Ever read someone and think to yourself, "Welp, self. There it is. Goals. THIS is who I want to be when (if) I grow up." For me, Kathe Koja was that writer. SKIN was the book. What about you??? I want to know!

Monthly reminder: Many people have a book in them, but it takes a special kind of freak to leave the Land of Laziness, cross the Plains of Procrastination and Insecurity Mountain, find the Blade of No One Made You Do This, and use it to cut your chest open and yank that book out.

Midweek Substack up! (free) Resources for writers: open.substack.com/pub/readlate...
