It’s Tuesday, and TWT Blog is in the middle of a blog series about Our
Favorite Things. Slice of Life is definitely on that list. If you are a regular slicer, we know you share those feelings—and we thank you.
If you’re not (yet) a regular slicer and you stumbled upon today’s post out of curiosity, we hope you’ll consider joining us. Carving out space to support your own writing life might just become one of your favorite things this year, too.
August is the perfect time to establish a writing habit. . .
