Hi WBPers (have we decided this is the name we’re calling everyone? If you have any suggestions then comment down below!)

You might have noticed we haven’t posted in the last month. That’s a good news, bad news situation. Good news is that a bunch of the WBP members have gotten really busy working on books we’ve signed with agents for or sold to publishers! The bad news is it means we have not had time to write anything new for the blog.

Don’t worry! It doesn’t mean we’re abandoning you all! But we do need to take a mini hiatus until the new year.

In the mean time we’ve put together a list of our favorite writing and publishing advice posts from both this blog and others! Think of it as our Holiday + Christmas + Hannukah + Wolfenoot + New Years gift to you!

And once we return in the new year we promise to host a new Critique Partner (CP) match up! Happy rest of 2018 and we’ll see you in the new year!
