I finally finished revamping my website and monthly newsletter. I'd love it if you'd sign up since I'm not on social media much anymore. I'll be talking about writing, sharing thoughts from reading slush and running a magazine, and more: victoriabrun.com/subscribe/ #5amwritersclub

I got my first ever ARC from @orbitbooks: The Last Soul Among Wolves, and it was exciting to get to read such a great book early! This is a solid follow-up to the amazing "The Last Hour Between Worlds."

I was at the park with my son, writing while he played. Another mom was reading nearby and asked me what I was writing. When I told her about my book she said, "Oh my God! I've never seen a book growing in the wild before." 😄

Anyone have tips for writing novellas? I can write novels and short stories, and I read a lot of novellas, yet I can't hit that word count. #WritingCommunity

The novel is now with my first readers. Now I just need to... finish the other novel that I abandoned at 46,000 words. #5amwritersclub

I'm not starting my next book instead of editing the last two chapters of my current WIP. Certainly not. #writingcommunity #amwriting

Goodreads should add "DNF" as an option, because I can't say I read it if I didnt finish it, but I still want to track it. #amreading
