Saturday Morning Post, Vol. 15
So I just found out about fiction ghostwriting this week…and I’m kinda weirded out? I understand ghostwriting for nonfiction.

Bad Habits I Have Developed as a Writer (this is gonna be fun I swear)
Been doing this writing thing for a while now (like…a decade). And after you do things for a while you develop some habits. Some good (like writing every day) and some bad. Like these ones. 1 Thinking up blog posts and story ideas as I fall asleep. Or am trying to fall asleep. Just, is…
