It Will Be Beautiful

If you are a writer, an illustrator or creator of any kind, this Writers of the Future winner has a message for you.

You Don’t Need to Fit In | Kal M

Hey, you. Yes, you, the one fretting in front of the computer because you’re too nervous to start on that story you promised yourself you’d work on. Come here a second; I have something to tell you.

Ready? Okay, here it is: you’ll be fine.

Maybe today is the day you need to hear this. If not, put it in your pocket and save it until you do. 

Then pick yourself up and make something. It will be beautiful.

Two of my fellow Writers of the Future v39 winners have posted blogs about craft, and I wanted to share:

David and Elaine are great writers and terrific people, and both of those traits come through in these posts. Enjoy!

One More Day!

Tomorrow is the book birthday for Writers of the Future Volume 39, which includes my story “Piracy for Beginners” and much more. The publishers went all out, with 544 pages plus a full-color gallery for illustrations, and of course electronic and audiobook versions. 

Am I excited? I am. Am I eager for you to meet my fellow authors and illustrators, who are all amazing talents? They are! Will I remind you of these facts again tomorrow? Probably, because I think that anyone with an interest in science fiction and/or fantasy will find something to love in this collection. After reading the book and spending a week with the other new authors, I was impressed and I hope you will be too.

How would I describe the past couple of weeks?

Intense, educational, once in a lifetime!

I’ll need some time to process all this but until then, I recommend anyone interested in furthering their writing and career check out the Writers of the Future contest.
