Hello Internet!
I hope you had a Merry Christmas and I hope that you are enjoying the holiday season. I don’t have anything new for you today, but I did want to take a moment and look back on some of my favorite pieces of the year. I thought this would be a great way to reminisce while highlighting pieces that you may not have read when it was published. There are a few fan favorites on the list as well as some overlooked pieces that I think deserve a second glance. So here is a list my favorite Writing Prompt Pieces broken down by month. Hopefully you’ll find something new to read and enjoy or an old favorite to re-read. Either way, I hope you have a wonderful New Year and I’ll see you on January 7th, 2018 with the first Weekly Blog of the new year
