I haven&#8217;t given up on writing, but I am perusing other forms of creativity at the moment.

As long as she could hear her footsteps, perhaps she could convince herself that she wasn&#8217;t lost in this white void.

Smoke curled upwards from the wreckage, dark spirals working their way towards the heavens — but it was the ash on the wind that made it all real. The fragile grey fragments drifted lazily on &#8230; <a href="https://bethhobson.com/untitled-2/" class="more-link">Continue reading <span class="screen-reader-text">Untitled</span> <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

They&#8217;re fascinating creatures, writers, but they do have unique personality quirks. You&#8217;ve probably encountered utterly awkward and sometimes horrifying search bar suggestions. Don&#8217;t panic. &#8220;How to hide a body in the floorboards&#8221; has nothing to do with you, it&#8217;s one of their fictional characters they&#8217;re after — you&#8217;re &#8230; <a href="https://bethhobson.com/christmas-presents-for-writers/" class="more-link">Continue reading <span class="screen-reader-text">Christmas Presents for Writers</span> <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[While I was growing up, I didn&#8217;t have much experience with cats. At home we had dogs, and the few cats that family members/friends had were anti-social creatures. To me, they were creatures that existed for no other purpose than to demand food and poop in a box.

Not just any story, but a full-length novel. 92 thousand words. 25 chapters. It has a beginning, a middle and an end. (In that order and everything).
