Introducing My NaNoWriMo Project(s)

Hey folks! So today I’m just gonna briefly tell you what my NaNoWriMo and KDWC projects are and also probably ramble a bit too much (Without spoilers! Don’t worry!) about these projects because … I AM EXCITED! Basically, the long and short of it is that I’m doing KDWC for the first half of it […]
Reflections on a Lack of Accomplishment

(Bear through my depressed mumblings and you’ll be treated with some delightful reveries on Jane Austen. I promise.) There’s so much I could choose to be depressed about this year.

It’s Almost October! (e.g. time to talk about summer and September)

So since it’s now the 26th, meaning it’s four short days away from October, we should absolutely do a recap of the summer AND of the beginning of September (+ some goals for the next month or so). That makes perfect sense, right? Okay, good. Glad we’re on the same page. I’m going to do […]
Are You Ready for a 5-Year Blogiversary? (Giveaway, Facebook Party, & More!)

Hello folks! Long time no see! I’ve been working on a lot of different things, but primarily my schedule, prepping for the new school year, and of course … Growing Writers.

Introducing Ivy Knight (Ivy Introspective Book Launch)

A brief note from Kellyn Roth (the author): This post is written by Ivy Knight. However, I wanted to come in beforehand and say that this has been a crazy month! And nothing is getting done for various reason. I feel a ton of guilt over this, as always, and I’m doing what I can […]
