Hi, I’m Javacia!

Hi, I’m Javacia Harris Bowser, the founder and editor of See Jane Write. No, my name is not Jane. And See Jane Write isn’t all about me. It’s about you and other women who want to be the authors of their own lives, women who want to write and live a life worth writing about. I’m a blogger, a full-time freelance writer and an award-winning columnist. I’m living my writing dreams and I want to help you do the same.

LEARN MORE ABOUT JAVACIA

  • “There have been so many things I’ve wanted in my life but never attained because I didn’t have a plan. And really, I didn’t know HOW to plan. As a result of lacking goal-setting skills, I lacked confidence. Since becoming a member of See Jane Write I’ve learned how to envision, realistically set goals and pursue my passions. See Jane Write will empower you by giving you useful information that will yield success!”

    — Kwoya Fagin Maples, author of MEND and finalist for the AWP’s Donald Hall Prize for Poetry

  • “I would say the fact that I wrote my book, Fat Girl Power is a miracle except with the tools I learned from Javacia and See Jane Write, it never seemed impossible. I used the planning tools to achieve step-by-step goals and got closer and closer to seeing my dream come to fruition, and then it did! My book launch party was one of the happiest days of my life, and I have Javacia and See Jane Write to thank for it!”

    — Jennifer King, blogger at StellarFashionandFitness.com and author of Fat Girl Power: How I Built Confidence Through Body Positivity, Fashion and Fitness

  • “When I joined See Jane Write, I knew if I wanted to write I needed like-minded friends to keep me writing, friends who understood the terror of an empty page and banged their heads on the desk at times in frustration. But I needed a community who cared for me as a person. Writing can be a lonely, soul-killing gig, and literary success an impossible dream. But See Jane Write makes all of that okay. It takes an impossible dream and turns it into real life.”

    — Leslie L. Golden, blogger at The Istoriaphile’s Corner and author of Seasons Suite

  • “To hold my dream in my hands and know it was birthed through my literary midwives means that this book is priceless to me. Javacia and See Jane Write have been a safe place for me to grow with other women writers through workshops, critique sessions, and group discussions. I am so grateful for my tribe!”

    — C.J. Wade, author of The Morning After

  • “The things I’ve learned in See Jane Write have literally changed my life. For instance, aside from figuring out how to blog and doing that for 9 years, I would have never even dreamed of self-publishing a book without going to an SJW event and hearing a member talk about her experience with self-publishing. I would have never felt confident enough to overcome my fear of public speaking without Javacia’s tips and tricks. And I wouldn’t have met people whom I now consider good, lifelong friends.”

    — Audrey Atkins, freelance writer, blogger at FolkwaysNowadays.com, and author of They Call Me Orange Juice

When you're pitching an article or essay idea to a When you're pitching an article or essay idea to a publication, be sure you answer these three questions:
⭐️ Why this? Explain why this is a story that needs to be shared.
⭐️ Why now? Consider the timeliness of the story. Try to tie your story to a holiday or to something going on in the news or in pop culture.
⭐️ Why you? Be sure to convey why you're the person to tell this story. Maybe you have lived experience, specialized education, or connections to sources that make you the writer for the job.

Just as a good skincare regimen will help you see a difference in your skin, a good writing regimen will help you see a difference in your work. 

@goodmolecules recently #gifted me these products and the package included tips on how to build a skincare routine. 

🧼 Step 1: Cleanse
⭐️ Step 2: Use toner (like this Niacinamide Brightening Toner)
💧 Step 3: Treat problem areas and apply serums (such as the GM Discoloration Correcting Serum
🧴 Step 4: Moisturize (I'm currently obsessed with this Silicone-Free Priming Moisturizer
☀️ Step 5: Apply sunscreen. 

So what's your writing routine looking like, boo?

🎯 Step 1: Set a specific writing goal so you will have some direction.
⏰ Step 2: Determine when you do your best writing and -- with that in mind -- schedule when you will work on your writing goal each day. 
💻 Step 3: Show up for yourself and DO THE WORK!
 ✍🏾 Step 4: Even if you get stuck on your WIP, keep writing. Try journaling prompts or Morning Pages (3 pages of freewriting) or just making lists of ideas or captivating words. 
📚 Step 5: Read, read, read so you will stay inspired. 

Thank you, Good Molecules, for the gifts and for the inspiration.
