The Hills & Valleys of the Writing Life

Edie here. Today you are in for a treat! One of my all-time favorite YA authors has agreed to share some of the things she's learned while traveling this writing road. She also has a new book, The Revisionary (don't you LOVE the title!) and I've shared all the information about it after the post. Please give her a warm TWC welcome!

The Hills & Valleys of the Writing Life
by Kristen Hogrefe @kjhogrefe 

Driving home during one of my Sunshine State’s summer downpours, I heard Tauren Wells’ “Hills and Valleys” on the radio. How well those lyrics fit the writer’s life!

Our writing journeys are often a series of highs and lows. I love seeing the wide-eyed excitement when my writer friends post that they’ve signed with an agent or contracted with a publishing house. I remember the almost surreal feeling when I signed a three-book contract with Write Integrity Press and celebrated with a friend over coffee.
