⏰ A list of good things for you
things i like that you will like too
Hello writer,
I’m running against the ragged edge of the day, but I have things to tell you about, so here’s a list!
Free writing conference, online, starting now!
At WorldShift: The SpecFic Writers' Conference 2026, I’m speaking on Why You Don't Write and What to Do About It, and it’s FREE to attend! (My session is on Thursday). The lineup is incredible, and includes speakers like KM Weiland, Gabriela Pereira, and Alison K. Williams. Grab your free ticket HERE. Aug 17-22.
Writing in the Junkyard shifts to one day, monthly!
I love running the all-day writing marathon of the Junkyard SO much, but two days is hard for most of us.
So it will now be EVERY FIRST SUNDAY OF THE MONTH. 7 hours of writing together in the beautiful junkyards of our everyday life. Just $49 (or included in Ink Village membership).
First session September 6th, 10am-5pm PT / 1pm-8pm ET.
Next round of my masterclasses are open for the last session this year! Grab your slot now if you’ve been waiting for this!
Show I love: Ride or Die, on Amazon Prime. We’re only two episodes in, and I don’t usually go for the excitement drama, but Hannah Waddingham and Octavia Spencer? GIMME. Their friend chemistry is incredible. IT IS SO GOOD. Also, Hannah is HOT.
Book I love: Flashlight, by Susan Choi. It’s long and winding and soooo good. I don’t want it to end. Multigenerational family saga that ranges through the US, Japan, and Korea. Intensely wonderful writing.
Word game I love: Outlier. Make 10 words from the Scramble, but get scored on how unique they are. Just play it. It’s the best word game out there, I think.
That’s it! I’m trying to get a terrible draft done, so please forgive the brevity of this!
Onward we write!
❤️ Rachael
