About

About me:  My name’s Beth. I’m a freshman in college on the East Coast of the United States.  I grew up with two older brothers and a stack of books.  I’m pretty much an all-around nerd and book-lover, especially of speculative fiction.

I love horses, writing, coffee, reading, having LOTR marathons, Jesus, my fuzzy TARDIS blanket, Hamilton, and that awesome feeling after a day of insane writing.  (Not necessarily in that order.)

About my writing:  I’ve now written two fantasy novels – the first is a high fantasy called The Sound of Color (info here) and the second was an urban fantasy thing with dragons that I wrote for NaNoWriMo in 2015 (post about that here).  I’m currently working on a contemporary about a bookstore that’s open 24-7 and holds wonders beyond your imagination.

About this blog:  I want this website to be a place of community.  A place where writers young and old can feel like they’re not alone.  (Teen writers especially.)

One of the most amazing discoveries in my writing journey was when I stumbled across a blog called Cracking the WIP.  It was so helpful for me to simply see how other writers did things.  I hope this blog can be similar to you, and that my ramblings can offer inspiration, determination, and maybe a feeling that you’re not alone in the universe.

Find me on all the places!
