Hi, I’m Bonita Gutierrez – actor/producer turned writer, delving into the gritty side of urban fantasy (but not without a bit of humor, at touch of horror, and a smidge of sci-fi). I co-author The Werewolf Whisperer series which my WW collaborator and I self- pubished in 2014. We’re currently wrapping up the series with books 4 and 5 to be released sometime next year (fingers crossed ;0). In addition to The Werewolf Whisperer, I’m working on two new solo series (releases TBD), managing my entertainment business, and writing a geek-centric blog: Bonita’s Geeky Blog-Fu! I look forward to meeting more of my fellow creatives here. Thanks.
Hi there! I’m Cammie. I just finished writing my first draft of my debut novel, On the Wings of a Word. My novel is a YA fantasy romance that is inspired by Norse mythology. Nope, it’s not Marvel-esque in any way. Just good, old-fashioned Norse mythology meets Gen Z teenager with a magical twist. I am glad to be here and can’t wait to interact with everyone!
Wow! You sound about as busy as me! Thanks so much for being here! What types of things do you struggle with as a writer/creator that someone here might be able to help with?
Hi everyone, and thank you, Allison, for creating this platform. I am a retired educator and professional musician living on Long Island. When retirement began last October (2023), I struggled with direction and what to do with my free time. My therapist, who is one of the two people I dedicated my novel, was the one who encouraged me to give writing a try. The therapist suspected the act of writing would fill the void of music creation. I didn’t have aspirations of publishing it at the time, but several people who read the story said it needed to be published. So, my debut novel, Raise The Flag, was released in July. I’m still in shock at the positive reception and the videos people on TT have posted. I’m currently working on the sequel; as of today (December, 2024), it is about half done. I’m expecting it to be on KDP by March 2025.
What a great story, and welcome! So glad you are here! It’s so interesting to see where each person started their writing journey and why. Feel free to browse around and if you have any questions just let me know! Also, feel free to post your writing and let us know what type of feedback you’d like!
Hi, everyone! My name is Kayleigh Slone and I’m a super new author. I just released my first novella in December of 2024: The Hedgehog of Fairy Glen. It’s a young adult fairytale set in Scotland and is inspired by Scottish folklore.
I’m so excited to be a part of this tribe, and I want to thank Allison for creating a space for writers like me! I’d love to connect with more authors and work on my craft. Thanks, and nice to meet everyone! 🩷
Hi Kayleigh! Thanks so much for being here. I can’t wait to read your book. Feel free to make a post if you have anything specific you’d like to talk about!
Hello everyone! I’m Joan Saez and I’ve been an aspiring writer since middle school. After I had children, I put my dream aside for a while. But about two years ago, I decided to jump back into writing, that love I had for the craft reignited again! I am currently working on… Multiple drafts, lol, but all within the same world, a world I can’t wait to share with you all! I’m into fantasy/sci-fi books/genres, I’m also diving into some steampunk themes. I love romance but I tend to dim down the spicy. I’m happy to be writing with you all!
