30 Day Challenge: Blog Three Days a Week
I started writing full-time last month. Now that I have more time, I really want to spend more time working on my first passion project and the platform that started my writing career—Elana Lyn! I missed working on Elana Lyn as much as I was used to and I’m so excited to be back. This month (and hopefully forever) I’m going to focus on publishing at least three posts a week. I’ll have time to work on all my writing for other publications and my own little corner of the Internet.
