that allows me to put out a weekly podcast, How to Write The Future, and to create fun videos, like the Ready to Edit series. (Love tools! What are your favorite productivity tools? Hit reply because I love learning about new tools.)

#3–Working with over 200 1-1 clients and over 2,700 students on their books. (Whoa! I never stopped to do that math before.) I have learned so much from each and every one of you. You stretch me as a teacher, coach, and editor, and keep me honest with my own writing. And because of your questions, I've created over 20 courses and written 5 books for writers.
