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.

Every time you wash your face I want you to think

Every time you wash your face I want you to think about your writing goals!

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.

This Coconut Passion Fruit Spritz from @drinksurel

This Coconut Passion Fruit Spritz from @drinksurely will be my +1 at all summer parties for the rest of the season. Made from de-alcoholized California rose’ wine, fruit juices and coconut water — this drink is unbelievably refreshing and perfect for anyone who wants to cut back on drinking this summer but doesn’t want to cut back on fun.

Are you struggling with your writing goals?

Maybe you have so many goals that you're not sure which one to tackle first.

Perhaps you know your top priority goal but you're not sure what steps you need to take to accomplish it.

Or you may be setting goals all the time but they're not specific or measurable, so you have no way to track your progress.

I'm going to help you with all of this and more on Tuesday, August 2 at 7 p.m. CT during my goal-setting workshop for Spark Writing Festival.

It's virtual and it's FREE. Head to the link in my bio to sign up.
