Write Together,
Grow Together

I used to think that writing was something you had to do alone—tucked away in an isolated room, just writing and writing. But over time, I discovered something different: while that approach may work for some, I do my best when I have a shared goal and a supportive group to connect with. That’s where a writing challenge comes in.
 

In the 60-Day Writing Challenge, you’ll be writing independently, but you’ll have writing buddies aiming for the same goal. With a bit of healthy competition and a place to track your progress, the challenge creates a space where accountability and motivation come together. By sharing word counts and cheering each other on, you’ll find the energy to push through, day by day. And just like that—your writing journey is no longer a solo endeavor!

Hi! I'm Michelle, your Challenge Host.

I’ve always enjoyed creating stories, starting with small ones when I was seven. I primarily write and read YA Fantasy, but I’ve also developed a taste for non-fiction.
 

As a web designer and writer, I balance my work with my family's schedule. I love collaborating with authors and bookish professionals, which aligns with my passion for storytelling.
