Posting a blog series of how God is changing me and drawing me deeper: every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, for the summer of 2025. Here's the first: https://t.co/mBE1pUgIAl

Acting in faith is the agency of miracles. When you act in faith , you are acting miraculously.

Today, I edited 765 words and wrote 572 more. So happy! It's happening! #amediting #amwriting #WritingCommunity #AIPChat #turtlewriters

@WunderlinDan Hi Dan thanks so much for the kind reply! It has indeed been ages. I had to get my life sorted before I could write I guess. But here's to this year being the year! My 2nd kid turns 2 in 8 days, teacher certification & 1st year of teaching behind me! I can finally focus!

[Jessica Petree @JessPetree]

@hannahxyang My goal is to finish my second draft of my first novel! I also wouldn't mind finding a writing buddy to chit chat with about writing / the writing process / muse etc. I'm doing a sci-fi/fantasy!

@Maria_Tureaud I really enjoyed "Half a Soul" by Olivia Atwater.

@jmsullivanbooks Mine is "Thump. The echoing sound of death." Rofl. That makes me laugh. Such an ominous first line. Might need tweaking.

[Jessica Petree @JessPetree]

@panifexben Congratulations!! Kudos to you for plans to edit! I'm just starting editing and have been sitting on my novel far too long. Looking forward to the process though! Best wishes on that chopping lol.

[Jessica Petree @JessPetree]

@jbharrisbooks I am on my 2nd draft of my first book! That 1st book is a real challenge, but this year is opening up to be a lot more free for me. Here's to hoping I can tackle it! Best wishes to your writing as well @jbharrisbooks !

#WritingCommunity #turtlewriters #AIPChat #amwriting Currently, I am building out my Act I to be longer and connect it with the rest of my story. I need another 10k words to bring Act I where it needs to be. I'm sitting at another 553 words written today and proud of it.

#AIPChat #WritingCommunity My name is Jess! I am (still) writing the same WIP, a fantasy / sci-fi mashup, giving a go at the second draft. Wish me luck. <3 This might be my year, people.

[Jessica Petree @JessPetree]

@AvrilMAalund Greatest writing accomplishment was finishing 80 pages of teacher certification paperwork but that's not the my WIP of my choice. Here's to hoping this year I can make a dent in my favorite. <3

@jmsullivanbooks I am back! #WritingCommunity What prompted the idea of my current WIP? Unfortunately, I've had it so long that I can no longer remember what sparked it. It's just a piece of me I carry. Here's hoping it can be birthed this year!

Well, well, well, hello 2024. It's been 2 years since I've posted. With teacher certification complete, I'm finally staring at a year that looks rather... free. Free at last!! Can I actually write now? Let's find out.
